Penalties and consequences

As a supplier, it pays you to make sure you supply safe products in the first place. Breaking the law by selling unsafe products can be very costly to you and your business. These costs can include:

• losing business
• losing reputation
• recalling and recovering goods sold
• enforcement actions and penalties
• liability lawsuits
• product redesign
• retooling.

Making and selling safe goods in the first place is always a good business investment.
