BREAK TIME FOR NURSING MOTHERS
Mission supports breastfeeding mothers by accommodating the mother who wishes to express
breast milk during her workday when separated from her nursing child. The provisions of this
policy meet the requirements of the FLSA as it relates to breaks for nursing mothers.
In compliance with applicable laws, Mission will provide a reasonable unpaid break time as
frequently as needed to express breast milk for a nursing child up to one (1) year after the child’s
birth. Mission will also provide a place, other than a bathroom, that is shielded from public view
and free from intrusion from co-workers and other public, for a nursing mother to use for the
purpose of expressing breast milk. Employees will not be retaliated against for exercising their
rights under this policy. Employees who have nursing needs are encouraged to speak with their
supervisor/manager or the People Operations Department about their needs.
TIMEKEEPING
Employees are to be compensated for all hours worked and non-exempt employees must
completely and accurately record all time worked. To that end, all non-exempt employees are
required to clock in and clock out each day using the Mission timekeeping system. After clocking
in for work, if an employee leaves the facility on non-Mission business, then he/she must clock
out prior to leaving the building. The following rules govern the time keeping device:
➢ Each employee must never log in or out for another employee or allow anyone to log in or
out for such employee. Violators of this policy will be subject to corrective action, up to
and including termination of employment. If an employee fails to log in or out, then such
employee must notify his/her supervisor/manager as soon as possible for time correction
and proper logging of actual hours worked.
➢ If an employee fails to clock in and out and does not take action to improve his/her conduct,
it may lead to further corrective action, up to and including termination of employment.
➢ Proper personal time keeping is a matter of law and your responsibility. Each employee
must make sure that his/her time records are accurate and reflect the actual time worked. If
an employee does not record his/her time accurately, then such employee may be subject
to corrective action, up to and including termination of employment.
➢ Employees are not permitted to clock in before their normal start time or to clock out or
stop work before their normal quitting time without the proper approval from their
supervisor/manager. Non-exempt employees must “clock in” before doing any work for
Mission.
➢ If an employee is ever asked not to report time worked or work off the clock by a
supervisor/manager or a member of management of Mission, the employee must report it
immediately to the head of the People Operations or his/her designee. No employee is
permitted to perform work “off the clock” at any time. Violations of this policy are subject
to corrective action, up to and including termination of employment.
