The basic principles for the supervision and management of work safety are as follows. (1) Adhere to the principle of \"abiding by the law, enforcing the law strictly, and holding violators accountable.\" Abiding by the law involves both its implementation and compliance. Firstly, it is reflected in the requirement that occupational safety and health inspection agencies and their personnel must strictly abide by discipline and act in accordance with the law in their work. For judicial authorities, when handling cases, they must adhere to the principle of taking facts as the basis for safety management and the law as the standard. For employers and workers, it is essential to strictly abide by laws, regulations, and systems related to occupational safety and health. Strict law enforcement means that law enforcement agencies and officers must act strictly in accordance with legal provisions in order to uphold the dignity and authority of the law. For judicial authorities, when handling cases, rendering judgments, and imposing sentences, they must act in strict accordance with the provisions of the law. Another meaning of strict law enforcement is the absence of unlawful interference in decision-making activities by other administrative agencies, organizations, or individuals. Any violation of the law must be held accountable; that is, all illegal and criminal acts must be thoroughly investigated and punished in accordance with the law. No one shall be above the law or beyond its reach, and no one may enjoy privileges other than those provided by the law. Adhering to the principle that violations of the law must be prosecuted and that all are equal before the law is an important principle of the socialist legal system. Only by strictly implementing this principle can the unity and seriousness of the socialist legal system be effectively ensured. (2) Adhere to the principle of basing actions on facts and taking the law as a standard. The facts of violation constitute the objective basis for taking action or imposing penalties. When monitoring and enforcing actions regarding cases that are reported or inspected, it is necessary to conduct thorough investigations, gather reliable evidence, and clarify the facts. Objectively investigate and verify the facts of violations, so that there is sufficient evidence for determining those violations in terms of safety management, evidence that can stand the test of time. Laws and regulations are the only standard for sentencing in cases. When enforcing the law, occupational safety and health inspection agencies must do so in accordance with the specific provisions of relevant laws and regulations. In the process of law enforcement, occupational safety and health supervision agencies must respect objective facts and carry out their duties in accordance with legal provisions. (3) Adhere to the principle of combining behavioral supervision with technical supervision. **In occupational safety and health supervision, not only is behavioral oversight carried out (monitoring the management practices of employers and their supervisors to ensure that various rules, regulations, and management activities comply with safety requirements), but technical supervision is also implemented. This involves using technical methods to thoroughly examine the safety and hygiene conditions of production processes, equipment, raw materials, and the working environment, as well as the relevant protective measures. Only by combining behavioral supervision with technical supervision and emphasizing the role of behavioral supervision can we, amid continuous advances in science and technology, achieve effective occupational safety and health supervision through legal means.** (4) Adhere to the principle of combining supervision with service. Occupational safety and health supervision agencies should not only carry out thorough inspections and supervision, promptly recommend measures to strengthen prevention, and expose and correct deficiencies and deviations in occupational safety and health, but also wholeheartedly assist employers with publicity, education, and technical training, provide relevant information and scientific and technological insights, and guide and help employers improve their occupational safety and health practices in order to achieve a balance between safety and production. (5) Adhere to the principle of combining education with punishment. The meaning of the principle of combining punishment with education is that punishment is not only a tool for punishing violations of the law, but it also serves an educational purpose. Its educational function lies primarily in, on the one hand, enabling people to learn about, understand, and master the law, and on the other hand, through imposing penalties for violations of the law, ensuring safety management in order to educate others not to commit similar violations and to prevent the same offenses from being repeated by those who have already committed them.
