Abstract: Coal mine safety standard is the basis of ensuring coal mine safety production, mine ecological environment safety and employees’ safety and health, preventing coal mine accidents and occupational hazards, and is also an important support for the implementation of coal mine safety production supervision and the establishment of safety development concept. In order to deeply understand the current situation of China’s coal mine safety standards, 853 current effective coal mine safety standards were collected and analyzed from the perspectives of standard level and nature, standard release year, standard for risk category, etc. The problems such as weak binding force of standards in current standard work were pointed out, and suggestions such as paying attention to overall planning and top-level design were proposed for reference to improve the coal mine safety standard work in China.
