Hi ALL,

About two years ago i have joined a local mining company (phosphate firtilizers) as HSE Manager, after spending about 11 years in drilling. Mining is not my original background and i am experiencing some difficulties. The mining company utilizes pretty much standard package of HSE MS (old Soviet rules and regulations, slightly changed to modern requirements). Apart from handling compliance part of my job, i would like to put together a good solid HSE Management System with everything: training, auditing and etc. I am having dificulty in materials, regulations and standards, sample documents in Mining. If you guys have any knowledge in mining(surface, open pit) safety please give me some hint where to get some usefull materials.

Regards
Ado

Adi - have you considered using the OHSAS18001 model. This follows exactly the same format as ISO9001 (Quality Management) and ISO14001 (Environmental Mangement) which brings advantages in following similar management processes across a range of disciplines.

Many thanks Richard,

Yes, i have reviwed OHSAS 18001 model, which helps, curently i am looking for more of a technical documentation. Safe methods of working with heavy trucks, tractors and buldosers etc. I am curently working on a permit to work system for mining and general safety matters, for this i am basically using the ones we have used in Drilling, because of its simplicity and user firendly.
