1. Before a license is issued, the
applicant shall deposit with the Labor Commissioner a bond, approved by the
Labor Commissioner, in the sum of $1,000 with two or more sureties or an
authorized surety company as surety. A notice of 30 days must be given to the
Labor Commissioner before cancellation of the bond.
2. The bond must be conditioned so that
the suspension, revocation, surrender or expiration of the license to operate
the employment agency does not affect the coverage of the bond as to a claim
arising out of acts that occurred before the date of the suspension,
revocation, surrender or expiration of the license.
3. In lieu of a bond an applicant may
deposit with the Labor Commissioner:
(a) An amount of money or bonds of the United
States or of the State of Nevada of an actual market value not less than the
amount fixed by the Labor Commissioner; or
(b) A savings certificate of a bank, credit
union, savings and loan association or savings bank situated in Nevada, which
indicates an account containing an amount equal to the amount of the bond which
would otherwise be required by this section and that this amount is unavailable
for withdrawal except upon order of the Labor Commissioner. Interest earned on
this amount accrues to the account of the applicant.
4. The Labor Commissioner may at any time
require the licensee to file a new or supplementary bond, or a deposit in lieu
thereof, in a form and amount of not more than $5,000 to conform to the
provisions of this section if the Labor Commissioner deems the initial deposit
or surety of the initial bond to be unsatisfactory or the amount of the deposit
or bond to have become insufficient to satisfy all claims, accrued or
contingent, against the licensee.
5. Any money received in lieu of a bond
must be deposited with the State Treasurer for credit to the Labor
Commissioners Account for Bonds, which is hereby created in the State Agency
Fund for Bonds. The deposit must not be released for a period of 90 days
following the date of suspension, revocation, surrender or expiration of the
license.
