At the Tripartite Stakeholder Leadership Summit in 2003, the
mining industry agreed that an action-driven plan was necessary
to ensure significant improvements in mine health and safety
performance.
The mining industry developed the targets that must be achieved
by 2013. The key themes of the actions that were identified are:
Strengthening culture of health and safety
Promoting a learning industry and building capacity
Making workplaces safer and healthier
The year 2013 is the time for reporting and to review performance
against the set targets

Occupational Safety Fatalities and InjuriesMilestones
Industry Target: Zero
rate of fatalities and
injuries
In the Gold Sector: By 2013, achieve safety performance levels equivalent
to at least current international benchmarks for underground
metalliferous mines
In the Platinum, Coal and Other Sectors: By 2013, achieve constant and
continuous improvement equivalent to at least current international
benchmarks
Occupational HealthMilestones
Industry Target:
Elimination of
Silicosis
By December 2008, 95% of all exposure measurement results will be below
the occupational exposure limit for respirable crystalline silica of0.1mg/m3 (these results are individual readings and not average
results)
After December 2013, using present diagnostic techniques, no new cases
of silicosis will occur amongst previously unexposed individuals
(Previously unexposed individuals = individuals unexposed prior to
2008, i.e. equivalent to a new person entering the industry in 2008)
Industry target:
Elimination of Noise
Induced Hearing Loss
(NIHL)
After December 2008, the hearing conservation programme implemented
by the industry must ensure that there is no deterioration in hearing
greater that 10% amongst occupationally exposed individuals
By December 2013, the total noise emitted by all equipment installed in any
workplace must not exceed a sound pressure level of 110dB(A) at any
location in that workplace (includes individual pieces of equipment)
