Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Swimming Facility Act. Requires all employers operating outdoor aquatic centers to provide access to independently-purchased structures that provide sufficient shade to cover the entire body; make reasonable efforts to avoid exposing employees to excessive sun exposure during peak ultraviolet hours; permit employees to regularly apply sunscreen; not restrict employees from wearing sun-protective clothing; and not compel aquatic center employees to wear sun-protective clothing. Provides that, if an employee chooses to wear sun-protective clothing, the employer may require the sun-protective clothing to be within the guidelines the employer sets for appropriate work attire. Requires the Department of Public Health to provide documents to employers so that the employers may inform employees about cancer risks associated with ultraviolet radiation, the significance of sun protection throughout life, and the importance of regularly monitoring their skin for potentially worrisome changes.
