Council’s Environmental Health Officers regularly inspect hairdressers, personal care and body art businesses to ensure safe and hygienic practices, including supporting compliance through providing advice and information.
Environmental Health Officers also respond to complaints concerning health and beauty premises. If you have any concerns regarding public complaints about poor hygiene and infection control practices in any health and beauty premises please contact Council's Public Health Unit.
It will help if you can provide specific details of the problems you have observed when making your complaint. In the case of a suspected skin condition or infectious disease, you should contact your doctor as well as reporting the problem to Public Health Services. Council can only respond to complaints within our municipality. If you have a complaint about a business located outside Hume City, please contact the relevant Council where the premises are located.
