Welcome to the May edition of CORESafety TV — the online video program from the National Mining Association. This month, we’re introducing a new in-depth interview segment called “Center of Safety” on CORESafety TV.

Periodically, we’ll be talking with mining executives where we “dig a little deeper” by asking how they themselves got started in mining. We’ll also find out what they’re doing these days to focus even more on achieving the 0-50-5 objective at their operations.

Our first Center of Safety interview features Joe Usibelli Jr., the president and CEO of Usibelli Coal Mine in Healy, Alaska.

We also explain:

• Why “Safety & Health Management Assurance” is important (Module #16)
• How to stay in compliance by integrating improvement cycles
• Why it’s vital to maintain up-to-date information and keep good records
• How you can use the “Core 4 Tips” for May 2019
