(19)IntroductionThe report is aimed at the prevention of the major accident hazards involving dangerous substances, the accident, with a view to ensuring high levels of protection throughout the college in a consistent and effective manner. It is mainly out for informing the leaders of accident hazards exits in teaching buildings, dormitories, canteen, etc.The report contains many sections: Safety in the dormitory, teaching Building, and dining hall; Traffic safety, Food safety and Smoking in the university.This report is presented in the form of Questionnaire with data analysis, Interview, Recommendation, Survey, etc. According to these, it shows clearly what the superficial dangers and potential dangers are in this college and where are they. Based on these the leaders and all members could make progress in this aspect.Safety Standard of SchoolSafe schools are those where students, staff members and visitors feel safe and welcome and have the opportunity to learn, teach, work, and engage in activities without being threatened, intimidated, bullied, harassed, or made the victim of crime. Such schools provide an environment in which students are challenged academically, respected and supported socially and emotionally by peers and staff, held accountable for their actions, and are engaged in the life of the school. They also are places where staffs are respected and able to work without fear. Perhaps most importantly, a safe school is one where students are connected and feel a part of the school.Section 1: Fire safety in the university1.1 Fire safety in the teaching buildingQuestionnaireIntroduction: As the survey on potential fire hazard in T eaching Buildings, our group made this questionnaire for some information. We hope from analyzing what we have got from you, we can get some useful information and lead to your profit.A-strongly disagree B-disagree C-agree D-strongly agree1. Y our college has trainings on fire hazard regularly.□2. Y our college has trainings on First aid regularly.□3. Y our college has clear policies on managing T eaching Buildings.□4. Y our teacher informed you of fire hazard very often.□5. Y ou are desire to have training on self-rescue in a fire hazard.□6. Y ou are desire to have training on First-aid.□7. Y ou are satisfied with the current conditions on fire prevention of the college.□Data AnalysisThe chart below concerns about three questions: 1,3,7.According to the date above, 65%students admit that they have never heard this college had any training on fire hazard prevention. When asked whether they have great desire to have training on self-rescue in a fire hazard, students who do not want to possess a great portion. Though 30% of them have strong desire to have one, there are 15% strongly do not want to take one and 35% do not want to. That is 50% students have no desire to take training on fire hazard prevention and self-rescue.As for whether they satisfied with the current conditions on fire prevention of this college 55% students reflected that this college did not do enough on informing students of knowledge on fire hazard prevention and self-rescue. There are only two corridors in each T eaching building. Jams always happen , let alone if there is a fire.From this investigation, it shows the college should pay more attention to improve students’ awareness on fire h azard prevention. It is also necessary to make relevant lectures to publicize knowledge on fire prevention, self-rescue and first aid. At the same time, carry out some relevant training on students is desperately needed.InterviewWe interviewed the supervisors of these teaching buildings in our school. Each of them told us the problems with their buildings, for example, every day student would smoke there and throw the cigarette ends about, which is very dangerous, especially in these buildings whose desks and chairs are combustible. Besides, they said the wire may leakage of electricity just because of wires aging.Mrs. Yu, the supervisor of teaching building 3, recalled that once a teacher forgot to turn down the computer and it happened to be lightning and thundery. Unfortunately the computer burned out. She recommended that teachers need to turn down the computer system on time and there need to be someone to check these issues.Mr. Liu, the supervisor of teaching building 2, says there are ma ny computers and the wires need to carry overload power and that will make the wires heater and heater until melt the nonconductor of wires. If it continues, there will catch fire the minute it reaches the fire point.Finally, Mr. Wang, the supervisor of teaching building 7 which is mainly for students activities, added that most students would like to use colorful papers to cover the tube closely; if the light heat the paper reached the igniting point, the paper would get fire. What’s more, some students would take candles and matches to the classroom and play games with fire, like the competition of blowing candles, without care about this.SurveyDuring our investigation, many problems emerged as potential fire hazard in teaching buildings (TB).Potential hazard come from building supervisorsSince each building has one or two supervisors, they live in the buildings so that they can maintain it more convenient. Some of them cook meals with gas or high power appliances, which posses a great potential hazard, especially because they usually cook meals in the living