The Public Service Commission of Zimbabwe implemented a new policy on October 23 to support breastfeeding civil servants.

The policy allows eligible public servants with children up to two years old to travel with their babies and a minder during approved official trips. The relevant ministry pays for the transport, meals, and accommodation for the minder. The Zimbabwe Gender Commission commended the move, stating that the Public Service Commission responded to its advice.

The Zimbabwe Gender Commission previously described the challenges faced by breastfeeding mothers in the workplace as an urgent gender equality concern.
