Cali Law May Force Porn Stars to Wear Goggles and Rubber Gloves (@VladTV)

The latest version of a California worker safety bill may require adult film actors to wear items like protective goggles while filming sex scenes, Salon reports.

An updated draft of Bill AB 640 would not only prohibit state-wide performers from ejaculating onto the genitals, mouth or eyes, but require employers to provide “barrier protection” eyewear as well.

Bill AB 640 is currently awaiting review in the senate. If approved it would require “personal protective equipment” to “prevent contact of an employee’s eye; skin, mucous membranes, or genitals with the blood or OPIM-STI of another.”

The California Division of Occupational Safety and Health defines OPIM-STI as any bodily fluids, including fecal matter and those from wounds or sores.

Adult film actors Jessica Drake and James Deen were among the loudest protesters when they released a spoof public service announcement, showing them filming a sex scene in protective clothing and under the monitor of a health inspector.
