White injury should be included in the safety assessment index

Not long ago, the author inspected the safety production with the inspection team to an enterprise's production workshop. He saw that the workshop's safety operation procedures were relatively complete and the employees' operations were standardized. However, the workshop equipment produced more dust during operation, but the workshop did not have a corresponding installation. The dust-falling equipment did not have dust-proof technical measures and employees did not wear dust-proof masks.

Faced with the inquiries of inspection team personnel, the person in charge of the workshop stated that as long as the equipment is overhauled and maintained, and the employees strictly follow the operating procedures, no safety accidents will occur. When the inspection team puts dust on the operator's health, the responsible person stated that there is no occupational disease index in the safety assessment of the company's assessment workshop. Even if an occupational disease occurs, it has little to do with himself. Hearing this, I can not help but dazed.

The workshop manager's words and deeds are quite representative among current business managers. For a long time, compared to blood redness, the society has paid more attention to and attached importance to safety incidents known as “red wounds.” Strengthening safety in production has become a mantra for managers at all levels of the company, without bleeding-related occupational hazards. "White wounds" are easily overlooked due to their occult and delayed nature, and it is difficult to obtain high attention. As a result, some enterprises are heavy "red wounds" and light "white wounds," and occupational hazard prevention and control awareness is not strong. However, "white wounds" damage more and more groups, the potential harm is heavier, and the long-term destructiveness is greater.

Many of the assessment indicators for production safety responsibility formulated by companies include assessment indicators such as “red injuries” for death, serious injuries, and minor injuries, but are far more important than the visible “red injury” for occupational diseases “white injury”. However, it did not include assessment indicators. In the implementation of occupational hazard prevention and control responsibility, the responsibility for the prevention of occupational hazards has not been included in the responsibility letter in the safety production responsibility signed between the enterprise legal person and the subordinate production unit and the person in charge of the relevant department. In the security inspections conducted by many business organizations, occupational hazard prevention and control work has not been checked accordingly.

It should be noted that in the past 11 years since the Occupational Disease Prevention Law was promulgated, enterprises have placed more emphasis on labor safety than before. However, with the changes in socio-economic development concepts, business models, labor employment systems and other factors, occupational health remains worrying and occupational hazards remain. It is a topic of social concern. According to statistics, there are more than 16 million poisonous and harmful enterprises in China, and the number of occupational hazards exceeds 200 million. The direct economic loss caused by occupational disease damage amounts to 100 billion yuan each year. The loss of labor caused by occupational diseases is difficult to estimate with money.

Emphasis on the prevention and control of occupational hazards highlights the fear of life. Occupational hazard prevention and treatment should be a complete chain, inserted in the end, which is the enterprise production site. The key to many occupational diseases that have emerged now is the prevention of problems, and the main responsibility for prevention is business. The "white injury" is included in the company's safety assessment index system, and the responsibility is broken down into the heads of the company's various units and departments, which can make the implementation and supervision on the spot more powerful.

First, we must resolve the ideological consciousness of business managers and correct the ideological tendency of “emphasizing the development of light health, focusing on the efficiency of light input, focusing on the treatment of light prevention, and stressing 'red injury', 'light' white injury,” and establishing “white injury” is the accident. "The concept. The qualitative and quantitative indicators were combined to quantify the “white injury” as occupational disease prevention planning and responsibility, occupational health training rate, occupational health inspection rate, occupational disease risk factor detection rate, occupational disease risk contract notification rate, new occupational disease Control indicators such as the number of cases are included in the category of corporate safety assessment indicators. They are issued to the company's production units and related departments at the beginning of the year. Responsibility for the assessment of the indicators must be implemented in the party's party and government officials and department heads.

At the beginning of the year, the company’s legal entity, its affiliates, and department heads signed safety responsibility responsibilities, including occupational hazard prevention and control requirements and assessment indicators, and clearly defined measures for rewards and penalties. All units and departments must include the prevention of occupational hazards into the safety inspection. , with the safety production layout, with the inspection, with the assessment. The trade union organizations of enterprises should also take the initiative to strengthen the supervision over the prevention and treatment of occupational hazards in various departments and units and form a long-term mechanism for prevention and control of occupational diseases in multiple sectors.

In addition, "white wounds" should be included as a hard index into the performance of the government departments at the end of the year to evaluate the performance of enterprises and corporate managers, and as a variety of honors and advanced selection criteria for corporate and corporate management personnel. Public security, occupational health and other government departments must strengthen the supervision and inspection of enterprises, and impose penalties on enterprises that have not established effective systems for prevention and control of occupational hazards and measures, as well as concealed reports, false reports, no declaration of occupational hazard information, and evasion of government supervision. Strength.

"Red injury" should be prevented, and "white wounds" must be treated. Occupational hazard prevention is related to the physical health and life safety of workers, and is related to the overall situation of economic development and social stability. To curb invisible “white wounds” requires not only the attention of the society, the supervision of the government, but also the need to establish a people-oriented enterprise. The concept of long-term fear of the law, fear of the heart of life, to strengthen the prevention and treatment of occupational diseases to protect and protect the health of workers.
