What safety equipment is required to be mounted in public view in a licensed salon?

In a licensed salon, the safety equipment required to be mounted in public view is a fire extinguisher. This requirement is in place to ensure that in the event of a fire, both employees and clients can quickly locate the fire extinguisher and take appropriate action to mitigate danger. Visible placement also serves as a reminder for regular checks and maintenance, ensuring the equipment is functional when needed.

While other safety equipment, such as a first aid kit or a safety manual, may also be important for the overall safety of the salon environment, they do not have the same mandatory visibility requirement as a fire extinguisher. The presence of the fire extinguisher in a readily accessible and visible location is critical for promoting immediate safety measures and preparedness for emergencies, particularly given the potential fire hazards associated with cosmetology practices.
