Trackless mobile machinery regulation a contentious point for industry

The regulation of trackless mobile machinery (TMM) in the mining industry will be the subject of ongoing debate between mines and the Mine Health and Safety Inspectorate in the next couple of years, when further regulations may be  promulgated. At ENSAfrica’s Mine Health and Safety (MHS) Seminar 2017, on Tuesday ENSAfrica director Warren Hendricks noted that amendments to the  Mine Health and Safety regulations and to the Minerals Act Regulations, as well as the introduction of new guidelines for the compilation of mandatory codes of practice, were introduced over the last two years to improve mine safety.
