Introduced Text

Michigan HB6057 mandates employers to provide suitable seats to employees under certain conditions.

Michigan HB6057 requires employers to provide suitable seats to employees performing work if it is reasonable for them to use a seat while working. A suitable seat is defined as a chair, stool, bench, or similar object with back support. If it is not reasonable for an employee to use a seat while working, the employer must provide a seat nearby. Employers cannot prohibit employees from using a seat unless the employee is actively working. Violating employers face a civil fine of $250 per aggrieved employee per two-week period.
