EU General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR, Regulation 2023/988) GPSR-Art.20: Accident notification (Article 20)

What does GPSR-Art.20 require?

Article 20 requires manufacturers to notify, through the Safety Business Gateway, any accident caused by a product they placed or made available on the market, without undue delay from the moment they know or ought to know about the accident. The notification covers the type and identifier of the product, the circumstances of the accident if known, the remedial actions taken or planned. Where the accident has resulted in serious risk or fatality, the notification must be made within 2 working days.
