The law does speak to "uniformed or otherwise identified employee or contractor of a fire department, hospital or police station when such an individual is inside the premises and on duty". Given this, contractors are encouraged to talk to their respective hospital, police or fire department to learn of their respective role, if any, relating to the Safe Delivery of Newborns law.
