Abstract

A single major injury suffered by a miner (or miner’s death) changes the lives of many people connected with the miner such as his/her relatives, friends, neighbours, colleagues etc. Moreover, it creates panic among the co – miners and demotivates them and hence, can result in reducing the dedication, strength, skills etc., among the co - miners. Concerning the above scenario, safety is considered as among the top priorities in many of the industries but when it comes to coal mining, the safety of the workers should be assigned highest priority as even a little negligence can lead to major disasters (such as in the cases of fire, methane explosions, fall of roof, spontaneous heating of coal etc.) in the Coal Mines (CMs). The work presented here addresses the safety issues related with the coal mines by carrying out enhanced due diligence on the past accidents and their causes in the context of coal mining in India and forms a set of recommendations to be followed by the miners and the mining safety authorities in order to ensure the safe return of a father to his son/daughter, a husband to his wife, a wife to her husband, a friend to a friend, a son/daughter to his/her father/mother etc.
