As prescribed by the State Council, SAWS administers the StateAdministration of Coal Mine Safety and directs the overall controlof coalmine safety

SAWS is responsible for direct control of work safety in non-coalmining, hazardous chemicals, fireworks, offshore and onshore oiland gas, machinery, light industries, building materials, metallurgy,etc.

For the other industries and sectors (construction, road traffic,waterway, railway, civil aviation, fishery vessels, agriculture, etc.),SAWS supervises the industry-specific ministries to carry out theirduties on work safety.

4. Major Action in Recent Years

Adopted laws and regulations including the WorkSafety Law (2002), aimed at building a sound legalframework

The State Council issued the Decision on Further

Enhancing Work Safety (2004) The State Council executive meeting decided to

upgrade SAWS to ministry status and separatelyestablish SACMS in Feb. 2005

Work safety was for the first time incorporated intothe five-year national development programme

(2006-2010), four work safety indicators were listedinto the leadership performance assessment system


21/35

Major Actions in Work Safety Specific rectification campaigns in key industries

- Coal mine, fireworks, hazards chemicals, road andwaterway traffic, fire prevention in publicgathering places

Classification standardization on work safety Work safety control indicators system

Work safety supervision and inspection system

Work safety responsibility and accountability system

Safety science and technology

Safety culture

Work Safety Month

Major Actions in Coal Mine Safety

Aug. 2005 set the goal to cut back on major gasexplosions within two years and to solve the problem ofsmall coal mines within three years

2005 to 2007: the number of gas explosions drop34.3% and the fatalities drop 50.1%

All high gassy coal mines and 87.5% of low gassy coalmines install gas monitoring and control system

Central government invested 9 billion yuan in threeyears, local governments and enterprises invested 64.1billion yuan, to fund safety-related technologicalrenovations in key State-owned coal mines

So far closed 11,618 small coal mines Decide to close another 5,000 small coal mines by the

year 2010


23/35

Challenging Factors Productivity level different from one place toanother

Diversification of ownerships makes work safetymore difficult to be controlled

Rapid growth of coal industry and modern

transportation, accelerated development ofregional economies

Migration workers from rural places to cities addpressure to work safety

Transfer of high-risk Industries becomes aproblem

from developed to developing countries

from urban to rural areas

from state-owned to township enterprises

from eastern to western regions


24/35

Major Obstacles to Safety Improvement

Incomplete laws, regulations and technicalstandards

More inspectors needed Inadequate investment, outdated equipment

Safety science and technology yet to improve

Poor enforcement of safety responsibilitysystem

Ineffective implementation of laws andregulations

Insufficient safety awareness of workers


25/35

Principles

Safety first, prevention prioritized,

comprehensive treatment

Different roles: enterprises, government,

and service providers

Address both the symptoms and deep-

rooted causes of problem Comprehensive control


26/35

A Three-Step Approach

2007 Improved safety conditions in accident-plagued mining, chemical and construction sectors,major accident occurrence under control;

2010 Good legal framework, regulatory system and

emergency rescue system, industrial accidents andfatalities reduced , rising trend of road traffic deathtoll reversed, safety situation in mining, chemical andconstruction sectors under effective control;

2020 Fundamental improvement of the nationalwork safety conditions. The number of fatalities in

accidents per 100 million yuan worth of GDP and thenumber of fatalities in accidents per 100 thousandworkers in industrial, mining and commercial sectorsreach the equal of the mid-ranking developedcountries
