Grand Hyatt Santiago Hotel, Kennedy Avenue 4601

 

The Chilean mining industry has evolved with regards to technologies, practices, organization, human capital and paradigms and this has had a positive impact in area of occupational health and safety and the focus has been on doing work well.

 

However, there are challenges to address such as the causes of fatal accidents, physical and geographical working conditions, facility designs, management systems suitable for each organization, innovation and human capital, and all this within the context of falling prices and ore grades, which forces us to do things differently while keeping in mind past lessons learnt.

 

SafeMining 2016 will be a technical forum during which participants will be able to share information, discuss and reflect on current practices in the area of occupation health and safety and how to achieve a preventive culture.

 

Objective:

 

  • Analyze management systems, types of organizations, strategies and regulations in force that are currently implemented in Occupational Health and Safety in different countries.
  • Learn about studies or methodological work on behaviors, practices and preventive culture for Occupational Health and Safety
  • Identify innovative technology and research studies applied to the relationship between the “worker” and “team” so as to render mining operations safer and a more healthy environment.
  • Set up the most effective programs that deal with occupational illnesses, chronic disease management and healthy bahaviors with regards to consumption of drugs and alcohol.
