Consumer Product Safety - Guidelines for Suppliers

This International Standard provides practical guidance to suppliers on assessing and managing the

safety of consumer products, including effective documentation of risk assessment and risk management

to meet applicable requirements.

This International Standard describes how to:

— identify, assess, reduce or eliminate hazards;

— manage risks by reducing them to tolerable levels;

— provide consumers with hazard warnings or instructions essential to the safe use or disposal of

consumer products.

This International Standard is intended to apply to consumer products, but might also be applicable to

decisions concerning safety in other product sectors.
