The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)
conducted the first comprehensive survey of the U.S. mining
population in more than 20 years. The National Survey of the Mining
Population captured the current profile of the U.S. mining
workforce. Data collection began in March 2008 and continued
through August 2008. Randomly selected mining operations in all of
the major mining sectors (i.e., coal, metal, nonmetal, stone, and
sand and gravel) received the survey and had the option of
completing a paper or web-based questionnaire. A total of 737
mining operations returned completed questionnaires and reported
data for 9,008 employees. Two sets of data were collected in this
national survey. There were questions about the mining operation,
including employee training, work schedules, the use of independent
contractor employees, and mine communication and safety systems.
The employee questions included demographic and occupational
questions about individual employees. The survey sample data were
weighted in order to provide national estimates of mine and
employee characteristics. This Information Circular (IC) is
published in two parts-"Part I: Employees" presents the
employee-level data and "Part II: Mines" presents the mine-level
data. Both parts of this IC include an overview of the survey
background, development of the survey materials, sample design and
sample selection, data collection and processing, statistical
weighting, and lessons learned. The survey data are summarized for
the overall U.S. mining industry and the five major mining sectors.
The information gathered from the survey respondents is being
published only as summarized data so that no single mining
operation or employee can be identified.
