RMH Compass Trend Report: April 2025
RMH Compass Trend Reports deliver timely insights drawn from our proprietary dataset on reproductive and maternal health benefits—helping employers understand where they stand, how they compare, and what steps to take to better support their workforce.
Lactation support isn’t just a perk—it’s a legal requirement, an indicator of culture, and a competitive advantage. The PUMP Act sets clear expectations: all employers must offer reasonable break time and a private space for lactating employees.
But our proprietary data shows many companies are still behind— not out of negligence, but due to lack of clarity, operational barriers, or assumptions about employee needs.
In this report, we share key insights from our employer assessment, including:
Less than half of companies provide both a compliant space and written policy
1 in 5 companies currently have no accommodations in place
Companies that go beyond compliance see real gains in retention, morale, and equity
There are new solutions available to employers to ensure compliance and a high-standard for workers
This report is designed to give HR and benefits leaders the data, examples, and tools needed to move from uncertainty to action—and build workplaces where compliance and care go hand in hand.
