Peel Public Health inspection program

During inspections by Peel Public Health, a green pass sign means the business establishment is following the applicable requirements under the Health Protection and Promotion Act for food safety and operational standards for personal service settings, according to the Region of Peel.

A yellow (conditional pass) sign means the business establishment is not following all the requirements and added, “items that pose a risk of illness must be corrected at the time of inspection.”

A red (closed) sign means a public health inspector found a “health risk or danger” and closed the establishment or service until the risks are removed, the region said.

The Peel Public Health inspection program is designed to provide the public with information about inspections of food establishments in Peel.
