Nursing Mothers
Cliff’s Amusement Park abides by New Mexico state law which allows for “the use of a
breast pump in the workplace” for all nursing mothers. The law states, in order to foster
the ability of a nursing mother who is an employee to use a breast pump in the
workplace, an employer, including the state and its political subdivisions, shall provide
the following:

• A space for using the breast pump that is:
o Clean and private;
o Near the employee’s workspace; and
o Not a bathroom; and
o Flexible break times

Cliff’s Amusement Park is not liable for storage of breast milk or payment for additional
breaks beyond the established break time the nursing mother may need to take.
Payment is not required for any overtime acquired due to nursing mothers’ need to use
the breast pump outside of regularly scheduled break times.

As an employer of over 50 employees, Cliff’s Amusement Park also abides by the
Federal “Break Time for Nursing Mothers Provision” which requires employers to
provide a nursing mother reasonable break time to express breast milk for a nursing
child for 1 year after the child’s birth and a place, other than a bathroom, that is shielded
from view and free from intrusion from co-workers and the public to express milk. This
provision does not require Cliff’s Amusement Park to compensate an employee
receiving reasonable break time to express milk for any work time spent for such
purposes.
