Unit meaning: A non-negative count of recall actions. Product models, batches, units, notices, countries and remedies are child fields and not separate actions unless the source defines them that way.

Evidence and status sources
Sustopedia checked each record-specific claim directly against primary publisher material. Labels distinguish current measurement authority from future compatibility and corroborative, legal, edition, or method status context. Corroborative evidence can support a stated limitation but cannot establish the core measurement by itself.

Source-edition basis: Regulation (EU) 2023/988 consolidated 29 May 2026 and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/1435.
- Name the jurisdiction, legal or voluntary basis and action identity rule.
- Keep models, batches, notices, countries and remedies as child fields.
- State the reporting-period inclusion rule and recall-versus-withdrawal state.
Record-specific limitations
- Recall laws, thresholds and systems vary.
- The count does not measure product units, consumer exposure, injuries, noncompliance findings, remedy completion, recall effectiveness or safety performance.
Interpret this metric with the stated reporting boundary, period convention, value shape, and unit. Results prepared with different boundaries or conventions may not be directly comparable.
Measurement evidence supports the core record-specific claims described above. Corroborative evidence can support limitations, while compatibility and status sources provide their separately labelled context. None of these cards by itself determines an organisation's legal applicability, filing readiness, assurance status, or compliance conclusion.
