Hainan held a provincial executive meeting on Oct. 10 to approve measures
boosting vocational talent and port safety. The province will implement a
five-year "skills free-trade port" action to expand international cooperation,
strengthen skills competitions and high‑skilled talent awards, enhance youth
skills education, and better align industry demand, training, assessment and
employment services. The meeting also ordered end-to-end safety supervision for
hazardous goods and port operations: tighter oversight of hazardous chemicals, a
cross‑department reporting mechanism for suspected violations, expanded social
supervision of production safety and upgrades to port safety regulation and
enforcement.
