According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly a third of working moms return to work in less than a week after childbirth and many of them work more than 35 hours per week.
This high rate of women going back to work after having a baby would generally be impressive, however, research shows that working mothers breastfeed for a shorter length of time than non-working moms.
Only 10% of women who start breastfeeding their babies initially and then return to work full-time will still be breastfeeding six months later.
Number one obstacle to continuing breastfeeding after returning to work is inadequate workplace support and lactation services and suboptimal accommodation.
According to our survey where we polled employees of 77 Colorado companies, a staggering 44% of respondents answered "nothing" when we asked what it is that their company did well for new mothers.
Colorado Worksite Infant Feeding Survey conducted to examine breastfeeding policies among Colorado organizations showed a shocking result of only 28% of respondents reporting that their company has a lactation support program in place.

Besides supporting new mothers returning to work for your company and positioning your brand as family-focused, a well-planned corporate lactation program will help you fulfill legal requirements to support breastfeeding women in the workplace.
