The U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission is charged with protecting the public from
unreasonable risks of serious injury or death from more
than 15,000 types of consumer products under the
agency's jurisdiction. Deaths, injuries and property
damage from consumer product incidents cost the nation
more than $700 billion annually. The CPSC is committed
to protecting consumers and families from products that
pose a fire, electrical, chemical, or mechanical hazard
or can injure children. The CPSC's work to ensure the
safety of consumer products - such as toys, cribs, power
tools, cigarette lighters, and household chemicals -
contributed significantly to the 30 percent decline in
the rate of deaths and injuries associated with consumer
products over the past 30 years. |
