Safety issues
At risk workers
If you are a mine operator you need to take extra steps to ensure the safety of contractors and inexperienced workers as these workers are over represented in fatalities and injuries.
General safety advice
Information on drugs and alcohol, and mental health
Health monitoring
Health monitoring means checking a worker to identify changes in their health status due to exposure to certain substances. Health monitoring must be supervised by a registered medical practitioner with experience in health monitoring.
Bullying and sexual harassment in the workplace
If you have been bullied or experienced inappropriate conduct, or sexual harassment, it is important to respond quickly. Who to report the conduct to, will depend on the conduct being reported.

Notifiying an incident
Bullying in the workplace is 'repeated, unreasonable behaviour directed towards a worker or group of workers that creates a risk to health and safety'. Go here to see if the Regulator’s mine safety unit may be the right agency, or the only agency, to contact.
