    California To Require Condoms In Porn

    http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...ilms&printer=1

    After almost a year of urging the adult-film industry to require actors to wear condoms during sex scenes, state and county officials say the recent HIV (news - web sites) infection of two porn stars has given them the leverage they need to force change.

    State and Los Angeles County health officials said Monday they believed existing regulations gave them the authority to require adult-film actors to use condoms, and the state Division of Occupational Health and Safety plans to begin inspections this week, marking the first time Cal/OSHA has investigated the adult-film industry.

    not surprising that they would use the incident to force one of the rules they have wanted to introduce for a while. I wouldnt be suprised if other states started introducing measures like this

        They want to outlaw all contact with semen, including oral!
        --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        But now that the agency is getting involved, it has two main regulations that would apply to the porn industry: illness-prevention program requirements and the blood-borne pathogen standard, Gard said.

        The illness-prevention program requires employers to have written policies on reducing workplace hazards. The blood-borne pathogen standard requires use of universal precautions by people who come in contact with semen, vaginal secretions, blood and other bodily fluids that may transmit diseases.

        "If you think of nursing or the healthcare industry, they have to use universal precautions," Gard said. "That means you always use a rubber glove when they draw blood."

        In addition to a condoms-only policy, enforcement of existing state regulations would require porn producers to bear the costs of any testing, vaccinations and medical care associated with their employees in the workplace, Kerndt said.It would also mean an end to practices in some pornographic movies that involve contact with semen.

                We've been doing mandatory condums for scenes for years now...buy 1000 at a time wholesale.

                Unless it's a couple and they sign a special waver that they're a couple and they're assuming responsibility, the rubber goes on.

                          It's not just condoms.

                          Cal/OSHA wants the producers to pay for all testing, vaccinations and medical care.

                          They also want to establish performers as being employees, rather that independent contractors.

                            Looks like Cali just lost its porn industry and people are going to start shooting in other locations.

                              Going to be big bucks in renting out rooms in Mexico to shoot porn.

                              Or selling back drops to look like your shooting in Mexico.
                              Good luck.

                                      I am not sure why this is so unbelievable to most people on here.

                                      This is Big Government -'Mommy'- in action.

                                      Welcome to the State of California where we will regulate, tax, and dicatate your entire existence.

                                      They will most surely add another 10,000 more civil servants to the state payroll as 'Condom Enforcement'.

                                              Producers should pay for testing. I also think this is good because the government is seeing it as a real enterprise not a illegal activity.
