Mining

From a volatile commodities market to financing, safety, and employment issues, the pressure on mining companies to be efficient, productive, and profitable has never been greater. The operational risks posed by an ever-shrinking resource pool, decentralized risk management experience, inefficient manual processes, and more difficult and dangerous operating environments pose a huge challenge to global mining companies. Many companies that do not use a system to more effectively identify, analyze, reduce and monitor risks and hazards often lack visibility into the risks that may affect business development. Mining companies are facing increasing pressure to improve global competitiveness, as well as to maintain sustainable development principles and protect the interests of employees and shareholders.

While the costs of exploration, development and mining continue to grow, regulatory and sustainability requirements are becoming increasingly stringent and demanding, putting more pressure on the production, EHS, and other organizational units.

As a result of business growth or the acquisition of other companies, EHS compliance with the laws and regulations, such as MSHA, OSHA, EPA, WSIB, EU, AS / NZS will become increasingly important. Frequently, individual mining companies use different methods to define and assess risk, use different models to record the severity and likelihood of risk, and use multiple analytical methods and methods to control risk. This will create an isolated risk knowledge base and hinder the ability to accurately and effectively manage the entire business risk. All of these factors determine the need to build a strong enterprise risk management system.
