Quality Scan: One Flaw Can Trigger Worldwide Reporting Obligations

May 2012 - Manufacturing Engineering

New consumer product regulations are not limited to the US Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (“CPSIA”) and its Publicly Available Consumer Product Safety Information Database (“Database”). Countries around the world are passing and enhancing regulations aimed at consumer product safety, including, among others, Canada, Australia, and the European Union. The end result to manufacturers is that an incident or recall involving one product in one country may now trigger reporting in another country, and another, as the domino effect continues. Consequently, manufacturers must understand the different regulations and assess their current policies and procedures to ensure a timely response to each regulation.
