Mining

In today’s ultra-competitive resource sector, mining companies face increasing pressures to improve global competitiveness, operate with sustainable development principals in mind and protect shareholders and community members. To meet these demands, mining companies must reduce costs, ensure the safety of the environment and their employees, meet regulatory and audit requirements and become a value-added partner to the governments and communities they work with.

 

A major requirement in today’s global mining business is the operating principal of Sustainable Development or SD. SD requires a 100% focus on managing risks that may pose a threat to the operation, the employees or the community. The ability to understand where your risks are and what is being done about them is vital to understanding your overall risk profile and improving operating margins.

 

Risks and hazards come in many formats at a mine site: confined spaces, electrical, legal compliance, audit, mechanical, chemical, regulatory compliance, pressure (air, water, gases), site security, noise, thermal, radiation, body mechanics, biological and the ever-present force of gravity. All of these must be understood and managed on a proactive basis to ensure zero harm and sustainable development. Whether you’re the site GM or a functional superintendent, understanding and managing risks across your business drives production, ensures the safety of your workforce and lowers your costs.