room.Possible action: offer proper living environment for building supervisors, at the same time inform them of the rules of the college to avoid fire accident.Equipment for putting out fire:Ⅰ. Teaching Building 3, Teaching Building 4 and Teaching Building 5 ,each of them has six fire extinguishes and one dry powder fire extinguish on each floor，which is not enough. There should be at least two or three dry powder fire extinguish, which is more convenient and available all the time. Moreover, the positions of these extinguishes are not good. They are all fixed at each end of the floor. Once there is a fire it could waste a lot of time to fetch it.Possible action: Design a more convenient way to set extinguishes so that it is available immediately in case there is a fire. Add one or two dry powder fire extinguishes.Ⅱ. As for Teaching Building 2, Teaching Building 6 and Teaching Building 7, though there are many computer rooms, the management there has no special measures. Actually, there are only two dry powder fire extinguishes on each floor. Meanwhile, they also have the same problems as Teaching Building 3: the design and quantity of fire extinguishes. Staff who manages these compute rooms is not sufficient. With so many computers needed to be well maintained, supervising students use computers correctly in case the paralysis of electricity. Possible action: Equip enough staff to manage the computer rooms. Take special measures to prevent fire hazard.Usable or notThe fire extinguishes that use water have been rusted. Obviously, they have not been used for a long time, and do not know whether they could be used in the future? Another problem is the fire-alarming is locked and without any marks, which made it difficult for people to notice it.Possible action: Fire-alarming should be marked clearly and make sure it is available all the time.1.2 Fire safety in the dormitoryQuestionnaire of fire in the dormitory1. What kind of extinguishers are there in your dormitory building?A.Dry powderB.WaterC.Co2D.FoamE.BCFF.Do not notice2. If the fire was caused by electricity, which kind of extinguisher will youuse?A. Dry powderB.WaterC.Co2D.FoamE.BCFF.Do not know3. What kind of training about fire safety have you got?A.Fire preventionB.Simulated escapismC.None4. How many fire alarms in your floor?A.One or more in each floorB.Only one in the first floorC.None5.How many safety exits are available in your dormitory?A.OneB.Two or moreC.NoneData AnalysisThese two graphs below show the statistics of question number 2 and 3 of the questionnaire above.The two charts give information about students’ knowledge about fire and self-rescue methods when faced with fire. It can generally be stated that almost all of the students have paid no attention to safety trainings on fire. Only 6% students have attended fire prevention training, which means the other 94% have none, and the students even did not hear about the conception of simulated escapism. Some students are lack of the common sense about fire, which is caused by electricity . 40% students chose dry powder when dealing with the fire caused by electricity , which is appropriate. However, about 10% students preferred water ，which is not suitable for this case. Dry powder is the most noticeable choice. Next to it is CO2, which makes up to 33%. 11% students did not know which kind of fire extinguisher to use.In sum, students’ common sense about fire needs to be improved and to take more training on fire safety.94%SurveyIn order to have knowledge of fire safety in dormitory buildings, so we did an investigation focus on it.Through our investigation, there are six water extinguishers and two dry powder extinguishers set on each floor of the dormitory buildings. It is easy to obtain these extinguishers if fire accidents happened. However, although these extinguishers are all labeled with check lists which show the extinguishers are in good condition and available if in need, actually these lists were just treated as decorations and offered some false information, for instance, on the fourth floor of dormitory building NO.3 there is a water extinguisher that has no water gun, while its check list still showed the extinguisher could work in good order.Most students can not operate an extinguisher correctly and take no notice of these extinguishers around them. Through investigation we found that every water extinguisher was equipped with a fire alarm, but few students have noticed it. Moreover, every floor has two safety exits, but on the first floor one of its safety exits is always closed which leads to unavailable for evacuation.Recommendations: People who control the management of facilities should be responsible for their duty rather than do a surface or decorative job. It is necessary to open compulsory lectures to inform students of some essential knowledge of fire safety.1.3 Fire safety in the canteenQuestionnaire1. What kind of fuel do you use most frequently for cooking?A. GasB. ElectricityC. Coal2．How often do the safety facilities (like electrical circles, fire extinguisher) in the dining hall been examined?A. NeverB. SeldomC．