The consideration of human factors issues is vital to the mining
industry. As in other safety-critical domains, human performance
problems constitute a significant threat to system safety, making
the study of human factors an important field for improving safety
in mining operations. The primary purpose of this book is to
provide the reader with a much-needed overview of human factors
within the mining industry, in particular to understand the role of
human error in mine safety, explaining contemporary risk management
and safety systems approaches. The approach taken is
multidisciplinary and holistic, based on a model of the systems of
work in the mining industry domain. The ingredients in this model
include individual operators, groups/teams, technology/equipment,
work organisation and the physical environment. Throughout the
book, topics such as human error and safety management are covered
through the use of real examples and case studies, allowing the
reader to see the practical significance of the material presented
while making the text rigorous, useful and enjoyable. Understanding
Human Error in Mine Safety is written for professionals in the
field, researchers and students of mining engineering, safety or
human factors.
