How to prevent and control safety risks in seed enterprises

Recently, there are many safety accidents in various places, and seed companies also have production links such as the storage of dangerous goods, high-risk operations and so on. On August 18, the reporter came to China seed Group, hoping that the experience of China seed can give you a reference.

Walking into the China seed Group and coming to the department in charge of safety work, the famous brand reads "HSE and Engineering Management Department". Zhu Cancan, director of this department, told reporters: "H, S, E are the abbreviations of the English words corresponding to health, safety and environmental protection. Within the group, these three items are managed as a system project, constantly improving the safety level through risk identification, safety training and system management."

Risk identification

Only when we know where the risk is, can we make targeted prevention and control.

Risk identification and analysis is the first step of HSE's work. "only when we know where the risk is, can we do a good job of prevention and control." Zhu Cancan said: the production and processing of seed enterprises include cleaning, selection, packaging, warehousing, and other links, and the main dangerous and harmful factors include mechanical injury, electrical hazard, fire, fall from height, poisoning, and so on. In the process of production and operation, such as the "HSE risk" is out of control, there are serious consequences of personal injury and property losses.

The exposed transmission parts (such as gears, belts, shafts, etc.) and reciprocating parts of rotating machinery may cause injuries such as pinch, scratch, cut, involve, twist, grind, cut, stab and so on.

All kinds of electrical equipment, wires, cables, distribution boxes, switches, sockets, etc. used in the processing process, and metal parts that are not charged under normal conditions, may cause electric shock and electrical injury to the human body; electrical overload heating, electrical short circuit or lightning strike, etc., may cause fire.

The seeds and bags produced by processing are all combustible materials, and the existence of a large number of combustible materials may cause fire in case of fire sources, including illegal fire, electrical failure, lightning strike and so on. "the 5.31 fire accident in the Lindian direct warehouse of China Grain Storage Heilongjiang Branch has sounded the alarm for the fire safety management of seed enterprises." Zhu Cancan said.

In the process of production, processing and equipment maintenance, when working at high places on the platforms, shelves, ladders, steps and roofs of threshing and other equipment and facilities, due to the lack of protective railings or non-compliance with the specifications, failure to use seat belts and other personal protective measures, operation errors and other reasons, there are hazards of falling from high places, resulting in casualties and equipment damage.

The use of strong toxic agent aluminum phosphide in seed fumigation, such as poor management of the fumigation process, is easy to cause personnel poisoning, and aluminum phosphide has the characteristic of spontaneous combustion when wet, which may lead to fire. Seed coating involves toxic and harmful substances, such as seed coating agent management and personnel protection is not in place, will also cause some harm to the human body.

Safety training

Personnel in specific positions should pass the corresponding national qualification examination.

Training is the main work of risk prevention and control, and new employees, personnel of specific work links, department heads and so on are the focus of the training. The middle kind of training is mainly divided into induction, group company, branch, workshop, team and other levels, and the "medium HSE training matrix" is established.

For example, for special operators and special equipment operators, it is clear that the company has electricians, motor vehicle drivers, welders, cutters, operators of pressurized boilers, etc., clear training cycle, training hours, the degree to be mastered, training methods, as well as training contents and resources. "in the training matrix, everyone can clearly see what kind of training they are going to do, whether they are leaders or ordinary employees, whether they are office administrators or people in specific positions." Zhu Cancan said.

According to the training matrix, the China seed Group carries out various forms of training activities, and the new employees will collectively go to the fire training center to study, and the personnel in specific positions will pass the corresponding national qualification examination. "the company will put the job risk identification form, safety operation procedures, emergency operation cards and other walls to facilitate everyone's access, and will also issue HSE knowledge manuals to each employee." Zhu Cancan said.

Zhu Cancan showed the reporter the online classroom made according to the training matrix. All branches can find the training content on the website according to their own needs and staff needs. As long as they follow the clues, they can conduct online training.

System management

Achieve the zero accident goal of zero injury, zero occupational disease and zero pollution

When you open the HSE management system of China seed Group, you can clearly see the real-time content of each company, such as the current risk situation, responsible person, inspection time, rectification situation, rectification deadline and so on.

"through the online system, we can know the rectification and improvement of the security issues of the branch in real time." Zhu Cancan said: but the online system is only part of it. In terms of inspection, regular comprehensive inspection, special inspection and surprise inspection are carried out every year, and the problems inspected are brought into online supervision in time and tracked in real time.

In order to make the main body of responsibility clear, China seed Group has to sign HSE letter of responsibility with the main person in charge of each branch every year, and decompose and implement the HSE work responsibilities and management indicators to each production and management unit.

China considers safety work from the perspective of corporate culture. "in order to clarify the importance of safety work, we condensed the company's HSE culture with the production safety complaint telephone number '12350' as the code name." Zhu Cancan said: to establish a management system with risk management as the core, through the two-round drive of the management of relevant standards and the construction of production safety standardization, aiming at the three elements of essential safety, behavior orientation, and management improvement, implement the five HSE mechanisms of sensible leadership, comprehensive management, continuous management improvement, incentive assessment, and staff responsibility system, and finally achieve the zero accident goal of zero injury, zero occupational disease and zero pollution.
