Brief Description of Requirement

### Background

This project is being recruited as part of the BEIS Office for Product Safety and Standards Strategic Research Programme (SRP), which was launched in March 2018. This programme provides high quality strategic science-based research to strengthen the evidence base for Safety and Standards policy development, delivery and enforcement, giving business the confidence to innovate and protecting consumers from unsafe products. The wide range of evidence-based research supported by the SRP helps to address critical questions relating to current product safety, and/or issues that might arise due to future market developments.

### Aims and Objectives of the Project

The aim of the project is to develop evidence to support the risk assessments of products with common electrical non-compliances and provide guidance to inform the application of this evidence.

The project will have five main objectives:

â&#128;¢ To identify common electrical non-compliances

â&#128;¢ To develop tests/methodologies to quantify the hazard and risk resulting from these non-compliances

â&#128;¢ To record the results in a way that they can easily be input into RAPEX risk assessments

â&#128;¢ To identify additional factors to consider when undertaking risk assessments and support these with evidence.
