Safety issues focus on prevention

Suppose you have a pond with a water lily growing in it. This lily plant doubles in size every day. If allowed to grow unchecked, this lily would completely cover the pond within 30 days, suffocating other life forms in the water. For a long time, this lily will seem small, so you won't have to worry about pruning it until it covers half of your pond. How many days are there? Of course it is twenty-nine days. You still have one day to save your pond. This is a French children's riddle, which illustrates that the growth of many things is not as slow as we think. After accumulating for a certain period of time, it will suddenly approach a fixed limit. Here we can imagine that if you wait until the twenty-ninth day and find that the situation is very serious, and then want to remedy it, although there is still hope at this time, you can only work as hard as you can on this last day. There is no other choice. You will be very tired, and you may not be able to do a good job. We might as well apply the same principle to the production of chemical companies. In chemical companies, our slogan is: “Safety is paramount and prevention comes first.” People often don't realize the seriousness of a safety incident before it happens. They always take a chance and think that the probability of a safety incident is extremely low. What's more, there are so many employees in the company, so this kind of thing will never happen to them. What everyone does not expect is that once many safety accidents occur, they will cause serious personal injury or even take their own lives. As the saying goes: Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality. However, because the probability of "one" is far less than "ten thousand", many people put safety awareness in the back of their minds and do not pay attention to it. When an accident happens one day, people will use words such as "unexpected" and "unlucky" to describe the accidental nature of the accident. In fact, many things happen inevitably. There was once a worker who wore a safety helmet to work every day and never had an accident. One day, when he went out, he realized that he had forgotten to wear a safety helmet. So he thought, "Forget it, there has never been an accident. It will be fine without wearing a safety helmet for a day." However, on this day, he was injured by a stone that fell from above the construction site. In chemical companies, safety hazards definitely exist. If a screw falls off or a water pump leaks, we may not worry about it because these seem to be minor problems. However, even these minor problems that are not easily taken seriously can sometimes lead to major accidents. We must improve employees' safety awareness, do preventive work at all times, eliminate safety hazards, eliminate safety hazards at an early age, and truly achieve "safe production." Only enterprises with safety guarantees are modern enterprises with humanistic care, and are the outstanding enterprises needed for the sustained and healthy development of China's economy.
Generally speaking, in the accident chain, there are two means to prevent accidents or reduce the harm of accidents. One is prevention, which is to eliminate the danger before the accident occurs. From a broad perspective, intrinsic safety (Inherent safety), which has been very popular recently, also belongs to the category of prevention. ； The second is protection. After an accident occurs, in order to reduce the consequences of the accident, firewalls, explosion-proof walls and other facilities are used to weaken and limit the accident damage to a certain area to prevent subsequent accidents. Comparing these two methods, it can be found that the prevention method has certain advantages in terms of cost and safety performance.
Chemical enterprises must strengthen their responsibilities, focus on prevention, have a clear division of labor, perform their duties, and conduct inspections in place. If they do the above, it will generally be better and everyone can work better. There are fewer accidents. Everyone should firmly remember that their lives come first, they have to work and earn money, but life is the most important thing. It is recommended that when training employees, we should still emphasize the idea that life is more important than everything else.
Accident prevention focuses on establishing a complete risk management mechanism and effectively implementing it to reduce risks before an accident occurs. To this end, we must first carry out hazard identification for all employees, identify the dangerous and harmful factors that exist in each position, identify the triggering conditions for hazardous and harmful factors to transform into dangerous states and the necessary conditions for transforming dangerous states into accidents. Then, based on the accident chain principle, preventive measures must be taken, and software and hardware construction must be done from the three aspects of safety management, safety technology, and safety education. Only by doing so can we truly prevent accidents and achieve safe production.
Everyone should pay attention to safety work
Indeed, hidden dangers definitely exist, but the key to prevention is the impact on employees’ awareness! develop a good * Habits are much better than endless education all day long!
