Rest Time for Women Nursing Twins Under 12 Months Old?

View Post in Vietnamese: >> Thời gian nghỉ ngơi của phụ nữ nuôi con sinh đôi con dưới 12 tháng tuổi?

Inquiry: According to current legal regulations, female employees who are nurturing a child under 12 months old are entitled to a 60-minute break, which is still counted as working time. Therefore, I would like to ask: In the case where a female employee gives birth to twins and is nurturing children under 12 months old, will the break time be extended or exceed 12 months?

According to Clause 4 Article 137 of the 2019 Labor Code:

Female employees are entitled to a 30-minute break each day during menstruation, and a 60-minute break each day for breastfeeding children under 12 months old during working hours. These break times are fully paid according to the labor contract.

=> Therefore, according to the above regulations, during the period of breastfeeding children under 12 months old, female employees are entitled to a 60-minute break each day, which is counted as working hours. If you have twins, your daily break time remains 60 minutes and lasts until your children turn 1 year old.

Sincerely.
