Emergency management: Audit guide and template

Last updated: 25 February 2025

An effective emergency plan assists a mining operation to systematically identify, understand, and manage the hazards and risks associated with emergencies whilst ensuring compliance with the Mines Safety and Inspection Act 1994 and Mines Safety and Inspection Regulations 1995. 

This audit is intended to enable sites to assess the adequacy of their emergency planning, including how well the defined and documented practices have been implemented.
