AI Summary

This bill would require all applicants for new licenses as aestheticians, barbers, cosmetologists, electrologists, or manicurists in Massachusetts to complete 1 hour of domestic violence and sexual assault awareness education as part of their initial licensing requirements. Additionally, all applicants for renewal of existing licenses in these occupations would be required to complete 1 hour of domestic violence and sexual assault awareness continuing education.
