Do you have a pair of "safety shoes" it? 1 Speaking of labor protection
articles, the first we may think of helmets, safety belts, gloves, and safety
shoes, protective boots, the foot of the supplies used to protect workers,
often overlooked. In fact, because the workers using the tools, operation of
machinery, materials handling operations, feet Tong Chang at the operating
position of the lowest part, at any time be exposed to heavy, hard, with edges
of objects, so that was crushing, sprain or Ji Shang; on the other hand, if the
feet do not stand firm, the body will lose its balance and undermine the normal
operating position, may lead to accidents. This seems to protect the feet of
the safety equipment is especially important. According to a special operating
conditions selected suitable protective footwear, it is possible to prevent
foot injuries. However, you have a pair of "safety shoes" it? Protective
footwear features you know it? Now more common protective footwear include:
safety shoes, rubber shoes, anti-static and conductive shoes, steel shoes and
shoe covers, boots, cold, in addition to road construction workers in the soles
for insulation for construction workers in the soles reinforcement for food,
wine workers soles moisture protection shoes. The main functions of protective
footwear for the working environment and conditions set, generally have non-
slip, anti-piercing, anti-squeeze functionality, the other is a specific
function, such as anti-conductive, anti-corrosion. It is learned that China's
annual industrial and mining business enterprises tens of thousands of various
types of production safety accidents, the death of more than l million. In
addition, the occupational hazards of the situation is very serious. At
present, toxic, hazardous enterprise than l 600 thousand, by the number of
occupational hazards in more than 200 million. To reduce casualties, reduce job
hazards, in addition to establishing, and improve the responsibility system,
increased security investment to improve safety conditions and facilities, we
also need equipment standards Ti Xi Wan Shan individual Fang Hu, improve the
level of personal protective equipment, enhanced employee self- protection. Why
are some workers wear flip-flops to work?Do not wear a helmet, suffered
accidental injury in, because the head injury, is likely to cause serious
injury or even death; but do not wear protective footwear, the damage will be
much less contrast, very few would endanger to life. It is precisely for this
reason, the right of workers to wear protective footwear is often overlooked.
State Labor Protection Products Quality Supervision and Inspection Center of
Cheng Chun senior engineer, said in an interview, they go to construction sites
for inspection, found that many workers wear the shoes, even sandals.And in
accordance with regulations, construction site workers must work need to wear
safety shoes to protect toes, so the shoes because of the steel Baoxie head,
can effectively avoid the crush hard objects, such as external metal sprain
injuries. But the workers are wearing shoes or slippers, simply serve to
protect the toe of the role. Information shows that our personal protective
equipment industry after 50 years of development, has become a relatively
complete, production, supply and more stable, richer product variety can
basically meet the production needs of industry in reducing casualties, to
protect workers health aspects played an important role. However, the concept
of lag due to various reasons, personal protective equipment was largely
overlooked, especially to protect life and safety of hand, foot and that seems
unrelated to the labor and supplies is ignored. Some workers believe that the
working clothes and shoes just to wear uniforms, or reflect the way the welfare
units, and some personal protective equipment does not meet the needs of modern
production, which lead to personal protective equipment, including safety
footwear little attention. It is understood that a long time, personal
protective equipment industry and other high-tech industries and advanced
industries, the inadequate investment, slow growth. Some of the major high-tech
enterprises, high-standard products are exported. As an example, in 2000
entered the field of personal protection, mining PVC boots for five consecutive
years of record exports, the first Sunflower International Group (China) Co.,
Ltd. Most of its turnover comes from export to Europe. The relevant responsible
person said, they were not unwilling to sell in the domestic market, is limited
to domestic enterprises in equipment investment in less protective of workers,
the relevant state laws, regulations implementing the enforcement is not
enough, lagging behind industry standards. And Cheng Jun also said that
restricting the development of our protective footwear is an issue the cost of
shoes. Background on the current view, purchase of protective footwear
companies can accept the price there at a relatively low level and low level
this determines the cost of products, resulting in low quality shoes can not
pass. In fact, our need to develop new standards in personal protective
equipment gradually move closer to EU standards and ISO standards for the pace
has not stopped, but as society progresses, people on personal protective
equipment, the variety and quality requirements are high, the individual
protective equipment product development provided a space, put a higher demand
for its standard. As early as 1988, the former national labor protection
articles Standardization Technical Committee to carry out the labor standard
system of protective equipment. As the body repeatedly change the standards of
labor protection are not achieved the desired objectives. With China's
accession to WTO, ISO standards related to the change, and the current safety
of the requirements of individual protective equipment standards put forward
new demands. It is reported that personal protective equipment in the developed
and promulgated a series of national standards and industry standards, national
standards are being developed as part of the process. Standards related to
safety footwear on, in 2005 one in February, the Central Iron and Steel Group,
Wuhan Safety and Environmental Protection Research Institute in charge of
drafting the formulation (Amendment) of the four national standards through
validation, these four criteria, "Personal Protective Equipment - shoes
testing, "" Personal Protective Equipment - safety shoes, "" Personal
Protective Equipment - Protective Footwear "and" individual protective
equipment - Occupational footwear "in Xiamen, Fujian adopted by the National
Personal Protective Equipment Standardization Technical Committee (CSBTS / TC
January 12) the audited organization. This standard covers the four individual
protective equipment and footwear as an important national quality testing
methods and specific quality standards. Four standard system (revising) the
completion of the work on promoting the quality of our footwear protective
equipment to improve and achieve with international standards and so is of
great significance.State Labor Protection Products Quality Supervision and
Inspection Center Senior Engineer Jun Cheng told reporters the four protective
footwear for more than a new standard in 2006 completed a Draft for Approval.
