Safety must be prioritized in the production of hazardous chemicals, as a single mistake can lead to irreversible accidents. Therefore, ensuring safe production of such chemicals requires the efforts of everyone involved. Do you know anything about the principle of “four no-harms” in hazardous chemical production? http://p7.itc.cn/images01/20210115/cb4bfb6eb0d34dd4b6324cb1588468f8.png 1. Do not harm yourself: 1. Maintain a proper work attitude and a good physical and mental state; it is your own responsibility to protect yourself. 2. Understand the risk factors and control methods associated with the equipment or activities you are operating, abide by safety rules, use necessary protective equipment, and avoid working in violation of regulations. 3. Any activity or device can be dangerous; proceed only after confirming that there is no threat of harm, and think carefully before acting. 4. Eliminate attitudes of luck reliance, arrogance, complacency, and assumption; do not take minor issues lightly. 5. Actively participate in safety education and training to improve the ability to identify and handle hazards. 6. Accept others’ corrections regarding one’s unsafe behaviors with an open mind. II. Do not harm others: 1. Your actions can affect the safety of others at any time; respect others’ lives and do not create safety hazards. 2. For activities, equipment, and environments you are not familiar with, listen more, observe more, and ask more questions; proceed only after necessary communication and consultation. 3. When operating the equipment, especially during startup, maintenance, cleaning, and upkeep, ensure that others are in an area free from impact. 4. Inform those affected promptly of any known dangers, take steps to eliminate them or label them accordingly. 5. Thoroughly understand the safety regulations/signs/instructions received before carrying them out. 6. Managers’ tolerance and acquiescence toward harmful behaviors pose the greatest threat to others; it is their responsibility to set a safe example. http://p8.itc.cn/images01/20210115/c2981b0f715f47c4aba8b965b6c195ab.png III. Avoiding harm from others: 1. Raise awareness of self-protection, stay vigilant, and identify and report dangers promptly. 2. Share your safety knowledge and experience with colleagues to help them improve their accident prevention skills. 3. Do not ignore identified/potential hazards and stay away from them, unless adequate protection and safety clearance are available. 4. Correct the unsafe behaviors of others that may harm oneself; it is more important to avoid harming lives than to preserve face. 5. Handle unexpected incidents calmly and apply the safety skills learned correctly. 6. Refuse to follow others’ illegal instructions, even if they come from your supervisor; it is your right to remain unharmed. IV. Protecting others from harm: 1. Anyone who discovers any potential hazards in any area must proactively inform or alert others. 2. Remind others to comply with various rules and regulations as well as safety operating procedures. 3. Provide safety suggestions, exchange ideas with one another, and pass on useful information to others. 4. Regard safety as a collective honor, contribute safety knowledge to the team, and share experiences with others. 5. Pay attention to any abnormal changes in others’ physical and mental conditions. 6. In the event of an accident, while protecting yourself, take the initiative to help those around you get out of trouble. Everyone should keep safe production in mind; while protecting themselves from harm, they should also help those around them stay safe. If everyone adheres to safety standards, accidents will be reduced as well. This article is reproduced from the Security Management Network.
