MINE FATALITY – On March 1, 2023, a miner died when the bulldozer he was operating went over an embankment, ejecting him from the operator’s cab.
Best Practices:
Operators should train miners to:
• Wear a seat belt while operating mobile equipment.
• Examine ground conditions before beginning work in an area and as ground conditions warrant during the work shift.
• Operate equipment safely, and to identify and report hazards.
• Be aware of their position relative to edges of roadways and benches.
Miners and mine operators can find safety and health information on MSHA.gov.
