Accident Emergency Rescue Plans for Enterprises

In recent years, China’s enterprises have repeatedly experienced major production safety accidents. The process of accident rescue has exposed the deficiencies of enterprises in responding to major accidents, and this issue has aroused public concern. The production enterprise shall formulate an emergency emergency rescue plan for this unit as soon as possible to strengthen the management and inspection of the dangerous sources and dangerous parts so as to minimize the risk in the production process.

In order to timely control the occurrence of major accidents, effectively organize rescue and disaster relief, and prevent the expansion of accidents, the production company should conduct hazard source safety assessments for the hazardous locations and parts of the company. For all locations and sites identified as major hazards, the status and quantification of possible major accidents should be predicted in advance to assess the magnitude of hazards, casualties, equipment damage, and property damage, as well as the The possibility of fire and explosion caused by the leakage and the spread of toxic and hazardous substances may cause harm to the surrounding area. According to the forecast, the plan for emergency measures for major accidents shall be formulated in advance, and emergency rescue teams and equipment and equipment necessary for rescue operations shall be organized and trained so that, after major accidents occur, they can be implemented in time according to the reservation plan and the accidents can be controlled within a short period of time. Or rescue and evacuation personnel in accordance with the correct methods and procedures to prevent accidents from expanding and causing unnecessary losses.

I. Establishment of a command organization for accident emergency rescue

The 80th International Labour Conference in 1993 adopted the "Convention and Proposals for the Prevention of Major Industrial Accidents." The convention requires member states to formulate and implement national policies for the identification, evaluation and control of major hazard sources (major hazard facilities) to prevent the occurrence of major industrial accidents.

Due to the complexity of industrial activities, different manufacturing companies have different sources of danger and major hazards. The major internationally recognized major accidents refer to serious fire, explosion and poison leakage accidents. Therefore, companies should establish a command organization for accident emergency rescue. Its structure is as follows:

1. Command system and its responsibilities

(1) Develop an emergency command organization chart.

(2) Familiar with the legislative documents and regulations concerning emergency rescue.

2. Command and lead agencies and their responsibilities

(1) Command Leading Group and its responsibilities:

a. Responsible for the formulation, revision and improvement of the "emergency rescue plan".

b. Responsible for the formation of emergency rescue professional teams.

c. Responsible for organizing the actual training of emergency teams, rescue teams, and medical teams.

d. Responsible for the establishment of communication and alarm systems, and reserve equipment and supplies for rescue, rescue and rescue operations.

e. Responsible for supervising the prevention of accidents and regular inspections of safety measures.

(2) Emergency Rescue Command and its responsibilities

a. When an accident occurs, issue and release emergency rescue orders and signals.

b. The situation of the accident was reported to the superior authorities, the local government and the neighboring units.

c. If necessary, send emergency rescue requests to the local government and relevant units.

d. Responsible for the organization of accident investigation.

e. Responsible for summing up lessons learned from accidents and experience in emergency rescue.

3. The division of personnel in the headquarters

The general commander is responsible for organizing the company's emergency rescue command.

The deputy commander assists the commander in charge of the specific command of the emergency rescue.

The person in charge of the security department assisted the commander to do a good job in accident reporting, briefing, and accident management.

The person in charge of the security department is responsible for fire fighting, alerting, security, evacuation and road control.

The person in charge of the production department (or the dispatcher): responsible for the dispatching of the production system at the time of the accident handling, on-site communication contact and external contact.

Person in charge of the electrical and mechanical (equipment) department: Assist the commander in charge of the on-site command of the engineering rescue and repair work.

The person in charge of the health department (including the epidemic prevention station chief and the hospital dean) is responsible for on-site medical rescue command and casualties, classification and rescue of poisoning personnel, and escorting and transferring work.

Head of Logistics (General Affairs) Department: Responsible for repairing and rescuing the supply of necessary necessities for casualties and poisoning personnel.

The person in charge of the supply and sales department is responsible for the supply and transportation of emergency relief supplies.

The person in charge of the environmental protection department is responsible for the monitoring and handling of the accident site and the proliferation of hazardous toxic substances.

Second, establish various safeguards for accident emergency rescue

1. Communication security: It includes the composition, tasks, and related signal requirements of wired, wireless, alarm, and coordinated communications to ensure unblocked and unimpeded communication.

2. Transportation security: Including the number and quantity of rescue vehicles, and clarifying the mission requirements.

3. Rescue material protection includes the requirements for types, quantities, and numbers of emergency rescue equipment and supplies.

4. Security protection includes the division of tasks among security personnel, the division of key warning target areas, and the safe and unimpeded road traffic.

III. Estimating the scope and potential danger of accident diffusion

1. Risk assessment based on the nature of dangerous goods

According to the nature of the dangerous goods involved in the hazard, production process, weather conditions, geographical location, etc., to estimate the types of accidents that may occur and the scope of the impact. If an accident involves a chemical, its toxicity, volatility, extensibility, oxidation rate, release, and its concentration are estimated.

2. According to the production process for potential risk assessment

A potentially dangerous assessment of each identified hazard goal is made. In the event of an accident, the consequences that may be caused may be harm to the surrounding equipment, production processes, and the environment and its scope. Forecasting can lead to the occurrence of accidents and expand the way. According to the range of dangers that may expand the scope, determine the emergency rescue target and control the development of the accident.

IV. Improvement of the supporting system for emergency rescue plans and training of professional teams

1. Establish the corresponding rules and regulations

In order to be able to quickly, accurately, and effectively carry out rescue and rescue work after an accident, it is necessary to formulate rules and regulations for emergency rescue plans and do a good job of preparations. The company’s employees are regularly educated on common sense in emergency response and post responsibility systems are implemented. At the same time, the following corresponding systems should be established:

(1) On-duty system: A 24-hour on-duty shift system is established. Night shifts are in charge of administrative duty and production scheduling, and timely handling of problems.

(2) Inspection system: Each month, the enterprise's emergency rescue command team combines production safety work to check the emergency rescue work situation, and discover problems in a timely manner.

(3) Regular meeting system: Each quarter, the accident emergency rescue command team will organize a meeting of the command team members and the heads of rescue teams to check the work of the previous quarter, and actively take effective measures to address problems and improve them.

2. Strengthen the training of rescue teams

The command team must start from the actual situation of the company and organize at least one simulated rescue training exercise each year for accidents that may cause accidents. In the event of an accident, the commanding organization can correctly command, and each rescue team can timely and effectively eliminate dangerous situations according to their respective tasks, control and eliminate accidents, rescue the wounded, and do emergency rescue work.

3. The government should formulate an emergency rescue plan

The local government shall evaluate the major hazard sources within the jurisdiction, determine the distribution of major hazard sources, and formulate emergency rescue plans. Once the hazardous source enterprises identified in the jurisdiction have serious accidents, they should implement emergency assistance plans to support enterprises that have major accidents, implement social assistance support, and provide necessary assistance so that the company's accidents can be controlled more smoothly.
