	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1852, Campos. Business: services to minors: background checks.
   Existing law generally provides requirements for the licensing of
business establishments. Existing law authorizes specified entities
to receive state summary criminal history information from the
Department of Justice. Existing law prohibits an employer, as a
condition of employment, from asking an applicant to disclose
information regarding an arrest that did not result in a conviction,
as specified.
   This bill would require a business that provides services to
minors, as defined, to provide written notice to the parent or
guardian of a youth participating in the service offered by the
business regarding the business's policies relating to criminal
background checks for employees who provide services to minors, as
specified.
