June 2026 marks the nation’s 25th “Safety Production Month.” To thoroughly implement the Group’s directives and reinforce enterprises’ principal responsibility, Xinhong Heavy Industry has aligned its efforts with the theme “Everyone Talks Safety, Everyone Knows How to Respond to Emergencies—Identifying and Rectifying Risks and Hidden Dangers,” adopting a three-pronged approach of public education, hazard identification, and emergency‑response drills. The company has launched a series of diverse, practical, and action‑oriented initiatives, comprehensively strengthening its safety management foundation and fostering a robust safety‑culture environment. 

Top-level design takes the lead, sounding the “call to arms.”

On May 31, the company’s general manager chaired a special kickoff meeting for Safety Month, defining the structure and responsibilities of the leading group and approving the overall activity plan. The meeting further refined and allocated tasks such as awareness‑raising, hazard identification, emergency drills, and competitions, enforcing rigorous standards and stringent requirements at all levels to solidify the organizational foundation for the in-depth implementation of Safety Month activities.

Multi‑dimensional publicity builds momentum and keeps the “mental alertness” high.

To dispel complacency, the Safety and Environmental Protection Department launched a comprehensive, multi‑faceted awareness campaign across the entire plant site starting June 1. In key areas such as production floors, passageways, and storage yards, the department has intensified communication by displaying thematic banners and updating informational posters, highlighting job‑specific procedures, high‑risk work safety warnings, and essential emergency preparedness knowledge, ensuring that the principle of “safety first” is firmly embedded in employees’ sight, minds, and hearts.

Layered, precision‑based training to fortify the “spiritual calcium”

The company adheres to a “targeted training” approach, delivering tiered training programs for frontline workers, equipment operators, subcontracted construction personnel, and grassroots managers. The curriculum is closely aligned with the characteristics of the shipbuilding and repair industry, providing in-depth explanations of relevant regulations and standards, high‑risk work procedures (such as lifting, hot work, and working at height), methods for identifying potential hazards, and case studies of typical accidents, thereby effectively enhancing all employees’ ability to identify risks and mitigate associated hazards.

Thoroughly identify hidden hazards and blind spots, and weave a robust “safety net.”

Adhering to the principle of “prevention first,” the Safety and Environmental Protection Department is leading comprehensive, all‑encompassing inspections that leave no blind spots. The special campaign focuses on critical areas such as lifting and hoisting operations, electrical wiring, fire‑fighting facilities, and employee conduct, implementing closed‑loop management for identified issues to eliminate “three violations” at their source and ensure that existing hazards are systematically cleared.

Practical drills strengthen the foundation and forge “emergency response capabilities.”

In response to the high fire risk associated with ship maintenance, on June 19, the company organized a specialized drill for volunteer firefighters and crew members, simulating a shipboard fire and explosion. The exercise faithfully replicated real‑world conditions, covering the entire sequence—from alarm activation and evacuation to perimeter security, reconnaissance, and initial firefighting. Each phase was seamlessly coordinated, with highly efficient response, thereby not only validating the scientific soundness of the emergency plan but also significantly enhancing the emergency team’s rapid response and collaborative operational capabilities.

Promoting learning through competition and assessing effectiveness, thereby fostering intrinsic motivation.

On June 24, the Safety and Environmental Protection Department organized a safety knowledge competition covering relevant laws and regulations, operational procedures, emergency response protocols, and management standards. All employees participated enthusiastically, using the competition to reinforce learning and applying what they had learned in practice, thereby strengthening their theoretical foundation in safety and showcasing XinHong’s commitment to rigor, pragmatism, and a proactive, upward‑looking spirit.

Maintaining sustained momentum without letup, we are advancing into a new phase of normalized and long-term effectiveness.

Safe production is an ongoing endeavor. Taking this Safety Month as an opportunity, Xinhong Heavy Industry will adhere to the principle of “using the month to drive year‑long progress” and prioritize four long‑term initiatives: First, we will refine the grassroots self‑inspection mechanism, strengthen the accountability of workshop‑level inspection teams, and rigorously prevent a resurgence of violations and potential hazards. Second, we will strictly enforce the pre‑shift education and awareness system, ensuring that daily morning briefings on risk identification and safety instruction are fully implemented to achieve comprehensive safety training coverage. Third, we will intensify routine emergency preparedness drills, conduct regular fire‑fighting exercises, and continuously reinforce our team’s practical response capabilities. Fourth, we will establish a sustainable safety management framework, discard short‑term, ad‑hoc approaches, integrate safety into everyday operations, and firmly anchor the responsibility chain across all employees, thereby providing a robust safety safeguard for the company’s high‑quality development.
