Faulty Product

People are often uncertain as to whether or not they can make a product liability injury claim. Manufacturers, suppliers and retailers have a duty of care to ensure that the product they are selling is safe and meets all the regulatory requirements needed.

Product liability claims are claims resulting from accidents caused directly by goods or products which have been supplied or work which has been carried out. The examples of types of accidents are as follows:

1. Skin rashes and burns due to bad reaction to cosmetic products
2. Damages resulting from faulty or defective electrical goods
3. Injuries caused by defective equipment, tools, knives etc
4. Road accidents caused by faulty parts or equipment
5. Road accidents caused by poor workmanship during repair or servicing
6. Medicine that has caused harm due to its use
7. Injuries to children as result playing with defective or unsafe toys
8. Food poisoning

Manufacturers or supplier of goods may find themselves responsible to pay compensation to the consumers injured by their products. Government statutes such as The Sale of Goods Act and the Consumer Protection Act have provisions specifically to make it easy for injured consumers to claim against those, who are responsible for their injury.
