The Safety of Second Hand Goods
This free webinar will help businesses understand the safety requirements to ensure that products are safe for consumers.
With the drive towards reducing waste, and the cost of living crisis there has never been a greater demand for second hand products.
The sale of second hand goods can be very confusing. There is a natural inclination by some organisations not to sell some products like electrical goods when in fact most products can be sold safely second hand.
This course will provide specific examples of best practice and will look at many different product types, providing practical advice on the sale of these items.
