Measures for Preventing and Curbing Major and Particularly Serious Work Safety Accidents in the Fireworks and Firecrackers Production and Business Operations Sector (Draft for Comments)

The measures apply to fireworks and firecrackers manufacturers, wholesale businesses and retail outlets, and also concern safety regulators, design entities and safety assessment institutions. They require strict review of safety facility designs and safety assessments for construction projects; compliance with licensing conditions; fulfillment of safety responsibilities by principal persons in charge and all employees; training and hazard investigation and remediation. Violations such as exceeding approved personnel or explosive-material quantities, operating beyond the licensed scope, unlawful production or business operations, unsafe work practices and misuse of information systems are subject to penalties; serious cases may result in suspension for rectification, license revocation or closure. Manufacturers must conduct type testing and factory inspection under mandatory national standards, while wholesalers and retailers must inspect goods upon receipt. The measures also strengthen accident investigation, digital supervision and coordination between administrative enforcement and criminal justice.
