GS1 Recall and Recall Health systems

GS1 Australia provides two real-time product recall and withdrawal notification systems, Recall and Recall Health. Each systems manages recalls and withdrawals for different types of products:

• Recall: food, beverage and retail products.
• Recall Health: therapeutic goods.

Suppliers create notifications in the relevant system within the parameters required by the appropriate industry regulator. Suppliers can also submit recall notifications directly to the relevant regulator for review and approval. The regulars are:

• Recall: Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) and the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC).
• Recall Health: The Therapeutic Goods Administration's (TGA) Uniform Recall Procedure for Therapeutic Goods (URPTG) guidelines.

Therapeutic product recalls are critical and must follow the Uniform Recall Procedure for Therapeutic Goods 2022 (URPTG) guidelines. Communicating recall information quickly and accurately can save lives.

Recall and Recall Health streamline and improve the timeliness of information sharing, which ultimately improve ensure patient safety.
