«Mothers nursing their infants at a cafe in Oslo. Norwegian law allows
breast-feeding in public places as well as a two-hour break each
workday.»
Actually, public breastfeeding isn't mentioned in any Norwgian law. So
in essence, NY women are better protected by law than Norwegian women
when it comes to BFIP. Perhaps someone should write an e-mail to the
editor and tell them that BFIP is protected by law in NY?
The law requirement when it comes to breastfeeding breaks is one hour
off every without pay, but I guess that more than half of Norwegian
women get the two hours off with pay deal. All public employers have
to offer this, and many others give it to keep good employees.
