Trade union protection of labor protection rights

Introduction

It is the basic responsibility of trade unions to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of employees. By safeguarding rights, trade unions play their due role in coordinating labor relations, thereby maximizing the enthusiasm and creativity of employees. . Carrying out mass labor protection work is determined by the nature of the trade union itself. The "Trade Union Law" requires that "trade union organizations perform labor protection supervision and inspection responsibilities in accordance with the law, establish a labor protection supervision and inspection system, implement mass supervision of work safety, and safeguard the rights and interests of employees." "Legitimate rights and interests" embodies the maintenance function of the trade union and is also an important responsibility assigned to the trade union by the party and the state. It is related to the fundamental interests of the country and the vital interests of the employees. It is an important task that the trade union provides around the eternal theme of enterprise safety production. A precise positioning of oneself.

Integrated with creation

The labor protection work of trade unions must be combined with "creation" and play a radiating function

To carry out labor protection work, it is the union's assistance to administrative matters. It is an effective method and means to conduct safety education for employees, safeguard their interests, and promote the development of enterprises. It has a subtle effect on improving the safety awareness, responsibility awareness, and technical level of all employees. Labor protection work has become an important aspect for the healthy development of enterprises, stabilizing the team, and enhancing core competitiveness.

Safe production is to safeguard the right to life and health of employees. As long as there is production and people working, labor protection must be inseparable. This puts forward comprehensive and strict work requirements for labor unions to carry out labor protection work. No gold is pure, and no man is perfect. Workers and technicians on the front line of production have relative shortcomings and shortcomings in their individual skills and business, which has become an aspect that deserves special attention and reminders when carrying out labor protection work. At the same time, the strength or weakness of safety awareness among personnel and the high or low level of technical strength not only reflect differences in individual work abilities, but also have a certain impact on enterprise safety production.

In this regard, trade union organizations must closely focus on the strategy of "coordinating enterprise development with employee development", and from the perspective of building a safe platform for enterprises, a talent arena for employees, and a harmonious stage for development, the labor union must Protection work is organically integrated with the activities of “creating a learning organization and becoming knowledge workers”. Focusing on the center and serving the overall situation, we actively create an atmosphere that values ??production safety and improve employees' safety quality and self-protection capabilities. It is necessary to organize employees to learn labor protection policies and regulations and enterprise rules and regulations related to labor protection and production safety to avoid "peaks and valleys" in safety awareness; it is necessary to carry out technical research and "pair learning skills" and "one post with multiple abilities". " and various forms of technical training activities to guide employees to use their high personal skills to ensure their own safety, the safety of others, and the safety of the enterprise, so as to avoid repeated "paying tuition" in accidents. This will not only help improve employees' awareness of labor protection, but also help promote the "upgrade" of personal technical business and achieve "strong cooperation" in completing tasks.

To sum up, the purpose of combining labor union labor protection work with "creation" activities is to improve employees' safety awareness, professionalism and professional skills, thereby producing a radiation effect, reaching 1+ The effect of 1>2.

Being connected with culture

The labor protection work of trade unions must be connected with "culture" and play a cohesive function

The labor protection work of enterprise trade unions mainly includes establishing and strengthening trade unions A long-term supervision mechanism for labor protection, participating in the entire process of labor protection management and labor protection supervision, promoting the in-depth development of mass labor protection activities, and ultimately realizing the fundamental goal of safeguarding the right to labor protection, the largest, most basic and most important rights and interests of employees. Task.

As representatives of the interests of the masses, trade unions must be good at using a variety of methods to carry out safety cultural activities that are novel, educational and entertaining and widely participated by employees, and improve personnel's understanding of production safety through cultural penetration. and execution ability, create a safety cultural atmosphere of group prevention and group control, and give full play to the potential function of safety culture to moisturize things silently.

First, the safety concept must be publicized online at all times. Trade union labor protection work must adhere to the principle of mass prevention and mass governance, innovate labor protection supervision methods, enrich labor protection supervision content, maximize employees' labor safety and health quality, mobilize employees' subjective initiative to prevent and rectify occupational hazards, and seek labor union labor protection Maximize effectiveness of supervision work. All employees need to be unified in thinking and the safety concept needs to be implanted.

For example, by writing safety culture manuals, making safety slogans, setting up safety culture corridors, developing safety websites, conducting safety discussions, etc., employees can learn safety concepts at any time and feel the safety cultural atmosphere; by holding safety operating procedures examinations for all employees, safety Skills competitions, safety knowledge competitions, etc. encourage employees to learn safety concepts in competitions; "Safety is in My Heart" essay contests, speech contests, safety art series performances, etc. are held to allow employees to feel the influence of safety culture in entertainment.

