BEIJING - China will launch a two-month?campaign to inspect work safety nationwide on April 5, according?to the work safety commission of the State Council, or the?Cabinet. ? ?
Serious accidents took place in succession in some areas and?industries recently, which shows negligence and loopholes in work?safety management and serious violations to laws and regulations, said a circular issued by the commission. ? ?
The campaign would include self-examination by enterprises, government inspection and public supervision. ? ?
Enterprises are required to complete self-examination in April?and local governments to conduct inspection in May, while the?commission would dispatch supervision teams to check their work. ? ?
The nationwide campaign comes days after 153 coal miners were?trapped in a flooded coal mine in north China's Shanxi province, which will be China's worst mining disaster in more than two years if the miners cannot be saved.??
