Explicación
Labor Code §1198 provides that the maximum hours and standard conditions of labor fixed by the Industrial Welfare Commission's Wage Orders are the legal limits, and employing anyone under prohibited conditions is unlawful. The Wage Orders (industry- and occupation-specific) carry the force of law, cover most private employees (including hourly, piece-rate, and many salaried workers), and set enforceable minimum standards.
