Mine Safety Health Standards

Mine Safety and Health Standards are regulations designed to protect the health and safety of workers in mines. Established by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) in the United States, these standards cover various aspects, including equipment use, emergency preparedness, ventilation, and training for miners. The goal is to prevent accidents, injuries, and health issues associated with mining operations. Adhering to these standards ensures a safer working environment for miners and promotes the responsible management of natural resources.
