Recalled equipment: what California requires

The requirement

Fixtures, furniture, and equipment that have been banned or recalled by the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission shall not be used or on the facility’s premises.

What kind of duty this is

A standing prohibition. Your state says you may not have recalled items on the premises. It does not require you to run a check on a schedule, and there is no state form.

Your state prescribes no recall form. Anything we generate for you is a convenience record for your own files — it is not a state form, and we will not pretend otherwise.

Worth knowing

This is a prohibition, not a monitoring duty. California requires no recurring documented check and prescribes no certification form. A provider still has to know what has been recalled in order to comply — but the state does not make them prove it on a schedule.
