Inadequate provision of a lactation room at the workplace contributed to the low rate of exclusive breastfeeding among working mothers. The objective of this paper is to identify the design gaps in the lactation room at the workplace in Selangor. The results suggest that adopting the first step of the user-centred design (UCD) method enables the identification of design gaps in the lactation room: location, room size, allocation of table and chair, milk storage, sink, and additional storage facilities.</p><p>Keywords: breastfeeding, working mothers, lactation room, user-centred design</p><p><em>eISSN: 2398-4287 </em><em>© 2022.
