Safety education to solidify rail transport

Chinese railway operators are paying vital attention to bolstering safety awareness among all staff to safeguard rail transport. In Houmabei Locomotive Depot in Shanxi province, a three-dimensional system was set up to deploy the move by following China Railway Taiyuan Group's call for a "Year of Safety Awareness Education". The campaign includes situational briefings and case-based safety warnings, tiered precision training with skills competition and emergency drills, as well as stringent management. It wants to further diversify education methods to solidify employees' safety duties in fully ensuring safe and stable railway operations.
