Chapter 3594

Seeing that the scene cooled down again, Zhong Yuze felt depressed. He could only start calling names again: "Comrade Zheng Hong, please express your opinion."

Zheng Hong was the Minister of Propaganda of the Linshan Municipal Party Committee, a middle-aged woman in her fifties, very wealthy, looking a few years younger than her actual age. Zhong Yuze called her name, Zheng Hong said: "What kind of responsibility Shi Changsheng and others should bear, I think it should be according to relevant legal provisions. As for the compensation standard, didn't there be compensation in this regard before? Just follow the old rules."

As soon as Zheng Hong said this, everyone nodded and echoed. They liked such jargon the most, they didn't need to be responsible.

Su Xinghui asked: "What kind of rule was the old rule? When a miner dies due to work injury, how much is one person compensated?"

Zhong Yuze said: "This standard is not uniform, the standards of various coal mines are different. Generally speaking, it is thirty or forty thousand per person."

Su Xinghui said: "Only thirty or forty thousand for one person's death, this is too low, right? Is human life so worthless?"

Compared to the cheapness of a human life, what made Su Xinghui feel more unhappy was Zhong Yuze's tone. His tone was too flat, as if human life was a commodity that could be placed on a shelf and measured with money.

Talking about a human life in such a tone, no matter how high the price was, it could be considered a disregard for human life.

Zheng Hong said: "Thirty or forty thousand is not low. Two years ago, one human life was only compensated for ten or twenty thousand. Now it is considered quite high."

Other Standing Committee members also echoed that this standard was not low, and it had doubled compared to two years ago. According to their meaning, those mine owners were already considered to have a conscience.

Su Xinghui really couldn't listen anymore. After these Standing Committee members finished speaking, he said: "According to relevant national legal provisions, for death due to work injury, one can request payment of funeral expenses, pension, and one-time work-related death subsidy. The funeral expense standard is 6 months of the average monthly wage of employees in the unit's location in the previous year. The pension is 40% of the worker's monthly wage per month, and the one-time work-related death subsidy standard is 20 times the per capita disposable income of urban residents nationwide in the previous year."

The Standing Committee members looked at each other. Was the standard Su Xinghui said too high? Although they didn't know what this standard was specifically, they felt a bit scary when they heard this 20 times, and the pension was 40% of the worker's monthly wage every month. This was a burden for a lifetime.

Su Xinghui said again: "Last year, the average monthly wage of employees in the Linshan area was about 1200 yuan, and the per capita disposable income of urban residents nationwide last year was about 10500 yuan. Therefore, calculated according to this standard, the compensation that each miner who died due to work injury should receive is about 217,000 yuan, and the pension is issued separately every month."

The Standing Committee members all gasped. The number 217,000 was too unexpected for them. This time, more than sixty miners died in the mining disaster, so the total compensation was more than ten million. This number was indeed an astronomical figure.

Zheng Hong said fussily: "Compensate so much for each person? Then won't Fengling Coal Mine have to compensate more than ten million? How can they be willing to compensate so much?"

Su Xinghui said sternly: "This is the standard announced by the state. Does Minister Zheng have any opinion?"

Zheng Hong hurriedly shook her head. Su Xinghui brought out this big hat, she didn't dare to wear it on her head.

Su Xinghui said: "In my opinion, this standard is not high at all. This is a human life. Is human life so worthless?"

Zhong Yuze said: "We don't think this standard is too high, but we are afraid that Shi Changsheng will not be willing to compensate so much."

Su Xinghui said: "It's easy to say if he is unwilling to compensate. His coal mine has been sealed now, right? You can auction all his assets. I estimate that you can always gather this money, right?"

Everyone was silent. This Su Xinghui is really a ruthless person. This is to hollow out Shi Changsheng. Although Shi Changsheng can't take out more than ten million, he still has to pay pensions to more than sixty families for a lifetime. This is to raise these families for a lifetime.

Su Xinghui said unhurriedly: "Also, we must continue to investigate the reasons for this extra-large mining disaster. We must also investigate other problems of Shi Changsheng. We must investigate to the end. If there is a problem, we will never be lenient!"

Su Xinghui's tone made all the Standing Committee members feel a chill in their hearts. It seems that Shi Changsheng is finished. These Standing Committee members couldn't help but recall whether they had any economic dealings with Shi Changsheng. They were thinking about how to clear their relationship with Shi Changsheng so as not to set themselves on fire.

Su Xinghui said: "This compensation standard should be announced to society as soon as possible, especially to the families of the dead miners. They should be announced as soon as possible to give them a reassurance. People are dead, at least they must be given reasonable compensation, and the compensation needs to be in place as soon as possible. Within this month, all compensation must be paid to each family of the dead miner."

Su Xinghui scanned the venue again and asked: "Does anyone have any opinion on such handling? If you have any opinion, you can put it forward. If you have no opinion, it will be passed like this. Everyone will execute it according to this plan."

What opinion can everyone have? What Su Xinghui said was according to state regulations, and he came with the Shangfang Sword of the Provincial Party Committee, and he was the mayor of the city with the highest level among those present, fully presiding over the work of Linshan City. If anyone dared to put forward any opinion, wouldn't that be against the Provincial Party Committee? And it's not reasonable.

Therefore, Su Xinghui's proposal was passed like this, and a meeting summary was formed and printed to relevant departments for execution.

The content of this Standing Committee meeting spread like wildfire and soon became known to the whole city. Everyone was very surprised because the compensation standard for dead miners in this mining disaster was too high, several times higher than the original compensation standard, and the miners' families could also receive pensions every month.

The miners' families of course also heard the news. Before the Linshan Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government announced this news to the whole society, they learned the content of this Standing Committee meeting through other channels.

As soon as they heard this compensation standard, they were all very excited. They knew that this compensation standard was raised so much, of course, it was set by the new mayor Su Xinghui. In the past, I don't know how many mining disasters occurred in Linshan City, the highest compensation standard was only forty thousand per person, and there was no pension to receive every month.

Just because of this one thing, Su Xinghui's image in the hearts of these miners' families suddenly became tall. They also believed that Su Xinghui would definitely be able to make the decision for them, so they didn't make trouble at the gate of the municipal government anymore. They all waited for good news at home steadily.

This morning, Zhai Yingjie's family came to Linshan City. Weng Jingyao had already arranged a house for them, which was the staff housing of the municipal government. The house had already prepared simple furniture and electrical appliances, so they could live in it.
