In early December, MSHA released its mine safety data for FY2023, ending September 30, 2023. The data includes a look at the number of mines and miners, as well as enforcement trends and accident and injury numbers. MSHA also provides a 7-year look back for similar information. What does all this data mean? In this episode, Chris and Arthur decipher these numbers and discuss these numbers and how this data compares to recent years, as well as current mine safety and health industry trends. Finally, in addition to MSHA’s numbers, Fisher Phillips’s MSHA Violations Tracker includes a comprehensive dataset of violations that have occurred since January 1, 2022 as reported by the Department of Labor.
