| 摘要： | The University of Arizona (UA) created the Western Mining Safety and Health Training Resource Center in 2010. The project has changed the way mine safety training is conducted with safety leadership training, active learning, and gaming strategies. We have increased the safety-focused, total-health aware, leadership competency of front- line supervisors, superintendents, and managers representing operations throughout the U.S., spanning all major commodity sectors in surface and underground mining, as well as contractors. The Center has implemented health and safety-focused leadership competencies that respond in near real-time to changing workforce needs and environments of Western U.S operations. Further, we continue increasing the capacity,tools, and methods to reduce miner exposure risks associated with heat, noise, and aerosol particulates. Phase 1 of the Center was conducted from September 1, 2010 to August 31, 2014. Phase 2 of the Center was conducted from September 1, 2014 to August 31, 2017. We have five aims for Phase 2 of the Center: 1) We propose to network the best mine safety professionals to create the Health and Safety Technical Partnership (HSTP) to assist in writing or reviewing training materials that are based on competencies that will improve transfer of safety learning from the training room to the workplace. 2)We will run a high-level training clinic to train trainers to use these best practices and we will provide a certificate of completion for each level completed. 3) We will measure the effectiveness of the training methods by requesting trainers collect data and follow up with us. 4) We will adapt our computer simulation software platform to measure safety competencies. 5) Our Mine Institute for Supervisor Leadership (MISL) will be modified to include competency measures. All of our materials and training practices will accommodate English Language Learners, low literacy learners, and education disadvantaged learners (e.g. dyslexia). We will have a particular focus on serving the needs of small and medium sized mines. |
