Welcome to the July edition of Product Risk Insights. The recent months have been busy for anyone interested in product risks, with proposed reforms to product liability laws and the thresholds for class actions. We'll look at both proposals in this edition.
We'll also look at when (and how) you can make green representations about your products, why a strong compliance program is crucial, and whether there's much future for plaintiffs arguing "fear of the future" claims.
Finally, in honour of the season, we pull on some stretchy sportswear, do some gentle stretches, and look at when you can associate yourself with the Olympics or other major events.
