Abstract

This study addresses the implementation of a behavior-based safety coaching model to reduce the occurrence of substandard acts in an underground mining company in Peru. The previous database of accidents and incidents provided by the mining company was analyzed to prepare data tables of the degrees of accidents and safety-related incidents. Then, the highest-risk activities are considered with respect to the behavior-based safety model to observe workers. The substandard acts are examined, and an action plan was drafted using the behavior-based coaching model according to the safety management model adopted in the mine. This paper examines the application of a safety management model in an underground mine in Peru by collecting and observing data through the behavior-based safety model, proposal of solutions under the coaching model, and analysis of the final results of substandard behaviors obtained with respect to the initial behaviors.
