I’m working on a project right now, and there’s a question that’s quite confusing: in the process of obtaining approval for construction, is it necessary to prepare a separate section on labor safety and hygiene or one on occupational health? The focus of each of these areas is different, and the guidelines for preparing them also vary. I hope those who have worked on this special topic can offer some guidance.
I’m working on a special section on occupational safety and health
I also have a question. Sometimes when I’m checking the materials, I find that both are present; it seems like the safety supervision department requires both ; Sometimes it seems it doesn’t matter if only one of them is there; I’m really confused
It seems we just need a special section on occupational health~~~
When applying for construction approval, our company only needs a special section on labor hygiene. Work related to occupational health was initiated once trial production began (mainly carried out by disease control agencies), including employee health checks, physical inspections of the working environment, obtaining certifications for the cafeteria, health checks for cafeteria staff, and maintenance of a medical room. But no dedicated article was formed. I don’t know what the situation is like in other places.

The term “special section on safety and hygiene” is an old term; nowadays these two aspects should be discussed separately, under the titles of “Special Section on Safety Facility Design” and “Special Section on Design of Facilities for Protecting Against Occupational Diseases”. The former is to be reviewed by the **Safety Supervision Bureau, and its preparation must comply with the detailed requirements outlined in Document No. 225. The latter is reviewed by the health department, and its preparation must adhere to the requirements set out in Health Department Order No. 49; in cases where occupational hazards are severe, a special section on the design of facilities for protecting against occupational diseases is necessary. The two are different. Furthermore, the Safety Supervision Bureau now also oversees the supervision and management of toxic materials in workplaces. According to Document No. 31 [2005] issued by the health authorities, the division of responsibilities between the Safety Supervision Bureau and the health department is clear; the document requires these two agencies to hold consultations once a year. It's fun. I specialize in working on such articles, including those related to environmental protection; I also do this on a part-time basis. Those who have any needs can get in touch with me. Thank you!
Thank you for the reply from the fifth floor; it was very comprehensive. Thank you first :) I have another question: you mentioned that the two documents should be written separately. Does that mean that if a project does not fall under the category of those with severe occupational hazards, there is no need to prepare a separate document on occupational health? Is it also unnecessary to prepare the original document on labor safety and health?
What is needed now is a special section on occupational health; your term “special section on labor safety and health” is an outdated expression. At the initial stage of a new project, what needs to be done is prepare a section on occupational health and a section on safety design. For reference.
The requirements in this section stem from Order No. 3 of the Ministry of Labor, the \"Regulations on Labor Safety and Health Supervision for Construction Projects (Works)\\", which stipulates that a assessment of labor safety and health must be conducted; this can be referred to as a chapter. The term \"special section\" is used for the preliminary design phase. It is recommended that the original poster use \"Labor Safety and Health\" instead of \"Occupational Health\", as the former includes the latter; subheadings can be used within the chapter to cover safety and occupational hazards. I usually write feasibility studies; discussions are welcome.
Authoritative answer ^_^: “Occupational health” – in foreign countries, it is sometimes referred to as “industrial hygiene” or “occupational hygiene”; currently, the term “occupational health” is more commonly used. Since its founding, New China has referred to this science as \"occupational health and hygiene\" or \"workplace health.\" The standard \"Terminology for Occupational Safety and Health\" (GB/T15236-1994) explicitly states that occupational health and hygiene are synonyms. In December 2001, when the former **Economic and Trade Commission** and **Work Safety Bureau** revised the \"Trial Standards for Occupational Safety and Health Management Systems\", they changed the term \"occupational hygiene\" to \"occupational health\", and officially issued the \"Guidelines for Occupational Safety and Health Management Systems\" as well as the \"Audit Criteria for Occupational Safety and Health Management Systems\". At present, in our field, **three terms are used – labor hygiene, occupational hygiene, and occupational health – all of which refer to the same concept. **The State Administration of Work Safety uniformly uses the term occupational safety and health, abbreviated as occupational health.