These four standards, including safety shoes, protective shoes, professional
shoes, on the original standards (including "General technical requirements
insulation shoes", "General technical requirements for protective footwear
oil", etc.) than there are great changes. The original national standards are
industry standards, is the Ministry of Labour Ministry of Labour issued the
standard ALD, relatively focused on the protection of toe area, and does not
reflect the comprehensive protection. Original standard, in addition to
"General technical requirements insulation shoes", the rest of the standard
will be replaced by the new standards. Cheng Chun said, safety shoes,
protective shoes standard and very different from the original standard was
mainly reflected in the shoes of the original standard functions involved
relatively simple, but very complex workplace, protection of the foot should
have the versatility of the scene; The new standards adopted international
standard, ISO standards, which are consistent with European standards. In
addition, safety shoes, protective shoes in the original basis of additional
features added. Occupational shoes, the main protection against non-toe shoes,
reflecting a comprehensive protection than the current comprehensive national
standards higher. She explained that currently has not implemented the new
standards. Notified to the WTO because of the need for three months, it is
learned that the standard has been submitted in June estimated that in
September will return, after OK, and then will be implemented. How new
standards will bring change? The new standards will not be on the domestic
manufacture of safety footwear companies great change? Cheng Chun said the new
standard for enterprise technology implementation is mainly a test. China is
producing shoes big country, a number of Guangdong, Tianjin, a large shoe
company, its products are mainly export-oriented. Therefore, they have reached
international standards, EU standards, the implementation of the new standards
should not be a problem. The new standards emphasize not only protection
performance, the mechanical and comfort requirements also have higher, that is,
to embody the human. This also led to increased cost of safety shoes. It is
expected that some small businesses because of cost increase, or fail to close
down the appropriate standards, and some large enterprises have sufficient
production capacity of enterprises, because the increase in production, you can
offset the effect of the increase in costs to enterprises better development.但
other Qiye some domestic, as production scale small, You Kenenghaishi workshop
style of the production of hand-Fang Shi, Zhi Zao's Anquan shoes Xingnengbugou
Wen Ding, Zai Shang a Fangmian need to enhance quality control. What kind of
shoes to wear to have control of what to wear protective footwear lack of
supervision, Cheng Jun, said this is one of the reasons that lead to accidents.
Lack of supervision led to the accident or the accident of workers suffered
greater damage. She said, for users, what kind of shoes should be worn,
according to professional needs of their shoes the kind of protection, so no
one to supervise the work. Some companies have security staff checks, but their
efforts often fail, or security officer can not find workers in protective
footwear failed. Another purpose of monitoring is to check whether the job
requirements of shoes. Cheng Chun said the company, enterprises in the
procurement of supplies when the labor usually through labor companies, even
large enterprises, not necessarily linked directly to purchasing products with
the manufacturers that purchase labor insurance company always has and whether
the quality can meet the requirement is One of the problems. This lack of
supervision has led to a number of unqualified labor supplies into the hands of
users. Our personal protective equipment standard status after years of
efforts, China has formulated the individual protective equipment and issued a
series of national standards and industry standards. Individual protection
standard has two forms: one tailored protection standards, the other is in the
product standards or other standards are listed in the requirements and targets
related to protection. Content from the standard terms, the individual
protection standards are: protection base standards, protective methods
standards, protection product standards. According to preliminary statistics,
as of 2004, China has enacted national standards for personal protective
aspects of four or five, nine standards are revised, there are 27 national
standards-making process is new. In this 72 standards, mandatory standards 36.
