Nevada Legislature Enacts New Law For Nursing Mothers

Nevada Legislature Enacts New Law For Nursing Mothers 


Assembly Bill 113, recently signed by the Governor, requires private and public employers to provide nursing mothers a reasonable break time and a clean, private place to express breast milk. Unlike the Pregnant Workers' Fairness Act where a place to express breast milk may be a reasonable accommodation, this new law expressly requires that all covered employers provide such a location to nursing mothers. These new requirements become effective July 1, 2017. 
 
Who Is Covered?
 
This law provides rights and protections to one narrow group of employees:  nursing mothers of children under 1 year of age.  It applies to most public and private employers with the following limited exceptions:  
  • If a private employer has fewer than 50 employees, it may be exempted if the law's requirements would impose an undue hardship on the employer, considering the size, financial resources, nature and structure of the business of the employer. 
  • An employer who is a contractor licensed pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 624 is not subject to the requirements of this law with regard to an employee who is performing work at a construction jobsite that is located at least 3 miles from the regular place of business of the employer.
  • The Department of Corrections is not required to comply with this law but is encouraged to do so to the extent practicable.

Nevada Legislature Passes New Employment Law For Pregnant Workers 

  
At the end of the recently concluded session, the Nevada Legislature passed and the Governor signed the Nevada Pregnant Workers' Fairness Act that applies to employers of 15 or more employees.  The Act expands an employer's obligations to accommodate pregnant female employees and applicants as well as those who are suffering from a condition related to pregnancy, childbirth, or a related medical or mental condition. While the majority of the Act's requirements do not become effective until October 1, 2017, an employer's obligation to post a notice of female employees' rights under the Act became effective when the Act was signed on June 2, 2017. The Act's notice requirements are detailed below.