The second is to infiltrate security activities into management. The vitality of the trade union comes from various tangible and effective carriers of activities, and it plays the role of "mobilization of all people". In this regard, the trade union must first guide all members to sing the "theme song" well. Safety production work has certain temporal characteristics, and different seasons have different theme requirements. For example, protection against cold and frost should be carried out in winter, and heatstroke prevention and cooling should be carried out in summer. The most in-depth direct management activity is to effectively carry out work with trade union characteristics around production. For example, in order to ensure the safety of production and the smooth completion of work, based on objective and subjective factors such as the working environment, work requirements, and staff's technical abilities and personal emotions, we carry out labor safety mutual insurance in trade unions and fill in hazard point pre-control cards, etc. The corresponding methods of reminding each other, caring for each other, and restricting each other are good means of protection. Secondly, we must make good "combination punches". Safety is brand, benefit, responsibility, guarantee and image. The labor protection work of trade unions cannot be limited to safety management, but must also enter into safety management. The labor protection work of trade unions must be made more insightful and insightful by carrying out safety production months, collection of safety rationalization suggestions, Ankang Cup competitions, trade union labor protection demonstration evaluations, etc. Every employee of the company can be more clear about their own production safety responsibilities and exert an overall effect to ensure the company's various safety production and operation goals are successfully achieved.

Being associated with culture not only improves employees’ labor protection awareness and business capabilities, but also cultivates the sentiments that modern enterprise employees should have. The trade union penetrates all employees through "non-material" cultural construction and enters management. The publicity, organization, education, planning and other functions it embodies will definitely make enterprise production full of vitality and vitality.

Be consistent with safeguarding rights

The labor protection work of trade unions must be integrated with “protecting rights” and give full play to its service function

The interests of the masses are no small matter. The life and health of employees is the "first interest", and ensuring personal safety is the "first priority" of labor protection work. Trade union organizations must be highly responsible to the country, the people, and the workers, take safeguarding the safety and health of workers as the main task of safeguarding their rights, and enhance their consciousness of doing a good job in labor protection.

To realize and implement this "first interest" and "first priority", we must grasp the "five degrees": First, we must strengthen source participation. Trade unions must make full use of the workers’ congress to “focus” on enterprise safety production and labor protection work, and supervise the handling of labor protection proposals during the process of proposal collection, review, and handling; when negotiating on an equal footing with enterprise administration and signing collective contracts, they must Labor protection clauses should be formulated based on in-depth research and demonstration; the implementation of labor protection measures should be checked by organizing employee representatives to carry out labor safety inspection activities.

The second is to strengthen the depth of the "Ankang Cup" competition. The "Ankang Cup" competition is a mass activity. Employees are not only participants in this activity, but also recipients of education, and they are also the ultimate beneficiaries. The trade union needs to coordinate the strengthening of employees' awareness of production safety with the promotion of stable development of enterprises, highlight competition goals and methods, pay attention to pertinence and long-term effectiveness, and cultivate employees to establish the awareness that I want safety, I will be safe, and I will ensure safety, so as to achieve The purpose of all members enjoying "health" makes the mass "Health Cup" competition play a greater role.

The third is to improve the "cleanliness" of employees' working and resting environments. Trade unions need to make full use of their own production safety supervision and inspection network, actively reflect employees' wishes and requirements for corporate labor hygiene, and encourage companies to control dust and noise at production sites to reduce "noise" for the lives and health of employees. It is necessary to promote the coordinated development of enterprise production and environmental protection through knowledge competitions on the Environmental Protection Law, Labor Protection Law, Cleaner Production Law and related laws and regulations, labor protection work exchange meetings, and promotion meetings.

The fourth is to strengthen the scope of doing practical things for employees. The labor protection work of trade unions is not only about appearance, but also about heart. There needs to be a new level of understanding and new breakthroughs in form.

It is necessary to organize and carry out mass sports activities suitable for different ages and levels to create their own fitness "dynamic zone" for employees; to further broaden the scope of labor union labor through occupational health monitoring physical examinations, occupational disease prevention and control, physical fitness tests, and the establishment and improvement of employee health files, etc. Protect channels and do more practical things for employees.

The fifth is to strengthen the speed of training special teams. Labor protection mainly includes three aspects: safety technology, industrial hygiene and labor protection system. Trade unions must fully exercise the rights of representation, participation and supervision in labor protection work granted by the Trade Union Law, Labor Law, Production Safety Law and Occupational Disease Prevention and Control Law, and build a team that understands policies and dares to safeguard rights. , and a well-supervised labor protection work team of labor unions, which plays an important role in improving the effectiveness of rights protection. With the development of enterprises and the progress of the times, the construction of special labor protection teams of trade unions also has the requirement to "speed up". Therefore, the trade union needs to further strengthen the training and construction speed of special teams from the perspective of promoting safe production in enterprises, realizing the legitimate rights and interests of employees' safety and health, and promoting harmonious progress.

Development Guidance

Safety and health are the greatest interests of the employees. Maintaining the safety and health legitimate rights and interests of the employees in the production process is related to the overall development and stability of the enterprise. Only for this reason, the labor protection work of trade unions must be guided by the Scientific Outlook on Development, adhere to the people-oriented principle, and adhere to the principles of focusing on practice, practicality, and effectiveness, further emancipating the mind, broadening horizons, and creating a group prevention, group control, and group prevention and group governance system. atmosphere and make new contributions to the safe development of enterprises.
