We hope that you are having a great start to the new year.
If you are part of the leadership of a mining company, you no doubt have already thought about how to meet the requirements of the Mine Safety and Health Administration, and you have employees constantly being taught by your dedicated trainer in order to meet those operating initiatives.
One of the most vital components of this training is in powered hauling. It can be one area where accidents can be prevalent without the right type of guidance for employees, something of which MSHA is well aware. In fact, MSHA has made powered haulage a top priority for training in order to prevent more accidents at American surface mines.
We’re sharing some valuable advice from the agency on the main components of any training for employees who operate powered haulage, including elements of seat belt usage, driving mobile equipment and the safe use of conveyors. We also have direct links to the haulage course that we offer in order for you to complete your MSHA requirements.
Take a look at what’s available to help you meet these crucial certifications, and continue to have a safe and prosperous 2021.
