LABOUR LAW PROTECTION OF BREASTFEEDING WOMEN IN THE LAW OF THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA AND THE EUROPEAN UNION

Summary/Abstract: Labour law protection of breastfeeding women in the law of the Republic of Serbia and the European Union is important in terms of preserving their safety and health at the workplace, as well as in terms of protecting and improving the health of the child. Measures that regulate the rights and obligations of breastfeeding women at the workplace aim to enable the establishment of a balance between the requirements of a professional and private nature, or an effective fulfillment of their professional obligations and lactation activities. Due to the risk of occurrence of direct or indirect discrimination in the workplace of a breastfeeding woman, special attention is given to anti-discrimination measures, which should prevent the denial of guaranteed rights in practice. There is a number of factors that may contribute to successfully combining employment and breastfeeding, such as: relevant information to and support of the employer and other employees, flexible working hours, and normative regulation of this area by the employer.
