  • Este curso está diseñado para cumplir con los requisitos de la Parte 46 de MSHA. Esta Parte 46 aplica a las operaciones de dragado de escombro, arena, grava, rocas superficiales, cal en la superficie, fosfato coloidal y a las minas a cielo abierto de piedra caliza. Si su actividad es una distinta que también sea regulada por MSHA o si es usted un contratista independiente que opera en otro tipo de operaciones mineras, es posible que se le exija completar el entrenamiento de la Parte 48 en lugar del presente.

    Si usted es un Contratista Independiente, hay secciones dentro del entrenamiento de la Parte 46 que son un poco más difícil de aplicar, pero este curso le ofrece instrucciones especiales, que no solamente le ayudarán a completar este curso, sino también a cumplir con el objetivo máximo: mantener la seguridad en las áreas de trabajo de la mina.

    Usted debe estar enterado de cuáles son las regulaciones que afectan su actividad en la mina. Pueden existir requisitos de entrenamiento adicionales o especificaciones que no se contemplen en este curso. Usted debe poseer una copia del Plan de Capacitación de su compañía o conocer las obligaciones del tiempo mínimo requerido para cada tópico de estudio y asegurarse de que cumpla con el mínimo de horas de capacitación especificadas en su propio plan. El diseño de este curso se acerca mucho al entrenamiento marcado por la Parte 46 de MSHA. Una vez que complete este entrenamiento, el mismo necesita ser certificado por una persona de su compañía, que sea el responsable del entrenamiento en seguridad y salud en la mina. Esta persona debe estar enlistada en el Plan de Capacitación de su compañía.

    El tiempo total de capacitación para Nuevos Mineros es de 24 horas, en la cual se debe incluir entrenamiento en Primeros Auxilios y en RCP (Resucitación Cardio-Pulmonar. Este plan de 4 horas que aquí se contempla, debe otorgarse antes de que el minero inicie el trabajo, pero permite que él o ella, trabaje en minas bajo la observación de un Minero experimentado, incluso antes de que complete la parte restante del total requerido de entrenamiento. (Nótese que ésto es de acuerdo a la regulación 30 CFR § 46.5(a) de MSHA. No es extraño que una mina requiera que los trabajadores de un contratista se presenten con toda la capacitación completa.) El trabajador entonces, debe finalizar los cursos de Primeros Auxilios y RCP en un lapso de 60 días. En un plazo de 90 días, ellos deben completar el entrenamiento adicional, de modo que se totalicen las 24 horas obligatorias. También puede incluirse cualquier entrenamiento que promueva la salud y la seguridad en la mina, incluyendo entrenamiento práctico en la operación misma. La capacitación no necesariamente debe completarse en el sitio de la mina.

    Partes del entrenamiento aquí presentado, le familiarizarán con las regulaciones, inspecciones y requisitos de entrenamiento de la Administración de Salud y Seguridad en Minas.

  • This 4-hour MSHA Part 46 New Miner Training Online Introduction is a "Jump Start" course designed to deliver the initial safety and emergency response topics required for you to begin work on a Part 46 mine. After completing the initial 4-hour training, MSHA regulations allow the trainee to begin work UNDER THE SUPERVISION of an experienced miner.

    This course is designed to meet MSHA Part 46 requirements. Part 46 applies to shell dredging, sand, gravel, surface stone, surface clay, colloidal phosphate, and surface limestone mines. If your work is in other MSHA regulated operations or you are an independent contractor that operates in other types of mining operations, you may be required to complete Part 48 training instead.

    If you are an Independent Contractor there are sections within the Part 46 training that are a bit more difficult to apply, but this course offers special instruction that will not only help you complete the course, but accomplish the ultimate goal: keep you safe in mine work areas.

    You should be aware of what regulations cover your activity at the mine. There may be additional training requirements or stipulations not covered here. You should also have a copy of your company's training plan or know the time constraints for each topic of study and be sure your study meets the minimum hours outlined in your particular plan. The course design here closely matches the template for Part 46 training provided by MSHA. When completed, your training will need to be certified by the person in your company responsible for mine safety and health training. This person is listed in your company's training plan.

    The total time of study for New Miner is 24 hours, which must include first aid training (Review of First Aid Methods). The four hour portion covered here must be done before the miner begins work, but allows him or her to work on a mine site under the observation of an experienced miner before completing the remainder of the training. (Note that this is according to MSHA regulation 30 CFR § 46.5(a). It is not uncommon for a mine to require contract workers to come with all training complete.) The worker must then complete the first aid within 60 days. Within 90 days they must complete additional training to bring the total to 24 hours. This may be any training that promotes health and safety at the mine including on-the-job training. The training need not be completed at a mine site.