Mandatory criteria that include helmets, safety nets, protective masks,
protective glasses, protective clothing, protective shoes, respirators and
other products common technical standards and specialized product category
standards. In addition, the former Ministry of Labor, the former Ministry of
Coal has developed more than 30 aspects of the industry standard for personal
protection. Personal protective equipment standards from the coverage point of
view, including: head protection, respiratory protection, eye and face
protection, body protection, foot protection, hand protection, fall protection
and so on. Head protection standards: safety helmet, safety helmet test
methods; respiratory protection standard are: mining carbon monoxide filter
self, isolated positive pressure oxygen breathing apparatus, etc.; eye and face
protection standard are: eye and face protection welding, welding goggles and
face shields and other non-optical test methods; torso protection standards
are: flame-retardant protective clothing, X-ray protective clothing, welding
protective clothing, etc.; foot protection standards: General requirements
protective footwear, cloth shoes and other low-voltage insulation; hand
Department of Protection standards: General requirements for protective gloves,
dip glove, labor conditions, skin-care agent General; against falling
standards: safety nets, safety belts, belt test methods.Types of protective
footwear (1) safety shoes. Nursing toe safety shoes, also known as anti-
smashing shoes, mainly in order to prevent objects crushing the foot and toes.
Such as heavy lifting or handling materials for rolling drums, heavy tube feet,
or accidentally hit a sharp kick on the metal panels. Header with the first
shoes with good shock resistance, high strength, light weight metal material of
the liner, its strength, impact resistance and so on to go through a trial, the
required standard before use. Note To choose a different intensity according to
the severity of work safety shoes. (B) insulated shoes. Insulation is the role
of shoes when the risk of electric shock to minimize. Because of electric shock
when the current is passed through the body into the ground contact point, so
when the electrical work not only to wear insulated gloves and wear insulated
shoes. Pressure range under two 0kV, 6 kV and 5 kV insulation several shoes
used to be under the operational range of options. Insulated footwear should be
inspected regularly and maintenance, such as damp or badly worn, you can not
play a protective effect.(C) anti-static and conductive footwear. Anti-static
shoes for the prevention of accidents caused by the human body with static
electricity and avoid 22 0V-frequency capacitance devices on the human body
caused by accidental electric shock. Conductive shoes are more sensitive to
static electricity on the human body might place a fire or explosion. Some of
this shoe safety shoes and rubber shoes with anti-static or conductive soles,
the shoes without metal, to reduce the possibility of friction fire. Shoes from
the beginning used for resistance testing should. Then also tested periodically
to ensure that the shoe does not exceed the maximum allowable value of
resistance. (D) of the steel shoes and shoe covers. Such shoes also known as
the founder shoes, mainly to prevent the foot burns stinging. Such shoes should
be resistant to pressure, nonflammable, have oiled leather uppers and canvas
Xiang face leather, cow leather soles are tire substrates. In order to prevent
molten metal splash liquid burns off all trade with high waist style. You can
also use shoe covers to shoes, mouth, leg cover, shoes cover more canvas,
asbestos, aluminum made. (E) rubber boots. Their use are anti-acid boots,
waterproof boots, oil resistant shoes. Anti-acid boots suitable for operating
the ground with acid-base etching solutions and other places, with acid rubber
trousers and boots are also linked to anti-acid pants boots, waterproof boots
for the ground water or splash water operations , the basic material is rubber,
waterproof boots are miners, aquatic special boots, boots and other
planting.Anti-oil contaminated with shoes for ground operations, with rubber or
polyethylene plastic, there are boots, shoes and so on. (F) cold shoes.
Suitable for cold and low temperature operation intended to be worn with
cotton-padded shoes, fur boots and Zhan Xue, etc., with good insulation
properties. In addition to these several protective shoes, there are also
suitable for road construction workers in the sole insulation for construction
workers reinforced soles, suitable for food, brewery workers in protective sole
shoes and so damp. Selection and use of protective shoes (1) In addition to
protective footwear choose according to the type of operating conditions, it
should also fit, were comfortable to wear, it is important to carefully select
the right shoe. (B) of the protective footwear must have non-slip design, not
only to protect the feet from injury, but also to prevent operator accidents
caused by slipping. (C) the different properties of protective shoes,
protective properties to achieve their own technical indicators, such as not to
be crushing the toes, soles of the feet are not being stabbed, insulated
conductive requirements. However, safety shoes is not a panacea. (D) use of
protective shoes carefully inspected or tested before, in the electrical and
acid-base operations, damage and cracks in the protective shoes are dangerous.
