(1) The Barbering and Cosmetology Act provides for the licensure and regulation of barbers, cosmetologists, estheticians, manicurists, electrologists, and apprentices by the State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology. The act requires the licensure of any person, firm, or corporation operating an establishment engaged in a practice regulated by the board, as specified, and requires a licensed establishment to comply with various requirements. That act requires the board to inspect an establishment within 90 days after issuing the establishment a license and requires the board to maintain a program of random and targeted inspections of establishments, as specified. A violation of the Barbering and Cosmetology Act is a misdemeanor unless a specific penalty is otherwise provided. This bill would require, on and after July 1, 2017, an establishment licensed by the board to post a notice in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, and Korean regarding workplace rights and wage and hour laws, as described in paragraph (2) , in a conspicuous location in clear view of employees and where similar notices are customarily posted. The bill would require the board to inspect an establishment for compliance with that requirement when it conducts the above-mentioned inspection, and would provide that a violation of that posting requirement is punishable as an administrative fine. (2) Existing law creates the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement within the Department of Industrial Relations, and vests the division with the general duty of enforcing labor laws, including those relating to wage claims and employer retaliation. Existing law provides that the Labor Commissioner is the Chief of the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement. This bill would require the Labor Commissioner, on or before June 1, 2017, to create a model posting notice in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, and Korean pertaining to the workplace rights and wage and hour laws for employees of establishments licensed under the Barbering and Cosmetology Act. The bill would require the model posting notice to be developed using plain language and would require the commissioner to post the notice in all of the specified languages on the commissioner's Internet Web site, as specified. The bill would require the notice to contain, at a minimum, certain information, including laws regarding overtime compensation. The bill would require the model notice to be translated into specified languages.
