This sounds like an issue for DOH. They permit tanning salons - the state

Good morning!

 

I conducted a few tanning salon inspections on Wednesday afternoon and one of
the businesses asked me if I was aware of key cards used for tanning salons.
I told her I had not heard of anything and asked her for more information.
She indicated that there are at least three tanning salons in Collier County
that are working off key cards. It is like a credit card, you put it into a
slot, go into the tanning bed and you can for as long as you want.  There are
supposedly no timers on the beds and no one watching over these facilities.
That is all the information she had so far.  This came up when a friend of
hers told her about an employee that went to one of these facilities and came
back with a bad burn.  The employee would not give up any information of how
she obtained this key card and where the tanning facilities are, but the
facility owner I spoke to said she would let me know if she found out any
more information.  

 

Have any of the other counties heard of this type of operation?
