To help put recall trends in perspective, we launched the quarterly ExpertRECALL Index that tracks recall activity across a broad spectrum of products and industries.

The ExpertRECALL Index will be issued quarterly, starting with the second quarter of 2011. The ExpertRECALL Index will provide a top-line summary of significant recall data, including quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year information. The ExpertRECALL Index will break down recall trends across the medical device, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, consumer products and juvenile products sectors.

Stericycle ExpertRECALL compiles these quarterly reports from data issued by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), including agency recall announcements and regular enforcement reports.
