The 15th national week on labor safety and hygiene and fire control 2013 with the theme of “Enhancing labor safety culture and measures of labor accident and occupational disease and fire control at workplace”, so what are purposes and requirements of this year’s theme?
The 15th national week on labor safety and hygiene and fire control 2013 is to raise employers and employees awareness and responsibility on labor safety and hygiene and fire control, to spur improvements of labor conditions at workplace, eyeing “reinforcement and development on labor safety culture”, contributing to ensure socio-economic development sustainably and is an important event in response to the world day for safety and health at work (April 28).
Organization of the national week on labor safety and hygiene and fire control must ensure significant and effective requirements to lure participation of employers and employees.
Over years, Binh Duong excelled work on labor safety, hygiene and fire control but the number of labor accidents remain high, so why?
Over the past years, the work on labor safety, hygiene and fire control has been launched strongly and overall. However, the number of labor accidents, occupational diseases and fires remain high, triggering losses on human and asset.
In reality, many businesses, especially small and medium enterprises have yet really to pay attention to labor safety to minimize labor accidents and occupational diseases for laborers. Meanwhile, work on inspection has yet to be implemented timely and management work on labor protection has yet to meet requirements of integration process.
The number of labor accidents relating to construction and mineral areas is at high level. So, what measures will the local administration set out to ensure labor safety and hygiene and fire control at businesses involving in these areas?
Over years, local leaders and agencies and businesses have paid much attention to labor safety and hygiene and fire control but labor accidents relating to construction and mineral areas remain high. The provincial steering board of the national week has issued documents to guide departments, agencies, localities and industrial parks to organize activities responding the national week, to steer businesses to hold trainings on labor safety and fire control for laborers as well as to instruct press units to disseminate the work and to ask functional agencies to inspect the work at businesses and among others.
Thanks a lot!
