Since the reform and opening up, with the development of society, all kinds of production and operation enterprises have sprung up. In the early stage of development, enterprises once pursued economic benefits, resulting in frequent safety production accidents, with the economic and social development and the improvement of workers' awareness of the protection of rights and interests, safety production work gradually showed its importance.
In 2002, in order to strengthen the supervision and management of production safety, the State established the State Administration of Work Safety Supervision and Administration (now merged into the Ministry of Emergency Management), and formulated the "Work Safety Law" as the representative of the production safety laws and regulations system, after more than 20 years of efforts, the safety management, safety investment, emergency support and technical level of the enterprise has been greatly improved, and the national safety production form has steadily improved.
Enterprises above designated size have a high level of safety production by equipping them with professional safety management personnel and establishing a safety standardized operation system, but a large number of enterprises in China belong to small and micro enterprises, and their safety production level is relatively weak, especially the small family-style workshops set up in towns and villages, with outdated production equipment, low personnel safety awareness and technical ability, and backward emergency support. The safety management of small and micro enterprises mainly depends on the personal awareness of the operator, and the operator attaches importance to safety.
A certain amount of money will be invested in equipping fire extinguishing equipment, and safety education will be carried out for employees, and timely maintenance of equipment and facilities; Operators who do not pay attention to safety work will ignore it.
The newly revised "Work Safety Law" in 2021 clarifies the responsibilities of township safety production supervision and inspection, which is a clear signal for small and micro enterprises to strengthen safety supervision and management. At the township level, the first has a better understanding of the small workshops in the jurisdiction, and the supervision and inspection is more convenient, so as to avoid the formation of blind spots by the county and municipal emergency management departments due to incomplete statistics. It is believed that through the further progress of supervision methods and laws and regulations, and the improvement of safety awareness of the whole society, small and micro enterprises with weak safety production will become more and more standardized, and China's safety production level will have a big leap.
