Inspection Reports
View Food and Lodging Inspection Reports
Important points to remember when viewing inspection reports:
- Inspections are unannounced;
- Inspections reflect a snapshot in time;
- Inspections focus on the food safety processes, procedures and sanitation that are essential to control or eliminate food safety risks;
- Violations must be corrected at the time of inspection;
- Food safety education and intervention are used to increase food safety controls;
- Food safety is a cooperative effort involving food businesses, food safety regulators and consumers.
Looking at a series of inspection reports over time gives a more accurate picture of a food business' commitment to food safety and sanitation. In the end, food safety is an ongoing, cooperative effort involving management at a food business, food workers, food safety regulators and consumers.
