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.

  • 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 January 29, 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 January 29, 2025. For example: Products used are stored and dispensed in a manner that prevents contamination.

  • 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 2 times on January 29, 2025. For example: Equipment is maintained in good sanitary condition and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

  • Other findingsLower risk

    Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.

    Recorded 2 times on January 29, 2025. For example: The setting is equipped with receptacles for waste appropriate for the sanitary operation and maintenance of the setting.
