The adult industry is always evolving, and staying up to date on health and safety standards is a must for everyone involved. That's why Performer Availability Screening Services (PASS) is stepping up to help. PASS, the industry clearinghouse for work availability data, has announced a special event: office hours on Tuesday, July 7, focused on the latest Mgen updates. This isn't just for a select few. It's open to all adult industry workers, from performers to producers. ### What Are These Office Hours All About? Think of it as a direct line to the people who know the rules best. The session will feature Ian O'Brien, Executive Director of PASS, along with board members and the entire PASS staff. They'll be there to answer your questions, clarify new guidelines, and discuss how Mgen updates affect your daily work. This is a rare chance to get clarity straight from the source. No middlemen, no guesswork. Just real talk about real changes. ### Why Mgen Updates Matter Mgen, or Mycoplasma genitalium, is a bacterial infection that can have serious health implications if left untreated. The adult industry has been proactive in updating testing protocols to address this. PASS's office hours aim to break down what these updates mean for: - Testing schedules and requirements - How to interpret results - Best practices for staying safe on set - Communication between performers and production teams These aren't just technical details. They affect how you work, who you work with, and your peace of mind. ### Who Should Attend? Everyone. Seriously. Whether you're a seasoned performer, a new face in the industry, or a producer trying to keep your sets compliant, this is for you. PASS is making it clear: no one is left out. > "We want every worker in the adult industry to feel informed and empowered," says Ian O'Brien. "These updates are important, and we're here to help you navigate them." ### How to Prepare Before the session, take a few minutes to jot down your questions. Maybe you're unsure about testing windows. Or you want to know how Mgen fits into existing protocols. Whatever it is, bring it. The PASS team is ready to dive deep. You can also check the PASS website for any pre-reading materials. But honestly, the real value is in the live Q&A. ### Don't Miss This Opportunity Mark your calendar for Tuesday, July 7. This is a chance to get answers that could make your work life safer and smoother. The adult industry is a community, and events like this remind us that we're all in this together.
