Nominations Open for 2020 Mine Safety Awards

The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) is accepting nominations until July 1 for its 2020 Mine Safety and Health Technology Innovation Awards. The award recognizes a mine or company for “extraordinary achievements in applying health and safety technology in innovative ways, above and beyond mandatory requirements, to improve mine worker safety and health.” The goal is to promote technology identification, adoption and dissemination throughout the mining industry. A technology manufacturer may submit an award but the company must be working with a mine operator who is an active participant in the full process, from developing the innovative technology to adopting the technology into their mining operation. Information on submitting nominations including specific details for the metal and coal sector awards can be found online at www.cdc.gov/niosh/mining/ content/innovationsawards.html. Contact Tom Harman at tharman@nma.org or Moya Phelleps at mphelleps@nma.org for more information.
