Job Description
**Consultancy
- Risk Assessment for Non-Food and Industrial Consumer Products
- USAID TRADE**
**Project Overview and Role**:
Palladium was awarded the USAID/Trade Reform and Development in Egypt (TRADE) Activity contract, which has a 5-year timeframe and a ceiling of $36.3 million. The Project will be active throughout Egypt. The goal of the TRADE Activity is to increase Egypt’s international trade by increasing exports from SMEs, and in particular New and Expanding Export-Ready Enterprises (NEEREs). This will be achieved by addressing the constraints that impede the competitiveness of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs).
In order to achieve the Activity’s goal (increasing exports in selected sectors), Palladium must attain the following three Results:
Enhanced Export Capacity of SMEs, in particular New and Expanding Export-Ready Enterprises (NEEREs)in Selected Sectors
Strengthened Public and Private Trade-Support Institutions (e.g., Trade
Associations, Export Councils, etc.); and
Improved Trade and Investment Policy, Regulatory and Institutional Environment
***Primary Duties and Responsibilities**:
Background on the assignment
The USAID TRADE Project is focused on enhancing trade and investment policies, as well as the regulatory and institutional framework, as outlined in result 3. This encompasses five key areas of focus. The second area aims to expedite and streamline the movement of goods across borders, aligning with the provisions of the WTO Trade Facilitation Agreement and international best practice.
Ministerial Decree No. 283 amended the export/import regulation established by Ministerial Decree No. 770 of 2005. This addition, Bis Article No. 94, empowers GOEIC to institute a risk management system specifically tailored to the inspection and testing procedures of imported non-food and industrial commodities. This ensures that these operations are conducted selectively based on established disciplines and rules for evaluating risk factors. On the other hand, the second ministerial decree, No. 284, is dedicated to forming a high committee tasked with defining the disciplines and rules for implementing a risk management system within GOEIC for the inspection of imported non-food and industrial goods, considering the feedback from the related private sector’s stakeholders.
The overarching objective of TRADE’s support to GOEIC in this area is to expedite the release process and reduce associated costs for imported industrial goods and production supplies. To achieve this, the direct aim of this assignment is to support the formed GOEIC Technical Working Group in conducting a science-based risk assessment for the non-food & industrial consumer products (Electrical Appliances Sector), listed in the attached annexes No. (3) & (8) of the Executive Regulations of the Law No. 118 / 1975, issued by the Ministerial decree No. 770 / 2005, that evaluates, determines, develop a risk assessment matrix with risk levels for the products mentioned before, conduct training & coaching for the TWG’s members on Risk Assessment according to a Training Needs Assessment to be developed for that purpose considering the international best practices in this domain.
**Primary Duties and Responsibilities**
The consultant is required to perform the following tasks:
- Develop a term of reference for the Technical Working Group for electrical appliances, i.e., objectives and functions of the working group, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for conducting a consumer product risk assessment, setting a mechanism to classify the expected Product Risk, what Criteria to use, what roles/competencies are needed within the group, etc. GOEIC should be able to use the same terms of reference for other working groups with minor modifications.
- Based on the Technical Working Group Term of Reference (should be approved by GOEIC’s leadership), the consultant develops a training needs assessment report for the TWG’s members.
- Develop a science-based risk assessment procedure to evaluate, determine, classify, and quantify the risks of consumer products for electrical appliances listed in the Annexes 3 and 8 of the Ministerial Decree No. 770 of 2005, according to the well-recognized international guidelines and methods in this field.
- Prepare a risk assessment matrix with risk levels for each product of the electrical appliances in the said list, taking into consideration relevant EU Directives, and any other literature to benefit from their methods followed in this regard, i.e., how to assess risk, and how that risk can be mitigated.
- Conduct a training & coaching according to the training needs assessment that should include the following:
- Identification of the hazard that is intrinsic to each product.
- The determination of the probabilities and severities of the respective consumer injuries scenarios that could take place by the intrinsic product hazard.
- The combination of hazards with the probabilities i
