RESPONSIBILITIES OF A CONSUMER

Consumer Responsibilities

Consumer responsibilities refer to the ethical and moral obligations that individuals have when engaging in the marketplace as buyers of goods and services. These responsibilities complement consumer rights and emphasize the role of consumers in making informed choices, promoting fair practices, and contributing to sustainable consumption.

  1. Making Informed Choices: Consumers should gather information about products and services to make educated decisions.
  2. Exercising Critical Thinking: Consumers should evaluate advertisements and claims to avoid being misled.
  3. Protecting Personal Information: Consumers should secure their data during transactions and online interactions.
  4. Using Products Safely: Consumers should follow usage guidelines and take precautions to prevent accidents.
