How Nail Salon Workers Are Transforming Their Industry
How Nail Salon Workers Are Transforming Their Industry
A Seat At The Table: Nail Salon Minimum Standards Council Act
New York’s nail salon industry is facing a systemic crisis that requires a systemic solution.
That’s why NY’s nail salon workers are rallying behind the Nail Salon Minimum Standards Council Act (S1800/A378), landmark legislation to give workers a seat at the table alongside government and small business owners to collaborate on new standards across the industry.
If passed, the legislation will:
- Build a new foundation for the entire industry to support thriving, sustainable communities and nail salon businesses across the state.
- Empower experts in the industry - both workers and owners - to work with government and develop solutions tailored to the unique needs of the nail salon industry.
- Create fair pricing for nail services that reverse the race to the bottom, to support better working conditions for workers, improve customers’ experiences, and level the playing field for responsible salon owners.
