[QUOTE="Sjc, post: 596593, member: 20460"] There were safety procedures put in place at the mine by the hoist owner. Procedures to secure the bucket and the 100% risk minimisation of never enter the sump unless the bucket is secured. Were golden rules.Safety officers check claims every year and have never told miners that these hoists needed extra braking systems fitted to them. The mine holder and the mine operator have never put any safety plans in place as per their responsibilities and the only safety plan was for the equipment which was put in place by Tony Cummings who was not the title holder, was not the mine operator and was not the controller acting on behalf of the mine operator. Ag fab hoists were inspected where they were fabricated and were found fit for purpose by mine safety officers. Title holder and mine operator are both completely off the hook in this accident. Some miners do their best to be as safe as possible. Others take very unnecessary Russian roulette risks and die. [/QUOTE]
