They focus on identifying and addressing hazards in everyday items, such as children's toys, cribs, household appliances, and electronics, by developing industry standards and enforcing safety regulations. Through their comprehensive "Neighborhood Safety Network," the CPSC provides families and caregivers with timely information on product recalls and safety alerts to prevent accidents before they occur. By empowering consumers with research-based safety tips and a platform to report dangerous products, the agency plays a critical role in ensuring a safer marketplace for all.
