People's Daily Zhong Yin: Resolutely prevent and curb the occurrence of major accidents
On August 29th, the investigation report on the "11.21" special major fire accident of Kaixinda Trading Co., Ltd. in Anyang City, Henan Province and the "2.22" special major collapse accident of the open-pit coal mine of Alxa Xinjing Coal Industry Co., Ltd. in Inner Mongolia were released. The process, causes, casualties, direct economic losses, and the situation of relevant units and enterprises of the two accidents have been investigated separately. The problems and responsibilities of the local party committees, governments, relevant departments, and units have been identified separately.
Life is more important than Mount Tai, and safety production cannot be relaxed for a moment.
According to the investigation and determination of the accident investigation team of the State Council, the "11.21" particularly serious fire accident was a production safety responsibility accident caused by the serious violation of laws and regulations by the enterprise leader, the failure to implement the main responsibility, and the inadequate performance of local party committees, governments, and relevant departments and units; According to the investigation and determination of the accident investigation team of the State Council, the "2.22" particularly serious collapse accident was a production safety responsibility accident caused by an enterprise illegally contracting construction units without mining construction qualifications to carry out long-term risky and reckless work during the period of mine construction to open-pit technical transformation. Relevant departments' supervision and law enforcement were "loose and weak", and local party committees and governments were negligent in management, resulting in the long-term existence of major risk hazards. The lessons learned from the two accidents are very profound, and we must carefully learn from them, firmly establish the concept of "people first, life first", and resolutely prevent and curb the occurrence of major accidents.
Security is the foundation of development, and development and security are the two wings and driving wheels of one body. Only by adhering to the coordinated development and security, emphasizing both development and security, and achieving a positive interaction between high-quality development and high-level security, can we safeguard the new development pattern with a new security pattern. Each region and department should fully, accurately, and comprehensively implement the new development concept, better coordinate development and security, consider security factors more in development, effectively enhance risk awareness, adhere to bottom line thinking, actively and effectively prevent and resolve major security risks. We must not only focus on development without considering security, and truly shoulder the political responsibility of promoting local development and ensuring local security.
To ensure safety production, the key is to improve the system and implement responsibilities. Behind some accidents, there are often blind spots in regulation and inadequate implementation of responsibilities.We need to improve and perfect relevant laws and regulations, solve the problem of unclear and suspended responsibilities of relevant departments, effectively strengthen grassroots safety governance capabilities, and comprehensively weave and strengthen the safety production responsibility network.
