Standards Australia is launching a new suite of Consumer Reference Guides to improve public access to the latest expert consumer advice. These guides are reproductions of standards that are made freely available to consumers, with the essential safety information taken from behind the pay wall.

The first guide, aimed at preventing common dangers caused by button batteries, was released on the 26th of August, during an online consumer safety event co-hosted Australian consumer advocates CHOICE.

This marks the beginning of an expanded catalogue of no cost online consumer safety guides, targeting priority areas where Australians face potential harm as a result of buying or using everyday products.

For more information, download the guide or contact intsect@standards.org.au.
