All personal services operators who provide services at temporary events (e.g. fairs, tradeshows, etc) must comply with the applicable sections of the Ontario Personal Service Settings Regulation 136/18 and require health unit approval prior to operation.
Even organizers must complete an event organizer application form at least 30 days before the event. The form asks for details such as on-site set-up a complete list of PSS vendors and other details such as washroom facilities and hand wash stations.
Each vendor providing services at the event must submit a vendor application form at least 14 days prior to the event. It is highly recommended vendors contact the health unit early to determine whether it is possible to offer the services you would like to provide given the space the venue can offer.
Please Note: Applications received past the noted deadlines may not be reviewed and events may not be allowed to run.
Vendors will not be allowed to operate if they show up to the event and have not submitted an application.
