Global safety policies and partnerships promote safety and engage stakeholders across geographies to help more people avoid harm.
The ULSE Technical Committee for National Standardization of Fire Safety and Lifesaving Devices in Mexico

Each partnership is structured to promote communication, foster ongoing collaboration, and facilitate the participation of stakeholders while developing and harmonizing safety standards.
Work With Us
Thorough, comprehensive standards are made possible by diverse voices and deep collaboration. Take part in the process by reviewing options for participation to inform the next generation of standards.
Technical Committees
Each TC is a diverse group of experts representing a broad range of perspectives and interests, including consumers, manufacturers, regulators, supply chain professionals, and more.
As a TC member, you will review proposals for new or revised standards and work collaboratively to achieve consensus through balloting in our transparent process.
Stakeholders
Stakeholders can submit, review, and comment on proposals for new standards or revisions to existing standards. While these individuals cannot vote, the TC considers their input during the standards voting process. Since standards affect everyone, all are welcome to participate as stakeholders.
