Emergency Management Planning & Response to Ensure the Safety of your Workers and Mine Site Resilience

Emergency preparedness is crucial for professionals working in the mining industry. Ensuring that you and your team can successfully respond to an emergency on the mine site is important for both the safety of your workers, as well as the continuity of the business.

What makes Mine Rescue & Emergency Management 2012 stand out from other emergency management events?

  • A: We have proactive and responsive case studies presented by some of Australia’s top mining companies
  • B: We have covered crucial topic areas such as the new harmonisation laws and what it will mean for you, your site, and your training program
  • C: We have a range of interactive modules so that you can maximise your time off the mine site
  • D: We have presentations by seasoned professionals who have been involved in mine accidents both in Australia and overseas

Over the past year, large scale mine rescues such as Pike River, San Jose, and Gleision Colliery have highlighted the importance of having a team that is sufficiently trained and know how to respond if and when an emergency hits your site.

Mine Rescue & Emergency Management 2012 will examine both proactive and reactive emergency measures and is a ‘must attend’ for anyone who wants to improve current emergency procedures, as well as those who want to benchmark themselves against other Australian mining companies.

Through vigorous training sessions, mock scenarios and desktop exercises you can help to build your employees’ confidence and their skill set to help them respond to an emergency onsite.

Why Attend Mine Rescue & Emergency Management 2012?

We’ve listened to your feedback from our previous events, and we’re evolving our conference format and agenda to deliver on what you’ve asked us for. This year you have asked us to focus on:

  • How the Harmonisation Bill will effect emergency preparedness, expected levels of cover, and training standards
  • Decision making on mine re-entry
  • Contingency planning with your emergency response team
  • Responding to a crisis on your mine site

Experienced in the sphere of Mine Rescue & Emergency Management, Mining IQ’s 2012 Brisbane event will draw together a range of mining companies, mining contractors, and emergency services and solution providers to create a rich networking experience.
