BEIJING -- China's top legislature on Thursday adopted an amendment to the Law on Workplace Safety.

The amendment stipulates heavier penalties for workplace safety violations by production and business operation entities and their responsible persons.

It also adds provisions concerning the new situation of workplace safety in emerging industries, including the platform economy, as well as other prominent problems affecting workplace safety efforts.

Lawmakers approved the amendment at the closing meeting of a regular legislative session of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, which started in Beijing on Monday.

The latest amendment will come into force on Sept 1, 2021.

新华社北京6月10日电(记者刘夏村)10日闭幕的十三届全国人大常委会第二十九次会议对安全生产法进行了修改。新修改的安全生产法进一步加大对生产经营单位及其负责人安全生产违法行为的处罚力度。

  具体而言,新修改的安全生产法在现行规定的基础上,提高了对违法行为的罚款数额;增加生产经营单位被责令改正且受到罚款处罚,拒不改正的,监管部门可以按日连续处罚等规定。

  针对安全生产领域“屡禁不止、屡罚不改”等问题,新修改的安全生产法加大对违法行为恶劣的生产经营单位关闭力度,依法吊销有关证照,对主要负责人实施职业禁入。新修改的安全生产法还规定,负有安全生产监督管理职责的部门应当加强对生产经营单位行政处罚信息的及时归集、共享、应用和公开,对生产经营单位作出处罚决定后7个工作日内在监督管理部门公示系统予以公开曝光,强化对违法失信生产经营单位及其有关从业人员的社会监督,提高全社会安全生产诚信水平。

  此外,针对平台经济等新兴行业、领域出现的安全生产新情况,以及一些当前安全生产工作中面临的突出问题,新修改的安全生产法也增加了相关规定。
