This book is designed to be an easily read, high-level guide to inform the executive management and staff support functions of an organization how critical it is to develop a Product Liability Prevention System and the steps needed to establish an effective Product Safety Plan. It was created to inspire the reader to be aware that the product safety criteria must be a subset of the organization’s structure and built into the operation’s strategic plan. Internationally known quality consultant and lecturer Bud Gookins walks the reader though a series of product systems and design concepts that will enable the manufacturer and service organizations to establish a product safety and product liability prevention process that can be integrated into an existing structure. It discusses the key elements of a sound operational process, quality assurance, and reliability system approach to product safety. It will address product liability prevention initiatives, the salient points involved in justifying a product recall, and how to navigate though the recall of a defective product that reaches the field.

An important step towards European legislation pertaining to product liability is the EU Directive of 25 July 1985 or the Council Directive on the Approximation of the Laws, Regulations, and Administrative Provisions of the Member States concerning Liability for Defective Products. While its significance cannot be denied in the pressure it places upon European governments: to enact product liability laws, it still leaves room for diverging domestic interpretations and postponement of genuinely effective legislation by the individual Member States.

Leading Expert in Product Liability Prevention Shows You How to Protect Your Company - and Improve Your Bottom Line! This is the first book to recognize the devastating effects product liability lawsuits can have on manufacturing corporations worldwide, and the necessity for organizations to understand all the elements of product liability prevention. Taking a proactive approach to describing how to put this type of quality program in place, the author demonstrates how an organization, even with its own non-legal staff, can join the fight against potential product liability actions, and win! Once initiated, the company will have not only gained a whole new level of awareness and education, but it will also have their own product liability teams and experts in place who will help them steer clear of any potential future problems. This new dimension of quality will lead to substantial improvements in many areas of any organization, significantly protect organizations from legal action, and help improve the bottom line. This book should be read by anyone who manufactures and sells products. Mr. Goodden demystifies and clearly explains the legal concepts that form the basis of product liability. By giving a manufacturer's employees easy to understand guidelines on how to start a product liability prevention program, establishing such a program should go a long way toward minimizing a manufacturer's potential liability. -- Kenneth Ross, Bowman and Brooke LLP.
