Unifying production &
safety goals for long-term
sustainability
Increase production & reduce costs
As the mining industry prospers, meeting increasing
production demands without losing focus on safety is a
priority to ensure sustainability of your site. Achieving this
long-term sustainability increases production and reduces
costs in the long-run.
Put safety considerations at the forefront of
every operation
To build sustainability, constructing a culture of safety is
challenging, but essential. Altering values and attitudes of an
organisation, or even a site, takes commitment, resources
and monitoring – but it is possible, and puts the focus on
safety for every operation.
Move from compliance to enthusiastic participation
in safety
Combining effective safety training with processes that have
embedded safety initiatives will ensure both awareness
of safety policies and an understanding of its importance,
empowering your organisation to move from compliance to a
safety culture of enthusiastic participation.
Hear case studies on:
1. Beginning the process of building a culture of safety
2. Tools to manage an established culture of safety

• A practical understanding of the elements that make up the
relationship between increasing production and achieving safety
goals
• The short and long-term implications of combining production
with safety goals
• Strategies to infuse safety processes into every section of
operation in a manner that improves performances and increases
productivity

During this interactive workshop you will take away:
• Engaging in historical case studies and the far-reaching
implications that can arise across the mine site
• Tools to identify and utilise crucial data sources to ensure early
awareness of potential issues
• How to develop a Targeted Action Response Plan for an individual
mine site
• How to proactively manage catastrophes to minimise damage and
protect onsite assets
• An understanding of the judicial process of overcoming the effects
of a natural disaster.
