Jiangning High-Risk Enterprise Security Exploring Paid Outsourcing

On the morning of July 18, 2015, five technical experts from Jiangsu Sanlian Safety Evaluation Consulting Co., Ltd. entered Nanjing Quanfeng Automotive Precision Technology Co., Ltd. to perform “pick-and-stick” on-site dust control in the company's polishing workshop. The on-site inspection of high-risk enterprises by third-party experts is an innovative exploration pioneered by Jiangning District in the city this year.

The focus of this inspection is dust control. During the inspection, workers are polishing and grinding the various parts of the car that have just been machined. After the on-site inspection, the experts carefully examined the company's "safety management system, education and training system," "software", and the company responsible person throws one after another professional problems. “How long does the workshop dust clean up once?” “Is there any employee education and training system?” After exchanges with the person in charge of the company, the five experts gave an on-site inspection opinion and proposed that the shot blasting machine and the motor above the dust collector are not explosion-proof. , Partially polished workbench is not grounded, and there are six hidden dangers such as the unsealed connection between the shop's corner wire and steel pipe and casing.

Regarding the hidden dangers raised by the experts, Chen Zhiyu, responsible person for safety production at the “Quanfeng Motor” kept nodding and said that he would immediately arrange rectification. "For the first time, companies have received technical experts on-site inspections. They have made detailed investigations and pointed out that the hidden dangers are not noticed by the company at ordinary times." He said that companies are very welcome to this type of "picking" inspection.

Three questions asked for safe production inspection outsourcing

Question: The on-site inspection and investigation of hidden dangers is the responsibility of the normal work of the safety supervision department. It will outsource the inspection work to a third party. Is it shirking responsibility?

Safety supervision and law enforcement personnel introduced that the supervision and inspection of safe production of enterprises belongs to the statutory duties of the safety supervision department. However, due to the shortage of first-line law enforcement personnel and lack of professional knowledge, it is urgent to introduce external and more specialized technical forces to assist law enforcement agencies in detecting hidden dangers. Safety supervisors and other industry authorities supervise the rectification of deadlines for the investigation of professional companies. If the enterprise has not rectified or overhauled, it will be dealt with according to law until all safety hazards have been eliminated.

Second question: After the on-site inspection is performed by a third party, does the safety supervision and law enforcement personnel assume responsibility for on-site supervision and management of the company?

Giving high-risk enterprises technical inspections to an independent third party does not mean that law enforcement personnel no longer assume responsibility for on-site supervision and management. Professional company investigation of safety hazards is a supplement to safety on-site supervision and management. Law enforcement officers need to take more time and effort to strengthen supervision for general enterprises and undertake more special tasks, such as guiding enterprises to implement safety production standardization.

Question 3: An independent third party undertakes on-site inspections. How do you ensure the quality of inspections? If you do not detect hidden problems, what kind of responsibilities do third parties assume?

Jiangsu Sanlian deputy chief engineer Ruan Baohua introduced that the company’s existing experts have worked in their respective fields for many years. They have registered safety engineers, registered safety appraisers, or are experts in the Hidden Trouble Shooting Experts Bureau of the Provincial Work Safety Supervision Bureau. The general hidden dangers cannot escape the experts. s eyes. Of course, the company's investigation is only responsible for the situation at that time. If it is found that the hidden trouble companies have not been rectified and eventually become an accident, the company will not be liable. If the expert did not identify hidden dangers at that time, and the hidden trouble resulted in an accident, he will bear the corresponding responsibility according to the inspection contract.
