AK HB269

Requires school districts to provide teachers who are nursing mothers with reasonable break periods to express breast milk for one year after their child's birth.

Mandates school districts provide a private and sanitary location, other than a bathroom, for expressing breast milk in the workplace.

Exempts school districts from requirements if they employ fewer than 50 persons and compliance would cause undue financial hardship relative to their financial resources.

School districts are not required to pay teachers for breaks used to express breast milk, unless otherwise required by contract.

Permits school districts to provide nursing mothers with additional rights beyond those specified in the statute.
