Manage product safety

About this business activity

When a company manufactures a product, it must ensure it is safe for consumers. This includes ensuring the product is safe to use and will not cause injury. If a company fails to meet this duty, it may be liable for damages.

Managing Product Safety Memo To Board Of Directors

This is a memorandum to the board of directors on managing the safety of its products. It outlines various suggested actions in order to comply with its consumer product safety obligations, thereby reducing the risk of facing product liability claims or being the subject of regulatory enforcement action. This memorandum includes reference to the Code of Practice on product recall and other corrective actions (PAS 7100:2022) issued by the British Standards Institution.

What to watch out for

  • The board of directors should ensure that the company has a product safety policy in place, and that all employees are aware of and trained in this policy.
  • The board of directors should appoint a product safety officer, who will be responsible for implementing and monitoring the product safety policy.
  • The board of directors should ensure that the company has procedures in place for identifying and assessing potential safety hazards associated with its products, and for taking appropriate corrective action if necessary.
  • The board of directors should ensure that the company has procedures in place for investigating incidents and complaints involving its products, and for taking appropriate corrective action if necessary.
