    "content": "Employees are as good as employers. If the environment under which employees work is not supportive, definitely they will not give their best at work. When you are a young mum and you know your child is hurting somewhere, especially with a nanny who is not caring enough and who punishes innocent children, you will always be disturbed at work. It is because you are not in control of what is happening back at home. However, when you know your child is well at home, it gives you comfort and satisfaction hence you are more motivated to give your best at your place of work and that increases productivity. Once productivity is increased, the issue of unemployment will be addressed. It is simply a chain of activities. Once we address that, then production will go up. It is important that we become sensitive to some provisions in this Bill. I am imagining Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs). We may pass a law that binds businesses and companies to create a place for lactating mothers. We could be closing small companies which have just started to grow. Small companies cannot afford some of the expenses required of them. To effect that provision of the law, you need space and we all know that space costs money. Other than that space to be used for breastfeeding, you need to have other equipment like fridges. You will also need to employ people to take care of the children, keep the place clean and so on. That is a costly affair and many companies cannot afford to provide all that, especially at the formative stages."
