What these findings mean
Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for clients. In personal service settings like salons, spas and tattoo studios, higher-risk findings are the ones that could spread infection from one client to the next, through broken skin, blood or instruments that were not properly cleaned and sterilized.
Chemicals and toxic substancesHigher risk
Disinfectants must be the right type for the job, mixed to the correct strength, labelled and replaced on schedule. A disinfectant that is expired or diluted too much may not kill germs on tools, so these findings are treated seriously.
Recorded once on December 4, 2025. For example:
Chemical indicators are used appropriately to verify sterilization.
Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk
Clean and used instruments, towels and supplies must be kept apart, and products such as wax, creams and inks must be dispensed so they cannot be contaminated between clients (no double-dipping). Mixing clean and dirty items is a direct route for infection.
Recorded once on November 1, 2024. For example:
Floors, walls, ceilings, fixtures, surfaces and furniture are in good repair, easily cleanable, of a smooth and impermeable material and maintained in a sanitary manner.
