| الوصف: | State-of-the-art mine safety and competent emergency preparedness are essential elements of responsible, productive, healthy, and profitable underground mining.

The objectives are to train employees in occupational safety and to effectively lead, instruct and supervise them. A further objective is to improve their risk competence and prepare a health and safety document that includes hazard identification, risk assessment and associated measures for underground workplaces and procedures. The main risks in underground mining are presented in concise overviews that cover appropriate technical, organizational and individual safety measures. These topics are then explored in more detail in workplace inspection leaflets. Due to the international nature of the TUC's master's program, the literature and legislation cited on occupational safety and health is primarily from Anglo-Saxon sources, including publications of the International Labour Office (ILO) in Geneva. In addition, the first part contains footnotes with relevant German sub-legal regulations for the interested reader. The second and third parts of the book are a practical guide to underground emergency response, i.e. fire and explosion protection, mine rescue and self-rescue. The focus is on deep underground mines, particularly deep collieries. Here, methane production and spontaneous coal combustion, and the associated explosion hazards, are at the heart of the mine safety challenges. In addition, the work of the mine rescue brigade is subject to severe climatic conditions, which require both miners and rescuers to be physically fit and to have the appropriate physiological knowledge and safety rules. However, the priority today is to promote the ability of the workforce to rescue and evacuate themselves in the event of an emergency. This can be ... |