    Part of the training presented here will familiarize you with Mine Safety and Health Administration regulations, inspections, and training requirements.

  • This online mining refresher course is designed to assist you in meeting Mining Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) Part 46 annual refresher requirements. Part 46 applies to shell dredging, sand, gravel, surface stone, surface clay, colloidal phosphate, and surface limestone mines. If your work is in other MSHA regulated operations or you are an independent contractor that operates in other types of mining operations, you may be required to complete Part 48 training instead.

    Whether you are a miner or an independent contractor, there are sections within the Part 46 training that must address issues of your specific operation. This course offers special instruction that will help you do that as well as provide training for the more generic MSHA recommended topics. In addition, it will help you accomplish your ultimate goal beyond MSHA compliance: to keep you safe in mine work areas.

    You should be aware of what regulations cover your activity at the mine. There may be additional training requirements or stipulations not covered here.

    You must have a copy of your company's training plan or know the time constraints for each topic of study and be sure your study meets the minimum hours outlined in your particular plan. Note that while this course covers the majority of subjects recommended for the refresher training, you must also fulfill some of the training requirements outside the scope of this course. For example, the regulations (46.8(b)) require a review of your site-specific hazards. The total time of study spent on the refresher must be a minimum of eight hours.

    The course design here closely matches the template for Part 46 training provided by MSHA. When completed, your training will need to be certified by the person in your company responsible for mine safety and health training.

  • Our MSHA Part 48 Online Surface Mining Refresher course is designed to assist you in meeting Mining Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) Part 48 requirements for most above-ground mines or above-ground operations at underground mines. Part 48 applies to coal mines, underground metal and nonmetal mines, surface metal mines, and certain surface nonmetal mines that are not in the following industries: surface stone, surface clay, sand and gravel, surface limestone, colloidal phosphate, and shell dredging mines and other surface operations that produce marble, granite, sandstone, slate, shale, traprock, kaolin, cement, feldspar, and lime. These mining industries must comply with the training requirements of Part 46. If your work is in both Part 48 and Part 46 mines, Part 48 training may be used to comply with Part 46 requirements.

    You should be aware of what regulations cover your activity at the mine. There may be additional training requirements or stipulations not covered here.

    You must have a copy of your company's training plan or know the time constraints for each topic of study and be sure your study meets the minimum hours outlined in your particular plan.

The total time of study spent on the refresher must be a minimum of eight hours. If you are training under another company's training plan, which is allowed for contractors, you should be sure they will accept online training as fulfilling the training requirements.

    ALL PART 48 TRAINING MUST BE DONE UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF AN MSHA CERTIFIED TRAINER.

  • Este curso está diseñado para cumplir con los Requisitos de la Parte 46 de MSHA, referentes al re-entrenamiento anual. La Parte 46 se refiere a operaciones tales como dragado de roca, de arena, grava, roca superficial, cal superficial, fosfato coloidal y minas superficiales de caliche. Si su trabajo se relaciona con operaciones distintas, pero reguladas por la MSHA o si es usted un contratista independiente que opera en otro tipo de actividades Mineras, podría ser el caso de que deba cumplir con la Parte 48 en lugar de esta capacitación.

    Si es usted un Contratista Independiente, existen secciones dentro de la capacitación de la Parte 46, que son un poco más difíciles de aplicar, pero este curso le ofrece instrucciones especiales que no solamente le ayudarán a completar el curso, sino a alcanzar el máximo objetivo: mantener la seguridad en las operaciones Mineras.

    Usted debe estar consciente de qué regulaciones aplican a sus actividades en la mina. Existen requerimientos adicionales de capacitación o especificaciones que no están contemplados aquí.

    Usted debe contar con una copia del Plan de Capacitación de su compañía, o conocer los tiempos designados para cada tópico del curso, y a la vez estar seguro de que el tiempo empleado en el estudio cumpla con los requisitos mínimos de tiempo exigidos por su propio Plan. Note que este curso cubre la mayoría de temas recomendados para el entrenamiento de refuerzo, aunque usted también debe cumplir con algunos requisitos de entrenamiento que están fuera del alcance de este curso. Por ejemplo, las regulaciones (46.8(b)) requieren una revisión de los riesgos específicos de su sitio de trabajo. El tiempo total de estudio invertido en el entrenamiento de refuerzo debe ser un mínimo de 8 horas.

    El diseño de este curso compagina de manera muy cercana con el Plan de Capacitación de la Parte 36 de la MSHA. Cuando finalice este curso, su entrenamiento necesita ser certificado por la persona de su empresa que sea la responsable del área de Seguridad en la Mina y Capacitación en Salud.
