LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
Existing law requires the Department of Industrial Relations, among other things, to convene an advisory committee to evaluate whether changes are needed to align specified regulations with the applicable and most recently adopted standards of the National Fire Protection Association. Existing law requires the committee to be composed of parties in both management and labor, represent a cross section of the fire protection industry and community, and be competent and knowledgeable regarding personal protective clothing and equipment for firefighters and firefighting practices generally.
This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to the provisions described above that require the department to convene an advisory committee.
