Lujiang County is a mining county with nearly 8,000 workers in the front line of mines who directly or indirectly come into contact with dust. Due to lax enterprise occupational health management system, lack of awareness, prevention of occupational hazards, and workers' mobility and poor self-protection awareness, occupational contraindications have been discovered in recent years.

Employers must be required to organize health checkups in accordance with relevant regulations for employees who are exposed to various occupational hazards, and establish occupational health surveillance files for workers.

Miners who had professional taboos on medical examinations were issued “transferring notices” and followed up and supervised in a timely manner to effectively eliminate frontline miners.
