Workers in surface mining face some of the highest-risk environments in Ontario, and proper training is essential for keeping people safe. Under R.R.O. 1990, Reg. 854: Mines and Mining Plants, all full-time and part-time production employees must complete the Surface Miner Common Core and the specialty modules for the equipment they will operate.
Our Surface Miner Common Core program helps workers understand the hazards, responsibilities, and safe work practices unique to surface mining operations. From equipment operation to ground control and communication, we help your team build the skills and confidence they need to work safely in demanding conditions. |
