Efficient Implementation of Standards for Security, Safety and UNECE

摘要

Standards simplify international cooperation, create clear interfaces along the supply chain and protect consumers. Most relevant from a legal perspective is that they describe the state of the art. However, it is becoming increasingly difficult to comply with all applicable standards due to their fast growth. They tend to overlap and exhibit regional characteristics. Standards must be carefully implemented in their complexity in order to be legally effective and at the same time not create overheads.
