Analyses of Critical Success Factors and Barriers to the Implementation of Indonesian Mining Safety Management System: Case Study of a Nickel Mine & Processing Company

A very high level of work risk makes the implementation of an occupational health and safety management system imperative, particularly for mining businesses. Because it has an impact on the business's performance, sustainability, and reputation, mining safety is an issue of critical importance. The Republic of Indonesia's government has enacted regulations requiring the Mineral and Coal Mining Safety Management System (SMKP MINERBA) to be applied, as detailed in MEMR Regulation No. 26 of 2018 and its derivatives, through the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR). The implementation of SMKP MINERBA, however, is still insufficient as shown by the rise in mining accidents that result in harm, lost productivity, and even fatalities. The study came to the conclusion that the existing CSFs could be categorized using the seven factors: SMKP good governance; strong organizational safety culture; organizing and resource availability; Specific - Measurable - Attainable - Relevant - Time Bound (SMART) planning and periodic monitoring; management commitment and strategy; effective Occupational Health & Industrial Hygiene (OH-IH) management; and compliance and safety leadership. In the meantime, the barriers may be classified as follows: low SMKP management commitment, inadequate safety leadership, and poor OHS strategy and execution. Rankings of CSFs and Barriers were also established using the Relative Importance Index (RII), and the ratings might be used by Management to enhance the organization further. As a consequence, the findings of this study and the solutions offered are beneficial to the industry since they may increase practitioners' knowledge and support them in expanding their acceptance in organizations

An assessment of the media's portrayal of murders at Chinese mines

Mining-related crime in China has been understudied, although such cases have been repeatedly reported. These cases are also referred to as ‘Blind Shaft murders’, a phrase associating these murders with a movie in which co-workers were killed, and the deaths made to look like an accident as a means of extorting compensation from the mine owner to keep the incident quiet. This study is the first known study to review how Chinese newspapers have covered such murders and the blame that ensued. It finds that the media adopted a suspect-centred reporting style: the media overemphasized the suspects’ past private lives, and it depicted them as being from poor mountainous areas and portrayed them as leading a deviant lifestyle. In contrast, in the media reporting for the victims, only cases of mentally disabled or otherwise newsworthy victims attracted much media attention. An examination of the circumstances surrounding the murders revealed that the murders were driven by the opportunities provided by a combination of weak safety regulations, weak enforcement, and the actors’ opportunistic behaviour. The media meanwhile tended to frame the cause of such murders as individual manifestations of the evils of human nature and was less likely to point to the loopholes provided by the mining safety management system. This study further discusses the reasons for the media's frame choices and their possible effects on society and policymaking. It maintains that unlike the situation in which the demise of canaries in a coalmine would prompt miners to flee from their mining shafts, the media framing of such murders has so far failed to similarly act as a precursor for policy change.

Risk management is a process of managing risk so the organization can achieve its goals. A strong fundamental is necessary for understanding the concept of risk management before it is implemented. This study will analyze mining safety risk management at PT HPU site XYZ based on the Mineral and Coal Mine Safety Management System (SMKP Minerba). This research is a qualitative descriptive study . Data retrieval is done through in-depth interviews and document review (documentation) with key informants, namely, 4 Project Managers, 14 Superintendents, and 18 Foreman.The results of the interviews were analyzed by its content and compared to PT HPU documents based on Mineral and Coal Mining Safety Management System (SMKP Minerba) and also other risk management standards (ISO 31000: 2009, AS / NZS 4360: 2004, and ISO 45001: 2018) for additional reference. Based on content analysis, it was found that the supervisor's interpretation of PT HPU regarding risk management was not fully in accordance with risk management standards since the company's procedures had not accommodated the entire risk management process. Therefore, it is necessary to formulate procedures for risk management that are integrated with the company's mining safety management system and understood by each line of management.

Evolutionary Stability Analysis of the Coal Mine Safety Management System Governed by Delay and Impulsive Differential Equations

Control of unsafe behaviors has always been a difficult point in Coal Mine Safety Management (CMSM). To study the regular pattern of behavior propagations in CMSM, a series of evolutionary dynamical system models are established by the delay and impulsive differential equations (DIDEs). The threshold constraints (TCs) and impulse responses in the models can accurately correspond to the actual inspection and supervision measures in safety management. Through the simulation analysis and comparison of the system stability, it can be concluded that some proper settings of the TCs and impulse responses bring satisfactory evolutionary stability. Based on the main results of this study, we put forward some decision-making suggestions on the control points and control strategies of unsafe behaviors in safety management.

Accidents analysis and prevention of coal and gas outburst: Understanding human errors in accidents

Coal is an important energy resource internationally. However, accidents have severely restricted the clean and safe production of coal resources. Among such accidents, coal and gas outburst accidents are a kind of coalmine disaster with high destructive power. Previous research on coal and gas outburst accidents mainly focused on gas factors but ignored the role of human factors. This paper analyses the coal and gas outburst accidents in China from 2008 to 2018 and studies its macroscopic laws. To better understand the causes of coal and gas outbursts, this paper uses the 24modelel to analyse coal and gas accidents and suggest measures for accident prevention from the two aspects ‘gas’ (risk control) and ‘humans’ (behavioural safety). Macroscopic law research found the following: (1) March, May, July, and August are the predominant months for accidents. (2) The second to fourth hours of the working hours and the first hour before the end of work are the peak periods for accidents. (3) Guizhou, Hunan, Henan, Sichuan, Yunnan, and Chongqing are the provinces with the most coal and gas outburst accidents. (4) An overall 75.82 % of accidents occurred in the driving face, and 81.08 % of accidents occurred in coal and gas outburst mines. (5) Blasting, drilling, driving, and coal falling are the main inducing factors. Case analysis of accidents found the following: (1) Human error is the leading cause of accidents. Among the errors, the lack of strict enforcement of outburst prevention measures, illegal command, and the illegal operation of miners are the main unsafe acts. (2) Safety knowledge and awareness of miners is not generally high, and serious habitual violations and unsafe psychologies exist. (3) The gas comprehensive prevention system and supervision system in the coal mine safety management system (SMS) can be easily operated improperly, and the safety training system and emergency management system can be absent. (4) Coalmine enterprises seriously lack safety culture.

Simulation of Truck Haulage Operations in an Underground Mine Using Big Data from an ICT-Based Mine Safety Management System

Information communication technology (ICT)-based mine safety management systems are being introduced at numerous mining sites to track the location of equipment and workers in real time and monitor environmental changes. This paper presents the results of a case study in which the big data created by an ICT-based mine safety management system are used for simulating truck haulage operations. An underground limestone mine located in Danyang, South Korea was studied, and the data generated over three months, from October 1 to December 31, 2018, were analyzed. Truck tag packet data recognized by relays were extracted and analyzed to calculate the averages and standard deviations of the truck travel times of each mine segment. A discrete event simulation program that simulates truck haulage operations in the study area was developed. Haulage times, the number of haulage operations, production output, and truck delay times were predicted, and results were compared with the actual operation results that were obtained on January 2 and 9, 2019. The difference between the predicted and actual results for the total amount of loaded ore was 30 tons for January 2 and 0 tons for January 9. The mean absolute error between the predicted and observed truck travel times was 0.13 min for January 2 and 0.14 min for January 9. The truck travel times that were measured differently according to the data aggregation period were set as temporal factors, and truck haulage simulations were performed. The results showed that more reliable simulation results were obtained as data accumulation time increased.
