Occupational safety: live events.

Summary
Existing law establishes the Division of Occupational Safety and Health in the Department of Industrial Relations, and charges the division with the enforcement of various laws affecting safe working conditions, including the California Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1973. This bill would require a contracting entity, as defined, to require an entertainment events vendor to certify for its employees and employees of its subcontractors that those individuals have complied with specified training, certification, and workforce requirements, including that employees involved in the setting up, operation, or tearing down of a live event at its public events venue, as defined, have completed prescribed trainings of the United States Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration. The bill would require the division to enforce those provisions by issuing a citation and a notice of civil penalty, as specified, and deposit those funds in the Occupational Safety and Health Fund.
