Product safety is important to ensure the well-being and protection of consumers.
Product safety problems mainly exist with toys, child and baby products, and electrical household items.
Chemical poisoning, choking, electric shock and fire are the most noted risks for consumers.
Everyone in the chain of supply, from the manufacturer, importer, distributor to the retailer has some responsibility to ensure that the critical safety rules are met. However, there is a particular responsibility placed on the manufacturer.
