ANALYSIS OF FATAL TRAUMATISM IN OPENCAST COAL MINING OPERATIONS

Abstract

Workers fatal traumatism analysis in open-cast coal mining from 2004 to 2016 is fulfilled. Fatal accidents are grouped together, and the causes of fatal injuries are analyzed in groups. It has been established that in recent years there has been a decrease in fatal injuries in the opencast mining operations. The main reason for improving work safety is the more strict control over the industrial safety situation at hazardous industrial facilities by the state. The reduction in the number of fatal injuries is also due to the use of automated production management systems. The measures taken make it possible to increase the labor discipline of personnel at opencast coal mines. The greatest number of deaths in opencast mining is due to electric shocks (24%) and during transport operations (23%). The main reasons for such incidents are unsatisfactory organization of work, shortcomings in training, violation of safety rules, low level of labor discipline.
