Regulations on Strengthening the Safety Management of External Construction Units: These regulations are aimed at further enhancing the safety management of external construction units (including construction teams, anti-corrosion teams, installation teams, packaging teams, loading and unloading personnel, as well as various types of casual workers). To prevent various accidents caused by inadequate safety management on the part of external construction firms, and to ensure that collective property is not damaged and that the safety of employees and construction workers is not compromised, the following safety management regulations are established. All external construction firms, individuals, and authorities in charge of construction are requested to comply strictly with these regulations. (1) Basic Requirements 1. Strictly enforce **the laws and regulations related to work safety, as well as all the safety rules and procedures established by the company. 2. The construction unit must establish various safety rules and regulations, safety operating procedures, as well as a safety assurance system of its own; it must appoint full-time safety officers and file these arrangements with the safety management department, while also ensuring that safety measures and construction activities are properly organized within the unit. 3. Before external units begin construction on the site, the construction management department must organize safety training to ensure that all workers are aware of the company’s safety policies and regulations as well as relevant safety precautions. This helps them fully understand the necessity and importance of safe construction, thereby enhancing their safety awareness and self-protection skills. 4. External construction workers are not allowed to go to any areas other than those designated for construction work. They must not touch equipment, electrical appliances, or other facilities that are not under their responsibility. Smoking is strictly prohibited in fire-sensitive areas to prevent any accidents. 5. Before a construction contractor begins work on site, the competent department must first sign a safety contract with them; contractors that work for this company on an ongoing basis must have such a contract signed annually. For ease of management, upon signing the contract, the company will collect a security deposit of 500 to 5,000 yuan; copies of the safety contract and the receipt for the security deposit must be submitted to the Safety Management Department for record-keeping. (II) Safety management at the construction site: 6. During the construction process, whenever safety permits are required for activities such as starting work on the site, using fire, working at heights, lifting operations, entering containers, or cutting off power supplies, the relevant personnel from the competent department must go to the safety management office to obtain these permits; work can only commence once all necessary procedures have been completed. 7. When performing welding work in no-fire zones, it is necessary to strictly adhere to the safety regulations for such work; a dedicated person must supervise the welding process. The construction site must be cleaned up after each day’s work. Anyone who violates these rules will be fined 200 yuan at once. 8. When working at heights, strictly follow the safety regulations for such work, and wear all necessary personal protective equipment, including safety helmets and safety belts. When carrying out cross-tasking in hazardous areas, a dedicated supervisor must be assigned. 9. Ensure proper safety and hygiene management at the construction site; unnecessary equipment should be removed promptly, and waste and piled-up items on the site must be cleared up in a timely manner. 10. It is strictly prohibited to build temporary structures or pile up various materials within fire separation distances and fire access routes. 11. It is strictly prohibited to pile up flammable materials under high-voltage lines. When entering areas prone to fire and explosion, it is forbidden to wear work clothes made of synthetic fibers that can generate static electricity sparks, as well as shoes with iron nails. 12. In flammable and explosive areas, it is prohibited to use tools that can generate sparks through impact for operations. 13. Fencing and hazard signs must be installed in dangerous areas at the construction site; signal lights should be placed at night, and if necessary, a dedicated person should be assigned to oversee these areas. 14. The passages at the construction site must remain unobstructed, and the road width and turning radius must meet the safety requirements for vehicle traffic. 15. Fire-fighting equipment must be installed at the construction site in accordance with regulations. 16. The demolition work must be carried out under the unified command and supervision of the project supervisor. The removed items should be cleared from the site as soon as possible. 17. The on-site safety management and supervision of external construction units are the responsibility of both the company’s construction department and the unit where the construction is carried out; the latter serves as the primary responsible party, while the company’s construction department acts as the secondary responsible party. The Safety Department is tasked with supervising, inspecting, and providing guidance regarding the implementation of safety management measures by these responsible parties as well as by external construction units. (III) Safety management of construction machinery and electrical equipment: 18. The safety devices and related components of all kinds of machinery and electrical equipment used by construction companies must be complete and in good condition. Electrical equipment with incomplete components (such as the absence of a leakage protector, switch covers, or improper installation) must not be used under any circumstances. In the event of unauthorized use, a fine of 100 yuan will be imposed upon each incident, or the electrical equipment will be confiscated. 19. Electrical installations during construction must be approved by the responsible persons from the Safety and Installation Department and the Production Department, and qualified professionals must be assigned to carry out the wiring. It is strictly prohibited to connect power cables without authorization; if this rule is not followed, the construction unit will be fined 100 yuan for each instance of violation. 20. All electrical equipment at the construction site must comply with the requirements of relevant electrical safety regulations, and must have proper neutral connection or grounding. 21. Construction units must strictly comply with the safety regulations for lifting equipment when carrying out lifting operations. In cases where the construction conditions are special, a construction plan must be prepared, which must be reviewed by the safety department and approved by company management before it can be implemented. (IV) Accident Management 22. During the installation and construction process, any economic losses resulting from liability accidents such as fires shall be compensated by the external construction units. 23. During the construction period, any accidents caused by external contractors that result in injuries or deaths to the company’s employees, disability, or economic losses due to equipment damage shall be compensated by those external contractors. 24. In the event of serious liability accidents arising from the construction unit’s failure to comply with management requirements, violation of rules and regulations, or forcing workers to carry out dangerous tasks in violation of regulations, such cases will be reported to the judicial authorities for handling in accordance with relevant provisions. (V) Supplementary Provisions 25: Before employing external personnel for construction work, relevant departments of the company must verify their construction qualifications; those without proper qualification certificates or whose qualifications do not meet the requirements shall not be employed under any circumstances.
