## Definition

A seating claim is a legal action initiated by an employee against their employer for not providing reasonable seating to employees who perform tasks that can be done while seated. The claim typically arises when an employer does not comply with applicable laws, which require employers to provide seating to employees when the nature of their work reasonably permits the use of seats. Employers can face liability for failing to provide seating when required, which can result in physical discomfort or injury to employees who are required to stand for long periods of time.
