When at least one infraction poses a significant health risk, a conditional permit is issued, and a closure is ordered when at least one infraction poses an immediate health risk. Both outcomes result in an additional 48-hour inspection. Failure to comply with the DineSafe program in Toronto can result in fines, court summonses, and other enforcement measures.
