Rank: New forum user		I am going to China in the near future to audit a distribution warehouse and check / make sure that a guillotine machine complies with INDG282 - Safety at power-operated paper cutting guillotines. I have browsed the internet to see if there is any specific OSH laws in China, all i can find is:- C155 Occupational Safety and Health Convention, 1981 Ratified by China on 25:01:2007 Does anyone else know of any other OSH laws in China, preferably in English! Regards Paul

Rank: Super forum user		Paul Health and safety in China is not treated with the same regard as it is in the UK. I recall something like 14000 + work place deaths per annum. However, if anyone is found guilty of causing a work place death they are usually executed (that would focus a few directors in theis country!). It would be interesting to see how you get on with this Regards Mark

Rank: Super forum user		You could start by looking at :- 1) The IOSH internationa Network links to China:- http://www.iosh.co.uk/ne.../asia_pacific.aspx#China 2) the ILO-Safework Legislative texts on OSH "LEGOSH" website at:- http://www.ilo.org/legac...cis/legosh/chn/index.htm A possibly appropriate one appears to be, "Safety regulations for shearing machinery". (This standard covers the guarding and safe operation of industrial shears and cutting-off machines, including the electrical, pneumatic and hydraulic systems associated with them) http://www.ilo.org/dyn/c...;p_ctry=chn&p_lang=E
