In an opinion with far-reaching implications for California employers and one that will change the posture of California’s “suitable seating” law, the California Supreme Court recently provided further guidance on how one of California’s previously obscure Wage Order provisions, which requires that “all working employees shall be provided with suitable seats when the nature of the work reasonably permits the use of seats,” should be applied. See Kilby v. CVS Pharmacy, California Supreme Court (S215614) (April 4, 2016).
