How to deal with fire hazards? Emergency Management Department responds to netizens on People's Daily Online
2024-08-06
Fire safety is of utmost importance and cannot be compromised. In recent years, with the rapid development of urbanization, the risk of fire has been increasing, and "small hidden dangers" often lead to "major accidents". On the "Leadership Message Board" of People's Daily Online, the topic of fire safety has always been highly concerned by netizens. Recently, the Emergency Management Department has responded to some suggestions and opinions left by netizens, jointly creating a good atmosphere of "everyone talks about safety and everyone knows how to respond to emergencies". It is recommended to strengthen the promotion of the fire hazard of mobile phone chargers around us. The phenomenon of "unplugging the phone after charging, while the charger is still plugged into the power source for a long time" is everywhere, but little do we know that this situation may cause fires. Not long ago, some netizens paid attention to this issue and left a message on the "Leadership Message Board" of People's Daily Online, stating that there have been several typical cases of fires caused by not unplugging chargers, but there are still many people who are not aware of the seriousness of this situation. Therefore, it is recommended that the Emergency Management Department strengthen publicity to enhance public safety awareness. It is understood that after connecting the charger to the socket, even if the phone is not charged, it is still in working condition. Long term non unplugging of the charger will accelerate its aging process, thereby increasing the possibility of short circuits and voltage breakdown of the charger. The Emergency Management Department replied that it is necessary and targeted to strengthen the promotion of the fire hazards of mobile phone chargers. Fire departments at all levels attach great importance to this and adopt various forms to continuously increase publicity and education efforts. They actively carry out fire science popularization activities, widely promote electricity safety knowledge to the society, especially fire safety knowledge for mobile phone charging, guide the public to enhance fire safety awareness, and cultivate good electricity habits. In the near future, we will also produce warning education videos on typical cases of electrical fires, and widely promote them through various media and publicity platforms. It is recommended to standardize the management of electric bicycles in residential areas as soon as possible. In recent years, the number of fires caused by electric bicycles has increased sharply, posing a serious threat to the safety of people's lives and property. The first phase of the residential area we currently live in has a ramp specifically for entering the storage room. Although the second phase does not have it, many people still use elevators to push their electric bicycles upstairs for charging. When not charging, they also like to park their electric bicycles in the lobby downstairs Some netizens commented that property management can only play a promotional role in addressing the issue of electric bicycles being parked or charged in residential areas, treating the symptoms rather than the root cause. The netizen expressed the hope that the country can formulate corresponding measures to regulate the parking and charging of electric bicycles as soon as possible. According to Article 37 of the Regulations on Fire Safety Management of High rise Civil Buildings (Order No. 5 of the Ministry of Emergency Management), it is prohibited to park or charge electric bicycles in public lobbies, evacuation corridors, stairwells, and safety exits of high-rise civil buildings. We have always attached great importance to the fire safety management of electric bicycles, guided various regions to actively promote the installation of intelligent prevention systems for electric bicycles entering elevators, encouraged relevant departments to increase the planning and construction of centralized parking areas and charging facilities for electric bicycles, and formulated the "Seven Measures for Preventing Electric Bicycle Shed Fire Accidents" The Ministry of Emergency Management stated that in addition to the above measures, special actions such as fire safety have been deployed in various regions, focusing on investigating and punishing illegal and irregular behaviors such as electric bicycles entering buildings and households, charging overhead lines, and occupying and blocking evacuation routes and safety exits. It also urged various regions to combine the standardized management of fire safety networks, mobilize communities, neighborhood committees, and property management units to clean up and dissuade illegal parking and charging of electric bicycles. It is recommended to strengthen the supervision of fire protection facility operators. The fire control room is the "central brain" of unit fire protection facilities, and the ability level of fire protection facility operators determines the efficiency of maintenance operations and initial fire emergency response of unit fire protection facilities. A netizen left a message saying that he is an ordinary operator of fire protection facilities, and his usual job is to check in at the fire control room. Therefore, he observed some chaos in the industry - there are many outsourcing situations and loose management in this industry. Some units may use unlicensed or unskilled personnel to work, or hang the certificates of former fire protection facility operators on their employee walls. In this regard, he hopes that relevant departments can strengthen the supervision of fire protection facility operators and eliminate industry chaos. In response to this situation, the Emergency Management Department stated that according to the "Maintenance and Management of Building Fire Protection Facilities" (GB25201-2010), the fire control room should implement a 24-hour dual person duty system. According to the Notice of the Fire Rescue Bureau on Implementing the National Vocational Skills Standards for Fire Facility Operators (Emergency Fire [2019] No. 154), the on duty operators in the fire control room should hold the corresponding professional level of building (structure) firefighter certificate or fire facility operator certificate. Next, we will urge fire rescue agencies in various regions to strengthen inspections on the certification and skill level of on duty operators in social units' fire control rooms. We will also supervise and rectify phenomena such as unskilled operation of fire protection facilities and issuing certificates without training by training institutions in accordance with the law The Emergency Management Department stated.
