Mining during the parties, ‘er holidays

FOR SURFACE MINERS

REST IS BEST FAMILY FUN DRINK WITH CARE

Family, togetherness, joy........ late nights, eggnog with rum, added

emotional stress.... The holidays are a wonderful, and challenging,

time. The thing is, no matter the season, you still need to be your

most alert because accidents happen when we are distracted, tired or

even just impatient for a shift to end.

We know that you know all of this. However, this is the season when

we all could use a reminder about how important it is to stay the

course as our best selves.

• Go to bed on time before a shift.

• Fatigue impairs our performance

and can contribute to serious

accidents.

* No one likes missing out on special

moments during the holidays, but

mining hazards don’t know it’s

Christmas or New Years.

• More drinking happens during the holidays.

Don’t be hungover during your shift.

• Match every alcoholic drink with equal

amounts of water.

* Never drive under the influence at any

time.

• Enjoy your family time, but leave it

at home. Stress and distraction

equal accidents.

* For some family time is joyous, for

others it’s not. Either way, focus on

work at work.
