1. What role would you like them to play in this evaluation?
Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Management Personnel
a. Generate Inclusive Policies.
b. Monitor program compliance.
c. Encourage open communication.
d. Advocate for welfare of employees.
CEO of any company, but one where 70% of the hotel's employees are low-income women of reproductive age with children <3
Years old. Research has shown that these women are three times less likely to continue breastfeeding and follow World Health
Organization (WHO) recommendations. Therefore, it is imperative to implement workplace policies to promote diversity and
inclusion to ensure that all employees receive fair benefits, including underserved women and women currently breastfeeding. Also,
as a company officer, I regularly monitor compliance with World Health Organization recommendations and regulations to ensure
that women receive programs effectively. Thus, if any problems arise, the appropriate person should be able to respond promptly to
correct or modify the elements that are not working for commitment and well-being. Finally, adopting an open communication
policy within the company ensures that everyone expresses their concerns while maintaining the anonymity of their complaint.
Pediatricians
a. Source of primary data to breastfeeding mothers
b. Ensure American Association of Pediatrics (AAP)
Studies show that 94% of low-income mothers return to work within three months of delivery. New AAP guidelines recommend
breastfeeding until the baby is two years old. Pediatricians could provide valuable data to mothers of all ages to help them
understand the breastfeeding process, including medications to avoid or take while breastfeeding and debunk myths associated with
breastfeeding and work. Considering the medical point of view, it highlights the overlooked factors in determining whether women
should return to work with privileges to express breast milk in safe, discreet environments that ensure they can take it home and
feed their children.

Employees
a. Have rights enabling return to work and continue breastfeeding.
b. Return to work understanding the will be able to continue breastfeeding their children.
c. Feel respected and appreciated as they company appoints time, locations, and pumping tools to ensure
adequate pumping and storage of the milk.
From the women's point of view, it is essential to have the support of the company they work for because they feel safe returning to
work. In other words, they will not fear losing their job in the face of the ambivalence of returning to work because they will have
time, places, and tools that will allow them to express breast milk adequately, and they will have safe places to store it. Therefore,
the leading role of women and stakeholders in this issue underscores that they deserve rights and are respected regardless of the
sector in which they work.

3. Workplace Lactation Program
José A. Colón
Issues stakeholders face regarding challenges or uncertainties during program evaluation include the obligation to comply with
program monitoring reports. Since the Louisiana Department of Public Health would fund the CEO/Manager program, it would entail
explaining to public authorities and disclosing conflicts of interest. This initiative would not only pose challenges and difficulties for
senior executives but also for healthcare professionals. In the first case, having subject matter experts demonstrate and execute an
evidence-based program could be ideal. However, for healthcare professionals, the latter would represent a loss of patients, as mothers
would receive the necessary care without leaving their workplace and at no cost. Ultimately, the challenges or difficulties mothers face
who decide to breastfeed full-time correspond to the fact that the measures or programs are not approved in the workplace. It can be
added that, by not achieving the program's implementation, these women's rights would continue to be neglected, and inequalities for
the children of mothers from the most disadvantaged sectors of society would continue.
