It’s not just in one’s own office that it’s a problem.  I know of a woman who came back from maternity leave, was in depos that opposing counsel noticed of witnesses adverse to her client, and he refused to take a break during the depos so she could pump.

Honestly, McLeod, there are site policies prohibiting certain crude language, threats of violence, and so forth, but just because there are none requiring a certain level of maturity doesn’t mean your utterly adolescent comment is acceptable.  Shame on you.

I think it should be seriously considered (availability of this benefit could also boost employee morale).

Hard to believe that laws could be needed for this.
