The Consumer Product Safety Commission

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is a government agency that works to protect people from dangerous or unsafe products, such as toys, appliances, and electronics. It sets safety standards, investigates incidents, and can recall products if they pose health or safety risks. The CPSC aims to prevent injuries and save lives by ensuring that consumer products meet safety guidelines and providing consumers with information about potential hazards. It operates independently but collaborates with manufacturers, retailers, and other organizations to promote safer products for everyone.
