Recalled equipment: what New York requires

New York does not require a recall check

We read New York’s licensing rules in full. They contain no requirement for licensed providers to monitor or document product recalls. We are telling you this even though it means you have less reason to pay us, because a page that invents a rule to sell a subscription is worth nothing to you and would deserve nothing from you.

What the rules do say

We read the full text of Part 418-1. The word “recall” does not appear in it. The CPSC is referenced twice — once for crib safety standards and once for the playground safety handbook — and neither creates a recall-monitoring duty.

Recalled children’s gear is still dangerous, and a recalled crib in your care is still a liability whether or not a form asks about it. The free screening below works regardless.

18 NYCRR Part 418-1 (Child Day Care Centers), effective 13 October 2021
