It’s not “drowning”; it’s minerals and various chemicals inside. Sigh, companies must absolutely pay attention to safety—who knows if they are complying with safety regulations?
Basically it was the professional internship arranged by the school during the summer semesters of sophomore and junior years, but in reality it was of no use, and I didn’t expect it would even cost a life. When I was an undergraduate and went to the thermal power plant, I almost never went to the site because I was afraid of accidents; basically we just listened to explanations in the conference room.
Fuck, can this even be called drowning?
It’s terrifying, indicating that this factory usually doesn’t maintain safety properly.
The responsibility division is probably that the factory bears the larger share, and the school a smaller share. The internship insurance can also compensate a bit.
Every time I see such safety accidents, I’m glad I’m a mathematician (though not a pure mathematician) ![]()
wtf
Do you think it’s appropriate to say that?
Maybe my way of expressing it is off
but I don’t mean it as entertainment; I’m just noting that industrial-related fields have inherent risks, just like that previous power grid accident…
Therefore, safety in production must never be ignored; it is a matter of life and death.
According to the news, this workshop is highly automated, and normally there are almost no workers. Only maintenance personnel go up to the platform where the accident occurred; the metal is somewhat rusted but can still support it. This time, too many students went up at once and it broke directly.
The factory manager’s criminal liability and civil compensation cannot be avoided. However, it is clear that this kind of “visit and internship” is almost useless; the factory also lacks the capacity to receive visitors and has not prepared for it, merely coping with the school’s task. Under the indifferent, mutually accommodating approach of all parties, safety hazards arise.
It is unclear whether this platform is part of the company’s safety/inspection procedures. If it is not, then this is a very stark and painful lesson, and the safety system needs to be improved; if it is, then it represents a serious safety oversight by the company. After all, maintenance personnel also go up on this platform, so the safety of the maintenance staff needs to be considered in the safety processes, and consequently the platform that carries the maintenance personnel must be strictly inspected and maintained.
There is a process, and inspection and replacement records are kept at regular intervals. However, it may be merely a formality, perhaps because no one usually goes up, so it was ignored.
The junior-year centralized internship really should be canceled; it not only delays the summer camp, but also postpones the summer internship, starts at three credits, and if you want to take leave they threaten you with a failing grade.
