In early April, Yang Dongliang, the director of the State Administration of Work Safety, visited the Hongliulin Coal Mine under the Shaxu Coal Chemical Group to conduct an inspection and provide guidance on safety production. From the photos released in the report, it was clear that both the inspection team and the miners were wearing safety helmets, each clearly marked—some with names, others with numbers. This simple yet effective measure stood out as a practical approach to ensuring accountability and visibility.
To me, even something as small as a helmet can hold great significance. I recall a mining accident in the past where the number of people trapped underground was constantly changing. At the time, the company couldn't even confirm how many workers were actually underground. It was shocking that such a basic detail was unclear. Later, I came across a case where a mine improved safety by setting up a notice board at the entrance. Each worker had a small card with their name or number, which they would pick up before entering the mine and return when exiting. This system allowed for real-time tracking of who was down the shaft. I thought it was a smart and cost-effective solution.
Today, seeing the photo of Yang’s visit to the mine, I was impressed. Instead of using small cards, they simply labeled each miner's helmet with a name or number. Even the officials from the State Administration were not exempt. Every person put on their own helmet, making the process more efficient than the previous method. As you stand in the locker room, you can instantly see who is underground and how many are there. It’s direct, simple, and highly effective.
Some problems aren’t as complicated as they seem. The key is to think creatively and find practical solutions. The idea of marking helmets may seem minor compared to traditional methods like registration books, but it's far more efficient. I remember a story about a U.S. soap company that spent over one million dollars to solve the issue of empty boxes on the production line. They used experts, computers, sensors, and even robots. Meanwhile, a small Chinese factory faced the same problem and solved it in just two days by buying an old fan from a second-hand market. The fan blew away any empty boxes, solving the problem cheaply and quickly.
I really want to emphasize this: instead of trying to figure out how to pass inspections, focus on improving safety management. Sometimes, the simplest ideas can lead to the most effective solutions. In the past, those who took the time to observe and learn from others often found better ways to solve problems, even if it meant taking a different path.