(E) protective shoes after going to the proper custody, rubber shoes, after
flushing with fresh water or disinfectant, and drying to extend life. Anti-oil
Safety Shoes Shoes for the use of standard area of oil or oil spill sites;
waterproof shoes for the ground water or splash water in the workplaces; cold
shoes for low temperature operating officer of foot protection against
frostbite. Anti-puncture shoes for foot protection, and prevent all kinds of
hard objects sharp stab. Anti-smashing shoes main function is to prevent
falling objects crushing foot. Shoes have impact before the header material.
Steel shoes main function is to prevent burns, puncture cut, should be able to
withstand a certain static pressure and resistance to a certain temperature,
non-flammable. These shoes suitable for smelting, blast furnace, cast
iron.Apart from the above there are some supporting the use of special shoes
covered, such as canvas, asbestos, aluminum material of shoes cover. Protective
shoes, protective shoes, the choice of the selection and maintenance work
should be based on harm to the environment and harm to nature. Certificate
should be protective footwear products and product specifications.Use the
control conditions of use before reading the instructions, use the method
correctly.Special protective shoes, should be checked after use and keep clean,
stored in clean dry place. Protective shoes, protective shoes, electrical
insulation more types, such as leather safety shoes, antistatic shoes and
plastic face smashed against safety shoes, insulated boots, insulated rubber
boots low pressure, acid leather shoes, boots acid, acid plastic molding boots,
shoes, high temperature protection, anti-piercing shoes, protective shoes
welding. Should be based on the content of the different operating areas and
choose to use. Construction Site on the common insulated boots (shoes), welding
protective footwear, rubber boots and leather safety of acid shoes. Shoe
insulation requirements are: must be specified voltage range in use; rubber
shoes (boots) plastic material Bufen free from breaks, and every six months as
a preventive test; in water immersion, oil, acid, alkali and other conditions
not on the supplemented safety equipment to use. Standard system of personal
protective equipment PPE standard vision system of the initial ideas are: 1.
Levels: personal protective equipment standards are divided into professional
common standards, common standards and product categories, three levels of
technical standards. The first level is the professional common standards,
mainly to provide personal protective equipment in common, the most basic
standards, such as personal protective equipment, the classification and
terminology, use planning, test methods. The second level is the common
standard categories, the main provisions of head protection, respiratory
protection, eye and face protection and other categories of common standards,
including basic standards, methods, standards, such as protective gloves and
technical requirements, electrical insulation shoes General requirements.The
third level is the product standards, divided into two scenarios, one of the
similar products (mainly a collection of the same product protection) provides
general technical requirements; second is a product of a required standard,
such as flame-retardant protective clothing. 2. Contents: a standard personal
protective equipment should include: head protection, respiratory protection,
eye and face protection, hearing protection, body protection, hand protection,
skin care products, foot protection, fall protection and other types of
protection 10 categories. 3.Type: personal protective equipment standards are
divided into basic standards, methods, standards, product standards and other
three kinds. Based mainly on the professional standards of common standards,
common standards in the basic categories of the content of the corresponding
provisions, such as the terminology, use rules, the provisions of general
technical conditions, such as the selection rules for labor protection
products, protective footwear General technical conditions. The Standard
General Standard for the major categories relating to the test methods, testing
methods to provide, such as seat belt detection methods, helmet test methods.
Product standards mainly a product of similar products or a corresponding
provision. PPE process of a standard system. Personal Protective Equipment
Standard System with social progress, economic development, improving people's
living standards, safety and health awareness of employees increased, the
government in preventing occupational accidents, occupational hazards
strengthening efforts on personal protection equipment, increasing demand, the
variety of individual protective equipment, quality requirements are high, not
only for the personal protective equipment products, provides a broad space for
development, but also on the individual a higher standard of protection
requirements. To meet the needs of the situation, personal protective equipment
needed to carry out the research standard system, so that personal protective
equipment standards development and revision of scientific and standardized. 2.
Personal Protective Equipment in the standard formulation and revision of
national standards to solve the standard age is too long and repetitive issues
of aging, starting from 2004, the National Standardization Management Committee
of the National Standards for rectification. Currently, this work has ended,
the integration of the relevant standards amendments revise and develop
individual plans, requirements must be completed before 2008. Establish the
standards currently being developed and modified units, and will strengthen
supervision and inspection. 3. The transformation of binding international
standards for personal protective equipment standard system, personal
protective equipment, according to China's current production, testing,
inspection, accelerate the ISO, EN (European Standard), JIS (Japanese
Industrial Standards) and other international organizations and the
countriestransformation of the individual protection standards to improve the
level of our personal protective equipment, to achieve our personal protective
equipment standards and international standards. Through years of efforts, and
gradually establish an Appropriate personal protective equipment standard
system.
