Of course you can and should make your boss aware of the law if there is no space for you, or if you’re being forced to pump in the bathroom: Section 4207 of the Affordable Care Act covers your rights (and even companies that have fewer than fifty employees are obligated to comply unless they can prove that it would be an “undue hardship”). One added complication: Only employees who qualify as nonexempt under the FLSA (Fair Labor Standards Act) are covered. So if you’re management, and not paid hourly, federal law might not be on your side.
