What was the first time?

"The first time" refers to the earliest time after the incident.

For example:

(1) "Every day after training, I want to talk to my son on the phone as soon as possible. When I heard his voice, I felt tired and worried. " (Contemporary Sports 200 1/2 1)

⑵ "20065438+0 10/7 October, after the China team realized its dream of going global, she immediately sent a congratulatory message to □□□' s mobile phone." (Life Times 2002/3/ 12)

Whenever there is an accident, in the press conference or briefing materials of the government involved, or in relevant news reports, the rhetoric such as "the first time" has almost become a routine rhetoric. It is puzzling that such a constant distortion of the "first time" is rarely questioned or opposed by the superior officials involved in the investigation. No wonder Zhao Ruihua's question is so impressive that those who are used to saying "the first time" are unexpected and can't answer when.

"The first time" refers to the earliest time after the incident, which was originally very specific and clear. However, in the government officials where the accident happened, "the first time" has become synonymous with fooling people. Even a few hours after the accident, as long as the leader is not on the scene or the accident rescue is not in place, it is not the "first time". Leaders will have what they call "the first time" when they arrive at the scene. What is even more incredible is that rescuers arrived at the scene of the accident earlier than the leaders, but in order to highlight the leaders' quick handling of the accident, "the first time" always gave way to the leaders, as if the leaders could not do it without rescue.

The frequent occurrence of "the first time" fully exposed the deliberate concealment and prevarication of the government where the accident occurred. Therefore, the author is very supportive of the accident report "Don't mention the first time in the future, just say the specific time". However, it is not easy to completely "drive away" the "first time" from the accident handling.

On the one hand, it is necessary to strictly distinguish between accident reporting time and disposal time. Although accident reporting is also an aspect of disposal, it cannot be confused. It should be unconditional to report the accident at the first time. As long as it meets the reporting level, it should be reported in the shortest time, at least at the same time. Once the reporting time and rescue are mixed together, it will inevitably lead to waiting to report the case, and it will inevitably lay the groundwork for concealment. The more tolerant you are about the accident, the more careless you are about this "first time", and the more it will interfere with the establishment of accident investigation basis and accountability basis.

On the other hand, accident handling is different from the presence of leaders. There are emergency plans in every place where the accident happened. It is much more beneficial to do what you should do, especially the timely and effective action of professional rescuers, than just having leaders present. However, a strange phenomenon is that many places attach great importance to the "first time" when governors, mayors and county heads arrive at the scene. Not to mention that leaders are busy with official business, even if they are waiting for disposal in the office, it is not necessarily that every accident can arrive at the scene before rescuers. It is also based on the mandatory regulations or habits of the leaders who rushed to the scene at the first time, which leads to the ambiguity of "the first time" and can be minimized.

Therefore, making the "first time" a specific "few minutes" in accident handling is not only a matter of wording correction, but also related to whether the hidden dangers of major accidents are eliminated beforehand, whether the pre-plan is implemented, whether the accident report is realistic, whether the rescue is professional first, whether the concealment is not reported in time, and whether the delay is severely investigated. It can be said that "the first time" is not wrong. What is wrong is that officials use it as a shield and continue to "soft land" in the case of poor accident reporting and handling.

In the face of repeated reports from local officials that the leaders rushed to the scene at the first time, the police took control of the ship owner at the first time. Zhao Ruihua, an official of the State Administration of Work Safety, could not help but ask, "When was the first time?" Local officials were speechless. Zhao Ruihua said that in the future, don't mention the first time and say the specific time. This is the basis for accident investigation and accountability.
