Hair Salons & Barbershops 2. Personal Care Services... 12. Each essential business and reopened business shall take all of the following actions if an employer becomes aware that an employee is diagnosed with COVID-19: a. Promptly notify the County Department of Public Health... c. Provide notice of the exposure to any employees, and contractors...
