Mine Safety and Health Services

Mining consultants providing expertise relative to Mine Safety and Health

Boyd’s entrance into mine safety and health coupled with its well known and trusted work in market forecasting as well as in mining, geologic and environmental consulting creates a unique solutions oriented presence within the consulting services community, by blending all aspects of mine consulting needs into a single source.

Our emphasis on instilling safety and health as values and integrating these critical components into a company’s overall business strategy is the key to creating a culture of prevention, and helping control loss in order to maximize return on investment.

Safety Systems Management - Guiding management on or in the development of a comprehensive health & mine safety system that incorporates effective processes designed to achieve expected results. BOYD also provides the necessary guidance on how to integrate health & safety into other aspects of the business plan.
Benchmarking – Mine Safety & Health - Creating opportunity for continuous improvement through the identification of best practices, and on targets that create and promote sustainable results.
Reviews (Audits) - Evaluating strategic components of the health and mine safety system to determine the effectiveness of systems management. Reviews offered by BOYD are critical to advancing health and safety performance and to maintaining the edge toward improved results.
Strategic Planning for Safety - Designing long-term safety processes and solutions that are focused on achievement of the organization's stated objectives. Consistent with a company’s overall strategic business plan, developing a business strategy for health and mine safety will create the path that leads the organization toward fulfilling its vision for employee health and safety.
Risk Analysis - Identifying potential and existing hazards and assessing the risk of those hazards in order to provide a proactive process of control before harm or loss occurs, and determining whether existing or planned control methods are adequate.
Emergency Preparedness/Response - Developing emergency preparedness plan which outlines defined procedures and responsibilities, knowing how to adequately prepare to respond to an unplanned event, assisting in the actual execution of the plan, and helping ensure a safe rescue or recovery operation.
Incident Investigations - Providing support in incident (accident) investigations and analysis of the underlying causal factors leading to the incident. Key in BOYD’s approach is our ability to look for contributing factors (facts) rather than the traditional approach of finding fault. Taking this approach leads to effective re-occurrence measures, a critical component of prevention.
Litigation Support - Providing incident investigations, regulatory litigation, insurance claims, product or equipment standards, damage assessments, underground and surface control measures, and expert witness services.
Regulatory and Legislative Affairs - Analyzing rules and regulations (proposed and existing), lobbying services, and reviewing or developing responses to proposed actions.
- Compliance Assistance - Determining best approaches toward compliance with complex statutory or regulatory matters, providing guidance on compliance and non-compliance liabilities (company and individual), and dealing effectively with regulatory agencies and legislative bodies.
