Washington Administrative Code › Title 296 - Labor and Industries, Department of › Chapter 296-831 - Adult entertainer safety › Section 296-831-100 - Purpose and scope

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
This chapter applies to all adult entertainment
				establishments.
In addition to this chapter, chapter 296-800 WAC Safety and
				health core rules, chapter 296-24 WAC General safety and health standards, and
				chapter 296-62 WAC General occupational health standards contain safety and
				health rules that also apply to adult entertainment establishments. Similarly,
				other special industry focused chapters (e.g., chapter 296-832 WAC Late night
				retail worker crime prevention, chapter 296-155 WAC construction, etc.) and
				special hazard focused chapters (e.g., chapter 296-876 WAC ladders, chapter
				296-880 WAC fall protection, etc.) complement the rules found in this chapter
				and may apply depending on operations being performed.
Note:
All of the requirements in this rule work in
						  conjunction with the Accident Prevention Program (APP) rules in WAC
						  296-800-140
						  through
						  296-800-14025
						  within the safety and health core rules. Therefore, an adult entertainment
						  establishment's fully compliant Accident Prevention Program (APP) will cover
						  the following (in addition to other general safety and health considerations
						  applicable to all businesses):
* Entertainer orientation on panic button location,
						  use, and maintenance, if any;
* How to add a problematic customer to your complaint
						  log/blocklist;
* How to report work-related hazards, injuries, unsafe
						  conditions, or unsafe practices;
* The proper use and care of personal protective
						  equipment (PPE); and
* What to do in an emergency, including how to leave
						  the workplace.
Adult entertainment establishments are also required to
						  regularly hold safety and health meetings for the purpose of communicating and
						  evaluating safety and health issues in the workplace, including the evaluation
						  of your APP to determine whether improvements are necessary to ensure that it
						  is effective in practice. Specific requirements differ somewhat between large
						  and small employers. See WAC
						  296-800-130
						  Safety committees/safety meetings-Summary, for details.

				is charged or accepted for entertainment and whether or not the person is an
				employee under
				RCW
				 49.17.020.

Washington Administrative Code › Title 296 - Labor and Industries, Department of › Chapter 296-831 - Adult entertainer safety › Section 296-831-300 - Panic button requirements

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
(1)
			 Adult entertainment establishments must provide a panic button in each room in
			 the establishment in which an entertainer may be alone with a customer, and in
			 bathrooms and dressing rooms. An entertainer may use the panic button if the
			 entertainer has been harmed, reasonably believes there is a risk of harm, or
			 there is another emergency in the entertainer's presence. The entertainer may
			 cease work and leave the immediate area to await the arrival of
			 assistance.
(2) Panic buttons, and
			 their associated alarm(s), must be silent (discreet) at the entertainer's point
			 of use, while still effectively alerting whomever you have determined to be
			 responsible for responding to emergencies.
Exception:
Panic buttons that trigger a recognizable
						  (audible/visual/tactile) alarm at the entertainer's point of use may be used in
						  specific locations within an establishment where alarms are required but only
						  if you have assessed your business operations and alarm system with your
						  required safety and health committee (see WAC
						  296-800-130
						  Safety committees/safety meetings-Summary) and the committee has unanimously
						  determined that such an alarm would be more effective for a particular location
						  within your establishment where an alarm is required. In such cases, this
						  determination is limited to a particular location within your establishment and
						  must be documented along with other required safety committee
						  documentation.
.
(3)
			 Adult entertainment establishments must test and maintain your alarm system
			 regularly to ensure that it will function as intended when needed.
(a) Testing must be performed at least
			 annually, or at whatever interval is recommended by the alarm system
			 manufacturer (this information is typically found in the owner's
			 manual).
(b) Adult entertainment
			 establishments must keep a record that includes the dates of all testing or
			 maintenance performed and any pertinent details such as errors corrected or
			 adjustments made.
Note:
Appendix A contains a nonmandatory panic button
						  checklist that adult entertainment establishments can use to assist in
						  identifying panic button and response procedure related hazards in their
						  workplace, and to aid establishments in evaluating what performance criteria
						  will address the violence-based hazards in their establishment.

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
(1) Adult entertainment establishments must
			 make sure that an alarm system, with a distinctive (not confused with fire
			 alarm, etc.) signal, is installed for the purposes of communicating entertainer
			 violence related emergencies to employer-designated responders.
(2) Adult entertainment establishments must
			 make sure alarm systems:
(a) Communicate the
			 use/triggering of panic buttons.
(b) Identify the location of all panic
			 buttons which have been used/triggered.
(c) Latch, or continue to both communicate
			 the use/triggering of panic buttons, and identify the location of panic buttons
			 which have been used/triggered, without requiring ongoing action(s) of the
			 person that used the panic button. For example, entertainers must not be
			 required to hold a button down to keep the alarm triggering.
(d) Are recognizable above surrounding noise
			 and/or light levels by establishment designated responder(s) in all relevant
			 portions of the establishment in which designated responders are acting in this
			 role. Areas far enough away from an alarm, or where building materials or walls
			 are in the alarms path, may reduce the effectiveness of the alarm to the point
			 that it is no longer recognizable.