OftenD. Frequently3. Do you think it necessary to arrange staff to work on night duty?A. NecessaryB. UnnecessaryC.I don’t care4. Will you try to be familiar with the emergency exit or escape routes actively?A. NeverB. a littleC. Quite muchD. Absolutely5. When encounter a fire in the dining hall, what is your first psychological response?A. Remain calmB. NervousC. Panic-stricken6. When the kitchen is on fire, which of the following will you use to deal with?A. WaterB. Fire extinguisherC. ClothD. Other thingsData Analysisity5%We interviewed 20 staffs who worked in the first canteen and the snack street in the first floor of the dining hall, as well as 30 students who had lunch in it. Here are the results which we get from the interview.30%of these who have been interviewed seldom saw the safety facilities been examine, furthermore, 50% claimed that they never saw it happen. The response to whether it necessary to arrange staffs to work on night duty in the dining hall turns out that 45% of those who been interviewed don't care about it while 40% thought that wouldn't be necessary.From the statistics, when facing a big fire, only 13.35% said they will use fire extinguisher. For the fact that a large part of the people said that they thought about use the fire extinguisher but their knowledge on that aspect is limited.For the reason that the participants are all staffs in the dining hall, and it's the manager that knows the fuel structure of the dining hall, we couldn't find him. It's disappointing that that we haven’t figured out the exact king of fuel for cooking. But according to a stuff, gas and electricity are dominant, however, these two are all easy to catch fire if haven't been pay fully attention.During the interviews, students are all very eager to answer the questions and respond actively. On the contrary, the staffs in the dining hall give us lower response and act as if we are going to uncover something bad about the canteen.Section 22.1 SmokingQuestionnaire1. What’s your gender?A. femaleB. male2. Are you a smoker?A. Y es.B. No.3. If you are a smoker, how many cigarettes do you smoke a day?A. More than 5.B. 5 cigarettes to 10 cigarettesC. More than 10.4. If you are a smoker, where do you smoke?A. In classroom.B. In dormitory.C. In toilet.D. Smoking areas.5. What do you think of setting up smoking areas?A. Necessary.B. UnnecessaryC. Never mind.6. Do you mind others smoking around you?A. Y es.B. NoData AnalysisThe graph below shows statistics of questions: 3,4,5.According to data, 70% boy students and 30% girls have been interviewed. 25% students say they smoke while 75% do not. Smokers who smoke less than 5 cigarettes per day are 46%; 34% of them smoke 5 cigarettes to 10 cigarettes, and 20% smoke more than 10 cigarettes a day. There are 35% students smoke in the classroom; 50% usually smoke in the dormitory; 10% student smoke in the toilet and 5% would smoke in no person area. Besides, 69% say it is necessary to set up nonsmoking area; 6% say it is unnecessary to set up nonsmoking area, and 25% do not mind.InterviewAfter interviewing many students from different departments, it shows that 18% students smoke. Most smokers are boys, and few girls do so. When asked whether they mind others smoking beside, most non-smokers say they do mind, and hate smokers smoking around them, while smokers do not care about it. The majority of students say where they smoking are uncertain. Students who get the knowledge of the harm of second hand smoking extremely demand that the college should take strict restriction on smoking in classroom. Many of them reflect students tend to throw the cigarette end on their will and never consider about whether it is safe or not, which is a great fire hazard.2.2 Traffic safety in the universityInterviewIn order to figure out students’ sense of security about traffic on campus, we made an interview towards students of our university.When we raised the question that “In our university, have you ever come across vehicles running fast which could not make a brake immediately when there are things or men in front of them ? ”, most of them have not experienced this occasion. While they mentioned that even at a rush moment , for example, when students go to class or back to dormitory from class, at these moments always exist several cars made very narrow road even more squeezed and dangerous.Moreover, as we can observe, there are many cars parked between teaching buildings, which made narrow passage (related to the huge amount of students to say is narrow) become cramped and limited. The interviewees hold the view that this situation can not only occupied their space when having PE classes, but also very dangerous if an emergency may happen, because it has made the emergency evacuation become more difficult to execute.A student named Qian Wenyao, a second year student who from Life Sciences Department of our university, she told us a problem she had experienced. She said, almost every time when back to dormitory from self-study in the evening she could meet some cars that open high beam. The high beam is very dazzling, and it leads to a temporary blindness that can be a big potential danger.SurveyDuring our investigation, many problems have emerged in traffic of our college. Parking ProblemSince there are many teachers who drive their own cars to school, and there is no garage for them to park. They drive to the space between teaching buildings, which is meant to be students’ walking space.Possible action: to build an underground garage for parking only and set strict rules to forbid driving between the teaching areas.Night DrivingCars are driven around school at night. Hence the lightening facilities are not so perfect that students