U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Protects Public From Dangerous Consumer Products

The United States Consumer Product Safety Commission is an independent agency of the U.S. government formed in 1972. Its mission is to protect the public from unreasonable risks of serious injury or death from thousands of types of consumer products that fall under the agency’s jurisdiction.

Products not under jurisdiction of the CPSC include those specifically named by law as under the jurisdiction of other federal agencies; for example, automobiles are regulated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, guns are regulated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and drugs are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration.

The mission of protecting consumers against unreasonable risk of injury is accomplished through the development of voluntary and mandatory standards, banning dangerous consumer products, issuing recalls of products already on the market, and researching potential hazards associated with consumer products.

When an injury occurs as a result of a dangerous product, it may be possible to pursue a claim for compensation that would include medical expenses, wage loss, pain and suffering and the permanent nature of the injury. If you or a family member have been injured in Kansas or Missouri due to a dangerous product, the lawyers at the Kansas City Accident Injury Attorneys may be able to help.
