Download or read book Product Safety Excellence written by Timothy A. Pine and published by Quality Press. This book was released on 2012-06-18 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Product safety problems really waste company resources, alienate consumers, frustrate employees, and leave company stakeholders disgusted. It is easy to understand why most consumer product companies are committed to product safety and why they often seem willing to devote even more resources to increase their organization’s safety commitment. Their logic seems to be that this kind of action will result in higher levels of safety performance. Achieving excellence in product safety is not about seeking more commitment. It is all about understanding what to do and how to do it using the fine organization one already has. Product Safety Excellence defines the seven vital elements that are essential to achieving state-of-the-art product safety performance with the benefits of product liability prevention, product quality improvement, and higher levels of consumer trust and loyalty. This book is appropriate for anyone interested in understanding the concepts underlying product safety excellence. It should especially be read by management and technical personnel with a responsibility and/or desire for eliminating product safety problems and improving profitability and consumer loyalty.
Download or read book Product Liability written by Duncan Fairgrieve and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-20 with total page 1112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Product Liability is a recognised authority in the field and covers the product liability laws through which manufacturers, retailers, and others may be held liable to compensate persons who are injured, or who incur financial loss, when the products which they manufacture or sell are defective or not fit for their purpose. Product defects may originate in the production process, be one of design, or be grounded in a failure to issue an adequate warning or directions for safe use and practitioners advising business clients or claimants will find this book provides all the necessary information for practitioners to manage a product liability claim. This new edition has been fully updated to take account of 10 years of development in case law and regulation, and the increasing impact of cross-border and transnational sale of goods. The Court of Justice of the European Union handed down major rulings concerning the Product Liability Directive which affect the application of the Directive and national arrangements and Fairgrieve and Goldberg examines this in detail. For any legal practitioner operating in areas which require knowledge of European product liability law, an understanding of the impact of recent developments is essential and this work is an essential resource for practitioners working on product liability, sale of goods, personal injury and negligence. The work provides comprehensive coverage of the law of negligence as it applies to product liability, of the strict liability provisions of the Consumer Protection Act 1987, and of the EU's Product Liability Directive on which the Act is based. Although the majority of cases involve pharmaceuticals and medical devices, in recent English cases the allegedly defective products have been as diverse as a child's buggy, an All Terrain Vehicle, and even a coffee cup. Many cases are brought as group actions, and the book examines the rights of those who are injured by defective products. As well as considering the perspective of the law as it has developed in the UK, this edition contains detailed discussion of case law from other jurisdictions including the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, France and Germany. The coverage in the work is complemented by a full analysis of issues which arise in transnational litigation involving problems of jurisdiction and the choice of laws.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed to be an easily read, high-level guide to inform the executive management and staff support functions of an organization how critical it is to develop a Product Liability Prevention System and the steps needed to establish an effective Product Safety Plan. It was created to inspire the reader to be aware that the product safety criteria must be a subset of the organization’s structure and built into the operation’s strategic plan. Internationally known quality consultant and lecturer Bud Gookins walks the reader though a series of product systems and design concepts that will enable the manufacturer and service organizations to establish a product safety and product liability prevention process that can be integrated into an existing structure. It discusses the key elements of a sound operational process, quality assurance, and reliability system approach to product safety. It will address product liability prevention initiatives, the salient points involved in justifying a product recall, and how to navigate though the recall of a defective product that reaches the field.
