Third Product Safety Conference Announced

The Electrical Safety Council is in the process of getting ready for the third Product Safety Conference in London on the 16^th May this year.

The Conference will be held at Church House in London and is set to be an interesting day. With speakers such as Malcolm Harbour, CBE, MEP and Chairman of the Internal Market and Consumer Protection Committee, opening the proceedings to emphasise how important product safety actually is, the day should be a huge success and will allow both consumers and professionals to discuss important factors and ideas.

Some of the key issues to be tackled on the day include discussing design issues and improvements that could be made with procedures like recall processes and the traceability of products. Also, there will be discussions on the best ways to teach consumers about safe buying, the safe use of appliances in the home, and how to ensure they take electrical safety seriously.

The list of speakers attending and discussing issues has not been finalised yet, however there are a few who have confirmed already and these include; Dyson, British Retail Consortium, Recalls UK, Bosch and AMDEA. There are sure to be some other well known brands speaking at the conference not included on this list and should make for an informative day.
