6、 The Holiday Activity House for Teenagers

In an attempt to ensure children of a safe and meaningful holiday, the community established a holiday activity house for teenagers. The activity house has made schedules for every holiday, allowing children to sign up for activities according to their own interests.

Adults 25-64 years: Workplace Safety Now, Xinjiekou Community has 5 construction companies, 513 production and operation businesses of different kinds, and 1088 “six minor” businesses. Monitoring data of medical injury showed that work place injury in Xinjiekou is featured by more injuries suffered by commerce/service providers. Among others, injuries are mainly caused by the following facts: staffers violate operational procedures and enterprises fail to recruit qualified construction companies according to relevant regulations. In some cases, staff members fall short of safety skills and onsite management remains loosening. 1) Management on Operators by Type and Scale Operators are divided into A, B and C three types. Type A operators are under prioritized supervision, including 12 dangerous chemical-related businesses and construction sites. Type B operators fall under lesser supervision, including altogether 122 shopping malls, markets, cultural and entertainment establishments, sports venues, star-rated hotels and catering facilities. Type C operators are under general supervision, including 997 “six minor” units, such as cookshops, small markets and small hotels, etc. Standing book will be established for operators by industry for a dynamic management. Type A operators shall be checked every month while Type B ones shall be reviewed every two months. Type C operators will be check on a monthly basis by community service substation. Once identified, safety loopholes shall be reported immediately. Work Safety Office shall be responsible for coordinating functional departments in launching loophole check. 2) Launch Safety Loophole Check on Major Places of Different Types A day-to-day supervision shall be carried out on dangerous chemical-related units, crowded places, narrow workplaces, production and operation businesses in buildings, and construction operators. Basic information book shall be established for production businesses which are helped to establish and modernize the system of work safety responsibility, emergency plan and other safety systems. When it comes to safety management, construction units implement construction certificate, safety qualification management, qualification certificate management of special operation workers, improve safety warning signs at the construction site and safety protection measures of dangerous sections, measures for safety management at the construction site and for workers’ safety protection. 3) Carry out Daily Loophole Check on “Six Minor” Businesses Xinjiekou Community Office has established two-tier supervision network – Community Office and Neighborhood Committee – in 21 neighborhood committees to solidify supervision on 1088 “six minor” businesses according to law. The network also assists functional departments in launching field investigation on “six minor” places, establishing working ledger and collecting such information as the name, person-in-charge and contact information of the business premises. The neighborhood

4 committees investigate on “six minor” places every month mainly to check: whether the staff quarters use coal and electric blanket (bar) for warming; the utilization of fire equipment; whether the fire fighting access is smooth; whether there are precautionary measures and contingency plans; the prevalence of work license after training and certificate for special type of work.

1、、、 Fire Prevention Plan Xinjiekou Community is home to many bungalows, architectures built in the 1950s and 1960s and many crowded places such as shopping malls, markets, hotels and catering facilities. The fire protection infrastructure remains weak. In the Community, there are 6 units under municipal level fire protection, 96 units under district level fire protection, making it a highly risky area prone to fire disasters. Circuit represents the overarching cause of fire disaster and time interval from 18:00 to 24:00 is the highly risky time and the likelihood for major fire disasters lies in the time interval from 22:00 to 04:00.

1）））Voluntary Fire Brigade:

Voluntary fire brigade composed of fire fighters with professional knowledge, fire trucks and corresponding fire equipment safeguards the life and property safety of community residents through such forms as daily patrol, receiving and responding to alarms, independent fire extinguishment, reinforcing extinguishment, organizing fire protection drills among residents, assisting in safety publicity campaign.

2））） Take Preventive Measures and Launch Loophole Check Campaign:

Units under prioritized supervision are divided into 12 groups for mutual check and based on this, for spot check. In the mean time, each of the units is required to carefully look for loopholes, and implement fire protection safety responsibility system step by step. The fire protection safety committee of Xinjiekou Community has guided the fire protection office to check more than 1,900 units, discovered and eliminated over 1,300 fire hazards and 1,200 of which have been addressed.

3））） Fire Fighting Training and Drill:

The Community Office has organized units under prioritized supervision, safety principal, fire safety administrators, community residents in carrying forward multi-tiered fire fighting training to explain fire fighting knowledge such as how to use fire alarming, how to escape from fire, and knowledge about self and mutual help, and emergency response.

It is mainly responsible for the work of fire alarms, fire extinguishment, safety trainings and drills, etc. 3. Home Safety Plan As an old city neighborhood, the living area of bungalows account for three fifth of total residences, with many potential safety hazards such as houses neglected and in disrepair for years, damaged pipes and wires, narrow pathways and deficiency in safety facilities. There are 13 dilapidated buildings vulnerable to harsh elements like storms and natural disasters like earthquakes. Twenty of all the hutong pathways are too narrow for firefighter vehicles to go though.
