NSW Mine Safety Alerts
Safety Alerts are an important communication tool between Industry & Investment NSW and the NSW mining industry, suppliers, unions and industry organisations. I&I NSW issues a Safety Alert following the occurrence of an event such as a fatal accident, dangerous occurrence and an incident which is considered to be of significance to the industry, with the aim of preventing a similar occurrence.
