Abstract
This chapter presents input for more responsible management of product innovation activities to various stakeholders of product safety, especially regulators/policy makers, manufacturers, retailers, and consumers. The immediate benefits are a better understanding of how to develop products that are safe—with obvious benefits for manufacturing firms and their customers. It also provides empirical guidance for governments to regulate industries properly and effectively.
