How many Lactation Spaces do Employers need?

National Institutes of Health (NIH) estimates an employer should provide around 6 lactation spaces for every 1,000 female employees. These numbers are based on the pregnancy rate of 5-7%, a breastfeeding initiation rate of 75%, and most lactation sessions occur during work hours.