can not see the car drawing near clearly. What is more, if drivers did not turn on the high beam, it is easy to cause an accident. Possible action: to improve the lightening facilities of the main roads, not only the teaching building areas, but the roads between dormitories and teaching buildings to dormitories.BikesA lot of students choose bikes as their transportation in campus sometimes. If a bike suddenly appeared in a crowd, it may hurt people and cause traffic disturbance.Possible action: to divide the road into two parts, one for pedestrians, another for bikes.2.3 Food safetyIntroduction：Bread is the staff of life. The quality of food affect directly to a person’s nutrition condition and physical health. The quality of hygiene in canteen is essential to the students’ health and the stability of the campus. Therefore, it is of great significant to conduct a research on food security of canteen.Questionnaire1. How often the food you eat is not fresh or deteriorated in the canteen?A. OftenB. SometimesC. HardlyD. Never2. Have you ever eat impurities in the canteen?A. OftenB. SometimesC. Never3. Which problems do you think exists with the food in the canteen (multiple choices)?A. The food is inadequate healthB. The food is not freshC. The food is inadequate nutritionD. the food is underdone4. Are you satisfied with the dining environment of the canteen?A. Very satisfiedB. SatisfiedC.Just so-soD. Not satisfied5. What do you think are the dining environment problems that exist in the canteen?A. Littering behavior is seriousB. Over crowdedC. The staff can not clean the eating desk and floor in timeD. The air is poor6. The frequency of washing hands before meals?A. AlwaysB. OftenC. OccasionallyD. Never7. Will you do other things such as internet or reading while eating?A. AlwaysB. OftenC. OccasionallyD. NeverData AnalysisThe charts below present statistics ofquestion 1 & 3.0.00%10.00%20.00%30.00%40.00%50.00%60.00%We sent 100 questionnaires to the students who live in the first floor in NO.3 dormitory . Through the answers we obtained 16.7% students often eat stale food and 66.7% students sometimes eat stale food in the canteen. No one is very satisfied with the dining environment of the canteen, and only 25% students feel satisfied with it. 25% students are not satisfied; meanwhile, 50% students think the dining environment is just so-so. 83.3% students think the air in the canteen is poor. Only 16.7% students will wash hands every time before meals and 41.6% students have a habit of doing others things while eating.It can generally be stated by the statistics that more than 90% students have eaten impurities while having meals in the canteen; only 8.4% students never had impurities. The impurities include hair, sand, fly and so on. It shows that the process of washing and cooking food is not strict. 75% students think that the food is not fresh and inadequate nutrition. Half students think that the food is half-baked. 41.6% students being questioned considered the food is not healthy enough.SurveyWe happened to see a trunk that carried food and we talked to the driver, he told us that every morning the food were mainly bought from the RouZhiChang, which located in Jinggangshang Road.Since we have no access to the kitchen of the first and second canteen, but according to our observation in the snack street, at least one refrigerator is available for each booth. The staff in the canteen wear the clean uniform with breathing mask covered their mouths. Although the table-ware was disinfected, the plates, chopsticks and remains will not be dealt with immediately. Furthermore, cash is still be used when buying food which sometimes fell into the container for food occasionally. Even if the staff who deliver the food wear plastic gloves, meanwhile, they touch the cash directly, which is very insanitation. Contrast with last year, the amount of consuming fast food box decrease as a result of renew of table-ware as well as the table-ware is more clean. Still, it is widely used.Recommendations: According to the questionnaire and survey, the food security in the canteen has improved a lot comparing to last few years, but there still exist lots of problems to be solved. For instance, cash should be forbidden when buying food, meal card ought to be used uniformly. The plates, chopsticks and remains should be dealt with immediately.For the students, they ought to form a good hygienic habit; it is a way of showing responsibilities for them. Like wash hands before meals, which is a basic one. While eating, do not do other things such as playing computer, reading or playing a mobile phone.What we have learnedDuring the process of doing the Safety Report, we have acquired the skills of conducting questionnaire, interview as well as survey. We have learnt persistence and positive attitudes are quite essential when encountered difficulties, such as, the failure of response from interviewees and have no access to area like where the food is prepared.Since the report is the task for the whole semester, to arrange the time reasonably and to work out a plan are of great importance. We made it. In order to try our best to do the report well, we have dug out the advantages of each group member. Finally, the most impressive experience we have obtained is that how to cooperate with group members effectively. In brief, it is indeed worth doing theSafety Report since it is so practical.。
