36-15-51.3. Sharing of work stations, other space permitted--Conditions--Equipment--Additional space not required--Responsibility for violation.

A person who operates a licensed salon may allow more than one licensed cosmetologist, licensed esthetician, or licensed nail technician to share a work station or other space within the salon, provided that:

(1)    Each individual maintains the minimum equipment and sanitary requirements set forth by the commission;

(2)    The individuals sharing the work station or space do not provide services at the work station or in the shared space at the same time; and

(3)    If the individuals share a work station or other space within a booth, each individual possesses a booth license for the respective services that the individual will provide.

Nothing in this section prohibits individuals sharing a work station or other space within a salon from sharing equipment, provided that the equipment meets the minimum standards set forth by the commission.

If individuals are sharing a work station or other space within a salon in accordance with this section, the commission may not require additional working space other than that required for a single licensee.

If the commission finds, upon inspection, a violation of any provision of this chapter or rules promulgated thereunder, and the commission cannot determine which individual sharing the work station or other space committed the violation, the person operating the licensed salon is responsible for the violation.
