Symposium "Vision 2020 – A one world approach for a global preventive network in mining"
Prime Minister of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdoğan opened the XIX World Congress on Safety and Health at Work
In September 2011, Istanbul was the focal point for all safety experts in the mining industry with the XIX World Congress on Safety and Health at Work and the 22. World Mining Congress with its guiding theme “Innovations and Challenges in Mining” running in parallel. Naturally, this combination served as the ideal platform for ISSA Mining to discuss important matters of safety and health with a wide audience, strengthen existing contacts and initiate new relationships.
The world wide increasing demand for resources means safety and health protection in mining is not only a social responsibility, but clearly an economic factor as well and crucial for acceptance by all stakeholders involved.
Mark Füllemann, found particular interest when he discussed the special responsibility of the management in matters of OSH
As in previous years, ISSA Mining was inviting to the Symposium „Vision 2020 - A One World Approach for a Global Preventive Network in Mining” hosted jointly with the Turkish Ministry of Labour and Social Security (MoLSS) and the Hacettepe University, Turkey running Wednesday 14 September 2011. Speakers from Germany, the USA, Switzerland, Turkey, and Indonesia discussed how accident frequency and severity can be reduced, what legislative frameworks have to be established to promote this, how specific risks such as methan concentration can be controlled and how international cooperation can enhance the target of “Vision Zero” – mining without accidents.
High level safety can be implemented in SME as well, proved Dr Bettina Nickel
Swiss expert Mark Füllemann, found particular interest when he discussed the special responsibility of the management after decades of OSH experience. Füllemann showed the management’s role in establishing a new safety culture and the effect on safe behaviour throughout operations.
That successful safety measures are possible in small and medium enterprises as well has been demonstrated by Dr Bettina Nickel, Manager of German aggregate producer Johannes Nickel GmbH & Co. KG in her presentation „Make it Important - Behavioural Aspects and Measures of Improving OHS in SME Mines”.
