According to the Rosstat, every year more than 60% of the occupational accidents are related to poor management – failure to meet safety standards, poor organisation of work, deficiency of occupational safety certified specialists, lack of personnel training and periodic medical examinations of workers and non-compliance with labour regulations. Health and safety standards are intrinsic to mining for avoiding injuries and fatalities of the miners.
