New Miner Training Program - Coal Surface Mines
Section 48.25

Each new miner must receive no less than 24 hours of training [§ 48.25(a)]. Upon approval by MSHA,
new miners may receive a portion of this training after assignment to work duties; provided that,
no less than 8 hours of training is given before they are assigned to work duties. The following
courses must be included in the 8 hours of training: Introduction to work environment, hazard

recognition, and health and safety aspects of the tasks to which the new miners will be assigned.
After completion of this pre-assignment training, new miners must then receive the remainder of
the required 24 hours of training, or up to 16 hours, within 60 days. Miners who have not received
the full 24 hours of new miner training must be required to work under the close supervision of an
experienced miner.
Do you request that part of new miner training be given after work assignment?
Yes  

No  

If yes, give justification based on such factors as: the mine safety record, rate of employee turnover
and mine size.

The training plan must contain a program for training miners before they are assigned to new work tasks. For the purposes of
new task training, "task" means a work assignment that includes duties of a job that occur on a regular basis and which requires
physical abilities and job knowledge [§ 48.22(f)]. All training and supervised practice and operation required by this section must
be given by a qualified trainer, or a supervisor experienced in the assigned tasks, or other person experienced in the assigned
task [§ 48.27(d)].
The training program includes the following categories of miners:
Miners - Miners assigned to new work tasks as mobile equipment operators, drilling machine operators, haulage
and conveyor systems operators, ground control machine operators, and in blasting operations.
