The law says that salons and barbershops must consider all risks to their employees, clients and anyone who may be affected by their activities. You must do what you can to minimise these risks. Coronavirus is a new type
of risk that must now be assessed along with the usual risks that are present in a salon or barbershop.
Stay legal
Failure to complete risk assessments (including a coronavirus risk assessment) or to put in place sufficient measures to control the risks identified, could be a breach of health and safety law. This could lead to enforcement action and may affect your future licence applications (eg a skin piercing licence).
