Law firms love compliments for their professionalism, gender neutrality, Rainbow ticks and their efforts to save the planet – but now Anderson Lloyd have also become a ‘Breastfeeding Friendly Workplace’, earning the support and hearty congratulations from the Canterbury Breastfeeding Advocacy Service.
Anderson Lloyd are believed to the first firm in New Zealand to be such a breastfeeding friendly place and it comes in time for something called World Breastfeeding Week 2017.
Anderson Lloyd is evidently committed to providing support for staff planning to combine breastfeeding with their working lives, according to the Canterbury group who issued a press release noting that “Breastfeeding supportive businesses are more likely to retain their valuable and experienced staff, and enabling working women to breastfeed is a win-win situation that builds loyal employees, as well as supporting infant and mother health and wellbeing.
“Anderson Lloyd has a breastfeeding policy, resources for staff information, a comfortable and private room for women to breastfeed or express breast milk, and a fridge for breast milk storage. World Breastfeeding Week #WBW2017, which is coordinated worldwide by the World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA) calls on everyone to work together in partnership to support breastfeeding women.”
I must congratulate you on providing Brest Feeding friendly environment as this is the best gift a mother can give to her kids,
