Build a comprehensive security defense line

Shandong Guoda Gold Co., Ltd. takes cultivating a safety culture, improving the overall quality of its employees, and standardizing safe behavior as the fundamental tasks of establishing a corporate safety culture. It continuously strengthens safety education, innovates management models, and improves the level of hardware and software facilities, building a solid line of defense in safety production management.

Strengthen safety education and improve safety quality.

Guoda Company starts with the safety education of cadres and employees, taking the safety education of all employees as a key task, implementing it in a hierarchical and focused manner, and improving the safety quality of employees.

In view of the large number of new employees, Guoda Company has strengthened the three-level safety education for new employees. Safety management personnel explain the process flow and dangerous hazard factors on site, organize the viewing of special films such as "Safety Production Knowledge", "Law Protection Peace", and "Dangerous Chemical Management Knowledge", and analyze safety accident cases. At the same time, the company has raised the safety entry threshold. New and returning employees who fail the safety qualification interview and examination, and those who fail the second make-up exam, will be denied entry. Since 2007, more than 20 employees have been dismissed due to failing safety assessments.

In daily safety education, Guoda Company focuses on strengthening training and examinations on job safety operating procedures, process procedures, equipment procedures, and emergency plans. This year, factory-level training has reached more than 50 class hours, and secondary and tertiary safety training and team safety activities are carried out almost every day. In terms of training and cultivating the knowledge and operational skills of personnel in special trades and special operations, Guoda Company cooperates with the training center to adopt on-site training methods, strengthen employee learning assessments, and ensure that employees in special trades can master professional safety knowledge and technology and work with certificates.

Innovate management models and improve management levels.

While focusing on safety education, Guoda Company continuously innovates safety management methods and actively carries out various and colorful safety publicity and education activities. It uses family affection, friendship, enthusiasm, and love to educate and influence employees, and uses heart-to-heart communication and emotional integration to build a bridge for sincere communication with employees, building a solid line of defense for safe production.

In response to the characteristic that chemical plant safety accidents mostly occur during maintenance, Guoda Company has introduced humane management methods such as "preliminary hazard analysis", "risk assessment", and "safe work permits" during the implementation of standardized operation standards. It organizes employees to analyze and identify potential hazards in the operation process in advance, adopts targeted preventive measures, implements protection and supervision, achieves "three insurances" of "personnel, site, and protective facilities", and achieves proactive prevention, eliminating and avoiding the occurrence of safety accidents.

In addition, Guoda Company also organizes various safety activities such as "safety star rating assessment", "safety golden ideas collection", "four mirrors to promote safety", "five visits and four feelings education", "work-integrated entertainment with prize-winning Q&A", and "safety arts into teams", giving full play to the imagination and creativity of employees and mobilizing their enthusiasm and initiative in participating in safety work.

Strengthen hidden danger management and eliminate accident precursors.

In order to prevent and reduce various accidents to the greatest extent, Guoda Company regularly organizes company-wide "anti-three violations, checking hidden dangers" special rectification activities targeting potential dangers and hazards in the operation process.

In the safety rectification activities, Guoda Company first established a special safety risk assessment organization to effectively evaluate the dangers identified by various units, establish a list of major risks and major hazard sources, formulate corresponding job safety operating procedures, prevention and control measures, and emergency plans, and organize employees to conduct risk identification and prevention learning and drills.

Second, it conducts in-depth searches for "short boards" in personnel awareness, work processes, and safety management work throughout the company, focusing on workshops, jobs, sites, and personnel. Through mutual supervision and management among operators, the crisis awareness and sense of responsibility of employees at their posts are improved.

Third, it implements a safety hazard inspection system, formulates detailed safety inspection forms, and conducts hazard inspections and unit and post self-inspections by profession, season, and key parts. In the first half of the year, through inspections by the company's safety committee and professional teams, on-site inspections by safety management personnel, and self-inspections of hidden dangers by various unit safety teams, more than 300 safety hazards were found and rectified.

Fourth, it highlights the management of key areas. For key positions, key areas, and important links prone to poisoning, leakage, and pollution accidents, it implements a system of assigning specific personnel to be responsible, clarifies the responsibilities and obligations of managers at all levels, and conducts assessments of their post responsibility system. The content and time of managers conducting safety activities at their posts are recorded, ensuring that key areas are all under control.

Increase investment and ensure production safety.

Guoda Company invested more than 200,000 yuan to introduce and install a mobile acid-adding crane at the acid-filling post, invested more than 3 million yuan to install closed-circuit monitoring facilities at the sodium cyanide storage tank, arsenic receiving post, replacement post, and thickener, which are in contact with highly toxic substances, and invested more than 1 million yuan to purchase eye washers, sulfur dioxide detectors, arsine gas testers, carbon dioxide alarms, and oxygen respirators. It standardized the safety colors, safety signs, and on-site protective railings of process equipment.

In addition, the company has also set up safety interlocking devices and automatic alarm instruments at key positions, made job hazard notification signs, installed safety lamp boxes on all factory lights, and set up information cards for toxic and harmful chemicals, job safety warning signs, and safety humor columns in key areas, providing strong hardware support for safe production.
