Since 2016, Bepensa, as a Socially Responsible Company, has been committed to providing quality, warm, and adequate spaces that allow its employees to fully exercise their right to breastfeed at its main work centers.
Having adequate breastfeeding spaces in the workplace has significant benefits, not only for mothers and their children, but also for companies committed to this issue, as it strengthens a positive and inclusive organizational culture.
Three out of 10 babies are breastfed during their first six months of life, and since Mexico ranks lowest in Latin America in this practice, the federal government, through the Ministry of Labor, is promoting the creation of lactation rooms in government offices and businesses.
Bepensa, as a Socially Responsible Company, and with a clear focus on its people pillar, has implemented decisive actions in support of breastfeeding since 2016 with the installation of lactation rooms in its main work centers.
Today we have numerous lactation centers in both Mexico and the Dominican Republic.
Bepensa is working closely with the Municipal Nutrition and Diabetes Care Center to ensure and certify that it has the necessary breastfeeding practices in its workplaces.
Bepensa's lactation rooms in Mérida will join the five lactation rooms that the municipal government opened in 2019 in companies, shopping malls, universities, and public places, supporting the practice of breastfeeding as an ideal form of nutrition.
Bepensa is proud to reaffirm its commitment to our people and to be part of an initiative that permanently promotes comprehensive well-being for a healthier life.
