2/21/2020 - Research projectsIdentify and characterize H&S performance practices through worker-technology-management interactions to provide guidance about risk processes with a focus on management of site risks and improvement in H&S values through empowering initiatives.
-
4/2/2019 - Research projectsA project to define workplace fatigue for the mining industry by developing a preliminary fatigue model and management system using a human factors systems approach, which accounts for the predictors causing fatigue.
-
3/12/2019 - Research projectsA project to inform future health and safety research related to powered haulage by identifying health and safety issues related to haul trucks through a systematic evaluation of accidents, operators’ needs, and technology maturity.
-
12/16/2018 - Research projectsA project to develop evidence-based fatigue toolkits, enabling mines to sustainably and independently measure fatigue, interpret fatigue assessments, and select, implement, and evaluate appropriate interventions related to mineworker fatigue.
-
6/12/2017 - Research projectsA project to use a systems approach to characterize what information needs to be provided to mine workers, determine the timing and format of that information, and then use this information to develop alternatives to interfaces design.
-
6/5/2017 - Research projectsA project to maintain a Coal Workers’ Health Surveillance Program (CWHSP) designed to identify the incidence and progression of coal workers’ pneumoconiosis in all coal miners.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to test an intervention to help miners use personal dust monitor feedback more effectively to reduce their exposure to respirable coal mine dust.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to work with a consultant, Human Performance Analysis, to assess the safety culture at U.S. coal mines.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA pilot project to identify leading indicators in health and safety management practices unique to the mining industry and compare them against the leading indicators of mature occupational health and safety programs.
