Research On Local Government’s Production Safety Accident Management

Since the implementation of the Reform and Opening-up policy in1978, the situation of the production safety became worse during the economic reform and continuous development of the economy and society, which has been paid more and more attention to by the people of all walks in our country. Although the ability of local government on production safety management has improved, the credibility of the government is strongly questioned by the public opinion. Because there are still a lot of production safety accidents occuring every year which cause great loss to the national and people’s property, made serious damage to the life safety and health of the people, and result in social panic in a certain extent.This paper upholds the objective of accumulating accident management experience for the local government, promoting separating functions on accident management between the party and the government, between the government and the enterprise, promoting production safety accident management to the rule of law, carrying out research from the perspective of the local government production safety accident management, and it takes the methodology of empirical analysis combining with literature research to infer the whole body; it uses the system safety theory based on system theory and cybernetics, the theory on periodic change of intelligence, strength and emotion, the theory of evil human nature and the hypothesis of the economic man with limited rationality, the theory of public choice; moreover it integrates the knowledge of various disciplines to analyze and generalize five questions of local government on accident management at present.(1)It cannot correctly report accident situations and media misleads the public;(2)The system of safety laws isn’t rigorous,and it is unscientific;(3)Legal status, responsibility and authority of accident investigation group isn’t clear;(4)The system and the mechanism investigating accident responsibility is lack of validity and reliability;(5)The public program and the mechanism of supervision and error correction has not been set up. And the deep causes of the problem are:the influence of the ingrained traditional ideological politics and the currently unscientific system and mechanism.This paper argues that the main countermeasures to solve the problem on production safety accident management:We must catch hold of innate character of free competition, fairness and justice of the market economy, reveal the nature of the government action under the market economy, avoid politicizing all the security accidents management in order to realize democracy and constitutional politics and ruling of law, to seek a breakthrough on the reform of economic system, political system and the administrative system; investigate in the institutional design and legal establishment, reform, abolishment etc. and carry out strict management on judicial practice, moreover, learn from the advanced experience of the developed countries on the management of production safety accidents to fully share all the achievements of democracy, the ruling of law, constitutional politics and public policy. Limit power, abandon the concept of "universal government" and "universal political parties", get rid of bureaucratic blundering atmosphere; construct small and limited government, enhance the self-regulating ability to guarantee social harmony and stability, promote local government production safety accident management transforming into the administration according to law; promote social security intermediary organizations growing and developing to gradually replace the government for security management and security planning and separate government from enterprises; innovate the party and government administration to split one from the other, transform government functions to nurture the citizen society, standardize the responsibility program, complete social relief program. Improve the overall quality of citizens, enhance citizens’ awareness of their rights, increase the representatives’ability to perform their duties, improve civil servants’abilities.
