Mining in Western Australia has long been one of the state\u2019s most crucial industries, but it has grown to historic proportions in recent years, contributing over $100 billion to the economy and supporting more local jobs than ever [1]. According to a DMIRS report, since 1997-98, the number of miners working in the mining sector has tripled from 43,466 to 132,144 from 2019-2020 [2].<\/p>\n

While this impressive growth continues to power Western Australia\u2019s (WA) economy forward, it brings a greater risk of Lost-Time Injuries (LTIs). In response to the growing sector, the Australian government has recently passed new legislation requiring mine sites to assess risks and develop controls to mitigate them. This is essential to ensuring WA\u2019s miners stay safe and compliant with all mine safety and inspection regulations.<\/p>\n

Western Australia\u2019s Work, Health, and Safety Regulations 2022 (WHS Regulations) came into full effect on 31 March 2022, granting the Mining Industry of Western Australia a great deal of needed protection. The introduction of this new system would bring the Work, Health, and Safety Act 2020 into full force, accompanied by several subsidiary regulations specific to industries such as Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Operations and Mines [3]. These regulations provide an improved framework to ensure employers fulfil their obligations and create safer workplaces for both employees and visitors.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
