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.

  • 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 July 26, 2023. For example: Tattoo, micropigmentation and microblading equipment provided, handled and maintained in sanitary condition.

  • 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 July 6, 2022. For example: Ensure the floors, walls, ceilings, fixtures and furniture of the setting are maintained in good repair, easily cleanable, of a smooth and impermeable material and maintained in a sanitary condition (O.Reg. 136/18; Sec. 8(1)(2).
