Definition issues of production safety accidents

1. Basis: Article 3 of the Regulations on the Reporting, Investigation, and Handling of Production Safety Accidents. Based on the casualties or direct economic losses caused by production safety accidents (hereinafter referred to as accidents), accidents are generally classified into the following categories: (4) A minor accident refers to an accident that results in 3 or fewer deaths, 10 or fewer serious injuries, or direct economic losses of less than 10 million yuan. **At the institutional level, minor injury accidents are not managed ； It should not be considered an safety accident ； If it is a serious injury, it is considered an accident ； But all damages at the corporate level must be treated as safety accidents ； In terms of economic losses, any accident that results in losses can be classified as a safety accident ； But generally, enterprises, at **this level, only pay attention to injuries to employees or environmental pollution incidents ； 2. The assessment of injuries is primarily based on the criteria you mentioned. 3. The disability grade must be determined by a professional institution ； 4. Generally, the procedure for work-related injury claims is followed: [Procedure for assessing work-related injury disabilities] 1) When an employee suffers a work-related injury and, after treatment, remains disabled and whose working capacity is affected, an assessment of their working capacity should be conducted. 　　2) Labor capacity assessment refers to the grading of the degree of labor function impairment and the degree of self-care disability. Labor function impairment is divided into 10 disability grades, with grade 1 being the most severe and grade 10 the least severe. Impairments in self-care are divided into 3 levels: complete inability to take care of oneself, significant inability to take care of oneself, and partial inability to take care of oneself. 　　3) The application for labor capacity assessment shall be submitted by the employer, the employee injured at work, or their immediate relatives to the municipal labor capacity assessment committee at the district level, along with the decision regarding the recognition of the work-related injury and relevant information on the employee’s medical treatment for the injury. 　　4) The municipal labor capacity assessment committee at the district level shall issue a decision on labor capacity assessment within 60 days from the date of receiving the application for such assessment; if necessary, this deadline may be extended by 30 days. The conclusion of the labor capacity assessment shall be delivered promptly to the units and individuals that requested the assessment. 　　5) If the entity or individual who applied for the assessment is dissatisfied with the assessment conclusion issued by the municipal labor capacity assessment committee, they may submit an application for a re-assessment to the provincial, autonomous region, or municipal labor capacity assessment committee within 15 days from the date of receiving such conclusion. 　　6) One year after the date on which the labor capacity assessment conclusion is issued, if the injured worker or his/her immediate relatives, the employer, or the handling agency believe that there has been a change in the degree of disability, they may apply for a re-assessment of labor capacity.

For example: if an employee falls from a height and breaks their spine, is it considered a production safety accident? It takes some time to go through the appraisal process and obtain the results, and by then it will be too late to report to the safety supervision department. How are general safety accidents handled?

It must be a work safety accident; the recognition of it as a work-related injury and the reporting to the safety supervision authorities can be carried out simultaneously；

It depends on how it’s handled; in most cases involving personal injuries, companies handle such matters privately, and as long as adequate compensation is provided, no reports are filed. In fact, the level of supervision in this area is not sufficient

The work-related injury determination is carried out when he has recovered, usually several months later. 1. What kind of serious accidents generally require immediate reporting (within 1 hour as per regulations)? How to judge the reporting situation? Is it just a personal opinion? 2. Was there a report to the safety supervision department, and did they determine that the injuries were minor and not classify it as an industrial accident?

I just want to know how it is actually done and whether it follows the standards. It may vary from place to place

There are standards outlined in books, but not many people follow them properly – as can be seen from that example of 35 people
