IMC mining company produces gold and silver. In mining operations that are carried out every day in the workplace, there must be dangers and risks. All these hazards are more related to the transport systems and transport used in the mining process. International mining company (IMC) underground mines definitely have operations division jobs with a high level of risk against work accidents, for example, maintenance of transport installations and the systems. Therefore, it is important to identify hazards, risk assessments, and determine the type of risk control in the section where work accidents are found. Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment Determining Control is a prevention program against fatal incidents. Risk Management at IMC is based on the Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment Determining Control (HIRADC) methodology which focuses on managing mining safety risks. This article aims to find out what the potential hazards and risks are contained in the work of the engineering and transport of underground mining division as well as provide preventive measures to reduce these risks.
