Small business safety assistance

Question
How can a small business get help to create a safe working environment? 
Answer
The Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) provides several sources of assistance:

- The field staff and headquarters compliance staff answer questions about CPSC jurisdiction, laws, and reporting requirements

- A small business ombudsman provides compliance answers as well as technical assistance in resolving problems

- CPSC publications explain laws and regulations, and contain safety information on consumer products or hazards

Learn more about CPSC services and product recalls by visiting the CPSC web site at www.cpsc.gov or by calling the CPSC hotline 800-638-2772. Bilingual staff is available.
