MilkMate
for Employers
The benefits of implementing MilkMate
Comply with Workplace Protection Regulations
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) and recently passed PUMP Act mandate (varying by region) that corporations provide workplace protections for working moms who need adequate time and space to breast pump throughout the workday.
MilkMate helps employers ensure full regulatory compliance in this area and provides attractive employment incentives to ensure the well-being and satisfaction of valued employees.
Recruit and Retain Talent
Employee turnover is a costly problem. It costs roughly 20% of a salary to replace a lost worker and – in addition to the financial cost – business flow, output, morale, and reputation suffer as well. MilkMate is a tool that enables employers to retain their key talent by signaling that they support both building a family and a career by making return from maternity leave easier for breast pumping employees.
Support and Promote Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI)
MilkMate’s turnkey solution is exactly what employers are looking for in today’s working world. As more employers face pressure for proof of Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) policies, attempt to increase promotion around health and wellness, and push for inclusion and diversity initiatives, MilkMate’s offering is a tangible benefit that can solve for all of these ongoing needs.
By implementing MilkMate, employers proactively investing in tools and resources that minimize the need for employees to choose between their family and their long term career—signaling to current and future employees that they care.
Improve Employee Productivity
MilkMate benefits employee well-being and productivity. The MilkMate saves nursing moms returning to work a minimum of 45 per day—that’s equivalent to 180 hours or 23 workdays of time and cost savings per year. Not to mention, the additional minimum of 15-20 minutes that it saves working moms outside of the workplace (cleaning, preparing and packing gear) every day.
A Shifting Regulatory Climate
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) passed back in 2010 and the recent PUMP Act passed in December 2022 require employers provide workplace protections for working moms who need adequate time and space to breast pump throughout the workday.
MilkMate helps employers ensure full regulatory compliance in this area and provides attractive employment incentives to ensure the well-being and satisfaction of valued employees.
