Dangerous Incident: Unplanned Movement on Conveyor Belt

Dangerous Incident Safety Incident Coal Mine
Summary: An unplanned movement occurred on a continuous miner conveyor boom. The movement only stopped when the boom reached the mechanical stops. The fault could be repeated.

Recommendations to industry: Unplanned movement of machinery should be accounted for when developing safe standing zones. This risk should be communicated to workers during no-go zone training.
