Recently, higher authorities came for an inspection, checking the leadership presence system and the records. May I ask everyone, which document or regulation requires the system of leaders being on duty? We are a hazardous chemicals manufacturing enterprise – do we need to implement this system? Lead 24-hour duty?
It seems there are no specific legal provisions requiring managers to be on duty. But if you are a continuous manufacturing enterprise that deals with hazardous chemicals. If the leader doesn’t take charge, there must always be a leader to step in and handle things when problems arise.
Chemical manufacturing and storage enterprises must have supervisors on duty (no fewer than 2 per day) to ensure that there are always supervisors present 24/7. This is necessary to prevent unexpected accidents and to enable prompt and effective emergency response and rescue in the event of an accident
Refer to the provisions set out in Document No. [2010]139 issued by the General Office of the Work Safety Administration
It is clearly stipulated in ***’Notice on Further Strengthening Work Safety in Enterprises’, State Council Document [2010] No. 23. I have uploaded the file; you can take a look at it.
“Notice of the State Council on Further Strengthening Work Safety in Enterprises” (Guo Fa [2010] No. 23), II. Strengthening enterprise safety management: 5. Enhancing leadership responsibility for production process management. The main responsible persons of the enterprise and members of its leadership team should take turns to be on site in charge.
There are two documents that stipulate the requirement for leaders to be present at work: 1. “Notice on Further Strengthening Work Safety in Enterprises” (Guo Fa [2010] No. 23); 2. Guidelines issued by the State Administration of Work Safety on further improving the standardization of work safety in enterprises and ensuring strict fulfillment of enterprises’ responsibilities in this regard (An Jian Zong Ban [2010] No. 139). (IV) System requiring leaders and managers to be present at the work site. The main persons in charge of the enterprise, members of its leadership team, and those responsible for production and management must strictly comply with the regulations regarding on-site supervision. They should establish appropriate systems for leadership presence at the workplace, focus on on-site safety management, strengthen inspections and patrols of key areas and critical processes, identify and resolve problems promptly, and ensure proper handover of responsibilities.
