Abstract

For a modern mining company with attractive and safe workplaces a new type of leader for tomorrow’s Health and Safety at work is needed. This was the reason for four leading European mining universities to working closely together with industrial partners in order to develop a PhD-Programme with a focus on increasing mine safety, using the most up to date research data and basing their studies on industry-driven, real scenarios and projects.

This programme, SafeMine, aims to develop a holistic, timely and resilient PhD-Programme in Health and Safety in mining and to train a cadre of qualified professionals who can lead the future of health and safety work in the European mining industry based on a modern view of how an attractive and safe mine should be designed and organized.

Zusammenfassung

Moderne Bergbauunternehmen, welche attraktive und sichere Arbeitsbedingungen bieten möchten, brauchen zukünftig entsprechend ausgebildetes Führungspersonal.

Aus diesem Grund arbeiten vier der führenden europäischen Bergbauuniversitäten mit Industriepartnern zusammen, um ein gemeinsames, koordiniertes Programm zur Doktorandenausbildung mit Fokus auf Arbeitssicherheit und Gesundheitsschutz im Bergbau ins Leben zu rufen. Die Forschungsthemen basieren dabei auf aktuellen, industrierelevanten Forschungsfragen und Herausforderungen.

Dieses Programm, SafeMine, bietet einen ganzheitlichen und strukturierten Ansatz, um den zukünftigen Bedarf an hochqualifiziertem Führungspersonal für den europäischen Bergbausektor im Bereich Arbeitssicherheit und Gesundheitsschutz auszubilden.
