Safety management kit for small-scale mines, quarries and extractive industry operations
Completing the forms and checklists in this Small Mines Safety Management Kit does not ensure compliance with the work health and safety legislation. The toolkit is intended to be used as a starting point for quarry (mine) operators to develop risk assessments and appropriate documentation to be aligned with the appropriate sections and schedules within the work health and safety mines and petroleum sites legislation.
It provides some base considerations for the development of principal hazard management plans, principal controls plans, emergency management, contractor management, and other policies and procedures that are required for your safety management system.
However, it does not remove the obligation that the mine operator must always consult with workers, engage a competent person who has knowledge on the nature of the hazard and develop plans specific to the site.
