Class Code Summary:
Workers Comp class code 9586 is applied to insureds that provide personal grooming services for both men and women involving hair, scalp, face and hands. The services include hair shampooing, dyeing, styling, cutting, shaping, straightening, setting, drying, permanent waving and wig or hairpiece fitting; and facial massage, eyebrow tweezing, shaving, mustache and beard trimming, fingernail care and cosmetology. Indoor suntan provided by use of ultraviolet lamps or other means is also assigned to this classification when performed by beauty parlors or barbershops. Some shops will provide services at customers’ homes or at hospitals. Code 9586 also includes barber or beauty parlor schools and tanning parlors that operate as separate businesses.
Insureds engaged in the business of tattooing or body piercing are additionally contemplated by Code 9586. These operations are analogous to beauty salon work involving dyes and needles to affix permanent eyebrows and eyeliners to a customer’s face. Body piercing in this context refers to puncturing a body part such as an earlobe, to enable the customer to wear earrings or other ornamental decorations that are intended to be worn on a punctured body part.
Exclusions that should be separately classified would be retail stores that offer incidental piercing services, health spas or tanning salons operating independently of any hair styling salon, and those operations that are primarily exercise institutes yet offer related services on the side.
Refer to Code 9063for health spas or massage or steam room facilities operating as independent businesses. Refer to 9063 for tanning parlors operating in conjunction with health or exercise institutes.
