Incident reports database

Resources Safety maintains an online incident reports database of all incidents as reported by mine sites.  Data can be sorted by incident number; surface or underground; or type of incident.

A guideline on accident and incident reporting is available.

MineHealth database

Mining industry employers are required under legislation to establish and maintain a health surveillance system for employees. Results from health assessments must be forwarded to Resources Safety.  This information is stored in our online MineHealth database.

MineHealth forms and procedures are available in the Mining section.
