High temperature labor protection should have an "upgraded version"
2022-07-19
Special commentator of this newspaper The labor environment is changing, the labor group is changing, the labor content is changing, and the demand for high-temperature protection is also changing. High temperature labor protection needs to keep pace with the times. Upgrading the high-temperature labor security mechanism requires static system adjustment and dynamic supervision and protection. The labor supervision department should strengthen the publicity of law popularization and law enforcement inspection, educate and urge the employing units to enhance their awareness of self-discipline and fulfill their responsibilities of high-temperature labor protection. Trade union organizations should play a good supervisory role, actively participate in the construction of high-temperature labor protection system and collective negotiation on the protection of high-temperature rights and interests, and support and guide workers to safeguard their rights in accordance with the law. Every summer, outdoor workers such as construction workers and sanitation workers, workers in new forms of employment such as takeout boys and express boys, and front-line epidemic prevention personnel face high-temperature "baking" tests, which is particularly eye-catching. The relevant policies and regulations on high-temperature labor protection have not been "updated" for many years, and have also attracted public attention. Experts said that in view of the new situation, new groups and new needs faced by high-temperature labor protection, high-temperature labor protection should keep pace with the times. (workers' daily, July 18) In midsummer, during the three volt weather, the high-temperature mode that continues to be opened everywhere not only "roasts" the body and spirit of many outdoor workers, but also "roasts" the efficiency of the high-temperature labor protection mechanism. When high temperature warnings are constantly issued, the "high temperature map" continues to expand, and heatstroke, "heat death" and other cases continue to appear, we are naturally more concerned about the protection of workers' rights and interests under high temperatures. With the rise of prices and the continuous emergence of new employment forms of workers, there are many new situations and problems related to high-temperature labor protection. The demand of workers is also higher and more diverse, and the social evaluation of the efficiency of high-temperature labor protection mechanism also has higher and higher standards. High temperature allowance belongs to the legal allowance, which is the wage compensation for the additional labor consumption of workers under high temperature conditions. It is an important part of the high temperature labor protection mechanism. However, the high-temperature allowance standard implemented in some places has not changed for many years, or even for a decade or two. Compared with rising prices, the "standing still" high-temperature allowance standard has been difficult to meet the needs of labor wage compensation in high-temperature environment. At present, a few places have raised the high-temperature allowance standard, which has played a positive exemplary role. Other places should also face up to the changes in prices, face up to the demands of workers, reasonably improve the high-temperature allowance standard, and establish a dynamic growth mechanism of the high-temperature allowance standard to ensure the institutional update of the high-temperature allowance standard. The payment period of high-temperature allowance also directly affects the protection of workers' high-temperature rights and interests. The payment time of high-temperature allowance in various regions is often concentrated in June to September, but in fact, the climatic conditions in various regions are very different, and accurate measures should be taken according to the specific situation. In May and October, some places will also have a daily maximum temperature of more than 35 degrees Celsius. According to the measures for the administration of heatstroke prevention and cooling measures, such weather is already a "high temperature day", which has the temperature conditions to pay high temperature allowances and implement heatstroke prevention and cooling measures. In recent years, extreme high temperature weather has occurred frequently in many places, and "stove" cities are increasing. All localities should rely on the improvement and upgrading of local laws and regulations to establish a mechanism to flexibly determine "high temperature day" and "high temperature month", so that the payment of high temperature allowance and high temperature labor protection are more in line with the actual situation, more comprehensive, more scientific and more humanized. A large number of workers in new employment forms, such as takeout boys and express boys, are outdoor workers, who need to rush through the streets under the high temperature. Accordingly, there are still fuzzy areas, blank areas and weak links in the high-temperature security mechanism for workers in new forms of employment. Some workers in new forms of employment have not received high-temperature subsidies in the legal sense and have not received strict high-temperature protection. In addition, the front-line epidemic prevention personnel are "fully armed" to engage in nucleic acid sampling and other work in the outdoor high-temperature environment, facing a high risk of heatstroke, which also poses new challenges to the high-temperature labor protection. In view of this, all relevant departments in all regions should continue to broaden the vision of high-temperature labor protection, strengthen the research on new situations, tailor-made high-temperature labor protection mechanism according to the different identity attributes of workers in the new employment form, and expand the scope of high-temperature labor protection. At the same time, we should take the high-temperature protection needs of front-line epidemic prevention personnel and other outdoor workers as the guide, innovate and develop high-temperature labor protection measures, and use responsibility and love to hold up a "sunshade" for outdoor workers. "The wise change with time, and the wise make with things", the labor environment is changing, the labor group is changing, the labor content is changing, and the demand for high-temperature protection is also changing. High temperature labor protection cannot be conformist, it should also keep pace with the times, and there should be an "upgraded version". Upgrading the high-temperature labor security mechanism requires not only static system adjustment, but also dynamic supervision and protection. The labor inspection department should strengthen the publicity of law popularization and law enforcement inspection, educate, supervise and force the employing units to enhance their self-discipline awareness, abide by the bottom line of the law, and fulfill the responsibility of high-temperature labor protection. Trade union organizations should give full play to their supervisory role as "workers' mothers' families", actively participate in the construction of high-temperature labor protection system and collective negotiation on high-temperature rights and interests protection, and support and guide workers to safeguard their rights in accordance with the law. Only by doing these jobs well can we implement the high-temperature labor protection system, achieve better high-temperature labor protection effects, and allow more workers to enjoy the "shade" of high-temperature labor protection.
