Open Pit Mining Workplace Inspection Checklist
This open pit mining workplace inspection checklist helps teams verify safe, compliant operations across pits, ROM stockpiles, waste dumps, and haul roads. It guides checks on access control, road condition, camber and super-elevation, windrows and bunds, delineation, lighting, dust suppression, signage, and restricted areas. Inspectors confirm pit wall stability, batter angles, bench access, floor levels and gradients, pumping and water management to sumps, and communications or two-way network status. It also covers PPE use, incident and hazard reporting, facility cleanliness, fuel and go-line conditions, and crew readiness before work begins.

Quarry Audit
This document presents a detailed quarry safety audit template designed to ensure comprehensive site inspection and safety compliance. The audit covers multiple operational areas including pit inspections (Pit 1, 2, and 4), ROM access, fixed plant operations, workshops, and administrative facilities. Key inspection points include PPE compliance, signage verification, housekeeping standards, bunding requirements, and structural integrity of high walls and pit floors. The template also addresses dust suppression, equipment guarding, storage facilities, and road conditions throughout the quarry. This systematic approach helps maintain safety standards, identify potential hazards, and ensure regulatory compliance across all quarry operations. The audit structure allows for documentation of corrective actions, assignment of responsibilities, and tracking of completion dates for identified issues.
