Strategic/Annual: Maintain success with the timeliness and usefulness of the Fast Track
Product Recall programs for industry through 2010.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission created the Fast Track Recall Program
in 1997 to provide companies with a means to quickly remove hazardous products from
the marketplace. A firm that reports and corrects a problem within 20 business days will
not be subject to a preliminary determination that the product presents a substantial risk
of injury. The purpose of the survey is to measure the strategic/annual goal as well as to
measure how well the program is meeting the firm’s needs.
Any company who recalls a product using the Fast Track Recall Program
Office of Compliance database
During the Fiscal Year of the survey, all companies within the U.S. that recall a product
using the Fast Track Recall Program are included in the survey.
