A FIELD ALERT - The CORESafety - Safety and Health Management System-

Health & Safety - Mining, Environmental, & Cybersecurity

Date posted: 05/15/15

The CORESafety Safety and Health Management System (SHMS) involves 20 modules with suggested timelines for completion. The modules and timelines were developed by mine safety professionals specifically for U.S. mining as a pathway to achieve zero fatalities and a 50 per cent reduction in the injury rate within five years. While CORESafety provides a common roadmap and a common language to achieve, it does not specify the details of each company system. Rather, company systems should be designed to be functionally equivalent to the CORESafety HSMS taking into consideration each companys unique operations, management structure and culture.
