Industrial labelling systems manufacturer, Graphic Products, Inc., will conduct a free mining webinar for safety, maintenance and operations managers on Wednesday, June 13 at 10 am, Pacific Time/1 pm, Eastern Time.
“Incidents happen. MSHA inspections, violations, orders and safeguards change from inspector to inspector and region to region,” said Canadian expert Martin Carter.
“One of our goals is to help make safety communications as easy as possible to implement – particularly at remote sites. We are an offsite resource for all our mine sites providing technical assistance and we focus on making signage the easiest part of your job. We get calls all the time about pipe marking guides and arc flash regulations through NFPA70E. We will review all codes, contact MSHA for clarification, and provide technical advice including color-coded signs and labels to make applications readily available in some of the toughest conditions on the planet.”
This complimentary webinar will show you proper visual safety awareness for site employees and visitors, security measures to improve identification and safety labeling best practices within the mining industry.
Carter has provided visual communication solutions to mining companies world-wide for more than eight years and has published articles in Canadian Mining, Aggregates Manager, Industry Week and other publications. As a strategist, he has worked directly with mine safety managers to customize and implement safety identification programs that comply with the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) while improving visual communications and security. He also served as a training non-commissioned officer for U.S. Marine Corp Special Forces.
