Consumer Product Safety Standards and Conformity Assessment: Issues in a Global Marketplace


Add your own review!

Overview

The expansion of international markets in consumer goods has raised concerns about safety standards and their effect on trade. This publication presents the results of an extensive survey of manufacturers, distributors and government regulators in the area, and elucidates the major issues and attitudes towards the problems. Duplicate testing requirements often provide no greater guarantee of safety but merely increase costs and delay the introduction of products to the market place. Internationally accepted performance-based standards, mutually recognized international procedures for ensuring standards conformity, and more transparency in safety requirements to ensure that standards are not used for anti-competitive purposes are encouraged.
