Michigan passess tanning salon regulations
December 15th, 2008 by tantowel
The Michigan Legislature passed Bill 4146 yesterday. The bill was drafted to help reduce skin cancer among those who frequent tanning salons. It calls for tougher restrictions and oversight of tanning salons like listing potential health consequences, larger warning signs, and informed consent forms.
The new law also requires onsite parental consent for minors who wish to use tanning beds. Michigan joins the ranks of 25 other states who have at least some form of restriction in place for tanning minors.
