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 once on February 21, 2025. For example: Every operator of a personal service setting in which reusable equipment is used shall ensure that the personal service setting has at least one sink, that is not the hand wash sink, for reprocessing.

• Food source, labelling and allergensHigher risk

  Products used on clients must come from approved sources, stay in their original labelled containers and be thrown out when they are expired or contaminated. Unlabelled products make it impossible to know what a client is being exposed to.

  Recorded once on February 21, 2025. For example: Single use equipment is discarded immediately after use.

• 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 February 21, 2025. For example: Products used are stored and dispensed in a manner that prevents contamination.

• 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 2 times on February 21, 2025. For example: Disinfection records are kept.
