Practice question
An employer denies lactation breaks to a nursing employee solely because she is probationary rather than regular. Does RA 10028's definition support that limitation?
- Yes; only permanent staff can be nursing employees.
- Yes; probationary workers are never protected by labor law.
- No; the definition covers a nursing female worker regardless of employment status.
- Only if the employee buys company infant formula.
- The right arises only after a workplace election.
