§ 5-245 — Premises

§ 5-245 Premises.

(a) An agency may share premises, provided that the sharing is with an unrelated entity or with an entity permitted by New York General Business Law § 187(8). The agency shall not directly or indirectly suggest to an applicant that he or she purchase the services or products of the entity sharing the premises. For purposes of this section, "unrelated" shall mean that no exchange of the proceeds or sharing of profits in any form takes place between the agency and the entity, and that they do not have any officers, directors, partners, shareholders, principals, managers, executives, administrators, salespersons, or job-placement counselors in common. (b) Every room of an employment agency shall be properly and adequately lighted and ventilated. (c) The premises of every licensed agency shall be kept in a suitable and sanitary condition. (d) Every employment agency shall be provided with running water and suitable and adequate washing facilities. Where both males and females are employed or dealt with in such agency, separate facilities shall be provided for each sex.
