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.

• Hand hygiene and infection controlHigher risk

  Infection control is the core of a personal service inspection. Inspectors check that operators clean their hands and change gloves between clients, that a stocked hand sink is available, and that anything that breaks the skin is handled so blood-borne infections such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV cannot pass from one client to the next.

  Recorded 2 times on April 14, 2026. For example: Equipment used for invasive services is provided, handled, and maintained in a sanitary condition and follows infection control best practices.

• Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk

  The premises needs a working hand sink, a separate sink for cleaning instruments where required, cleanable surfaces, and good lighting and ventilation. Upkeep problems are usually lower risk on their own, but they make thorough cleaning harder.

  Recorded once on April 14, 2026. For example: Reusable instruments are stored, handled, and maintained in good repair and sanitary condition (O.Reg. 136/18; Sec. 10(1)(a)) & Sec.10 (1)(b i-ii)).

• Equipment and utensilsLower risk

  Instruments, chairs, tables and footbaths must be made of materials that can be cleaned, kept in good repair and stored so they stay clean. Single-use items such as nail files, buffers, razors and needles must be thrown away after each client.

  Recorded once on April 14, 2026. For example: Ensure all reusable equipment is cleaned and disinfected or sterilized as often as necessary to prevent disease transmission (O.Reg. 136/18; Sec.10(4)).

• Permits, records and postingLower risk

  Operating permits, client records, sterilization logs and required signage. Client records matter because they let health officials contact people if an infection is linked to the business.

  Recorded once on April 14, 2026. For example: Records relating to invasive procedures must be kept by every operator of a personal service setting (O.Reg. 136/18; 6(1-2)).
