MINE HEALTH AND SAFETY INSPECTORATE
Annual Report
2009/2010
2 August 2011
Presentation Outline
1. Background
2. Health and Safety Performance.
3. OHS Improvement Strategy.
4. Mine Safety Achievements.
Background
• Commodity prices breaking records with gold price
exceeding $1 600 /oz and speculators predicting $2 000/oz
platinum price in near future.
• Public sector infrastructure spending worth R808.6 bn over
MTEF.
• Mining growth further expected in the North West, Limpopo,
Mpumalanga and Northern Cape Provinces.
• Diminishing gold ore reserves resulting in deepening of
shafts and mining of shaft and remnant pillars.
• Poor legacy of health management resulting in social and
economic impact with suffering mine employees and
companies facing potential multimillion rand claims.

Purpose
Execute the Department’s mandate to safeguard the health and
safety of the mine employees and people affected by mining
activities.
Objective
Reduce mining-related deaths, injuries and ill health through the
formulation of national policy and legislation, the provision of
advice, and the application of systems that monitor, audit and
enforce compliance in the mining sector.

MHSI 2009/10 Performance
2009/10 Achievements/ Successes
Improved stakeholder relationships
• Quarterly meetings in all regions with Unions.
• Quarterly meetings with DoL, DoH and DPP.
Address Health and Safety Risks:
• Completed Inquiries & Investigations as planned.
• Audits (83%) & Inspections (91%).
Development of Guidelines
• Reviewed existing Guidelines.
(e.g. Underwater Mining; Emergency Preparedness; and Drawpoints, Tipping
Points & Orepasses).
Review and develop internal policies and procedures
Exams Policy, Medical Appeal Procedure; Inclusion or Non-Inclusion of Fatal
accidents in Statistics.
Human Resource Development
• 99 Officials completed a course on Risk Management in Mining.
• 97 Officials completed Health & Safety Training
(Legal, Inspection, Audit, Investigation and inquiries).
Challenges
• Accidents in the mines “one life lost is one too many”.
• Elimination of recurring accidents.
• Fall of ground and TMM risk presents a significant
obstacle to achievement of zero harm.
• High rate of occupational illness and diseases.
• TB, HIV and AIDS impact on society and industry.
• Accuracy
results.
of
Occupational
Hygiene
Measurement
• Growing mining sector versus skills base.
• Entrenching sustainable compliance culture in mining
sector.
• Failure to adopt leading practice.
OHS Improvement Strategies
Restructuring of MHSI to enhance enforcement capacity
• Splitting of the North West regional office into two
independent offices. PI will be appointed in Rustenburg;
• Establishment of regional compliance and investigation units;
• Appointment of legal advisors at the regional offices to assist
with investigations and inquiries;
• Chief Directorate: Occupational Health has been established
and is operational;
• 19 Learner Inspectors appointed at our regional offices;
• 18 Bursary Students doing engineering courses;
• Training Initiatives with WITS, MQA and IRCA.
Promotion and Enforcement
• Enhance co-operation with tripartite stakeholders through the
MHSC and MQA;
• Mine Health and Safety Summit to be held during the financial
year;
• Arrange regional quarterly tripartite forum meetings to share
health and safety information;
• Engaging unions on health and safety matters;
• Requesting quarterly reports from the mining company boards
and engaging CEOs;
• Review of the Mine Health and Safety Act and Regulations to
strengthen enforcement and set minimum standards;
• SIMRAC/CGS project on integration of seismic networks has
commenced.
• Stoppage of unsafe mines in line with our legislation maintained
(441 issued and 726 transgressions addressed).
Areas addressed in Section 54 Instructions
Occupational Health
• Promote the review and implementation of effective mine
health programmes to prevent significant exposure to health
hazards;
• Employ the services of a NIOH/CSIR to assist MHSI with
verification of mine sampling results;
• Collaboration with the DoH and other stakeholders to ensure a
sustainable improvement on ill-health including HIV and TB;
• HIV/TB Summit will be held in this financial year;
• Reviewed Mining Charter now includes health and safety
issues and require companies to improve housing and living
conditions of mine employees.
