Abstract: Work-related injury prevention system is an institutional arrangement in the work-related injury insurance system that can promote employers to actively take measures to prevent the occurrence of work-related injuries. It undoubtedly has a filtering effect on the occurrence of work-related injury and is in a priority position in the work-related injury insurance system. China’s work-related injury prevention system has gone through development from scratch to being under neglect and to gradual improvement, but the work-related injury insurance system is now still in the stage of “emphasizing compensation” over prevention on the whole, and the prevention system is not paid enough attention to. And there are room for improvement in the mechanism of work-related injury insurance rate, work-related injury prevention expenses, work-related injury insurance treatment arrangement, relevant reward and punishment measures and allocation of rights and responsibilities of functional institutions. In the context of labor code compilation, to improve the work-related injury prevention system, it is necessary to adhere to the concept of giving priority to prevention, improve the rate mechanism of work-related injury insurance, optimize the relevant regulations on work-related injury prevention expenses and work-related injury insurance rates, formulate reasonable reward and punishment measures, and to strengthen joint efforts in work-related injury prevention, safety production and occupational disease prevention and control.

Key words: work-related injury insurance, work-related injury preventive, premium rate, work-related injury prevention expenses, employment compensation
