Risk-Based Thinking as a Basis for Efficient Occupational Safety Management in the Mining Industry

Abstract: This article deals with the role and the place of risk-based thinking in today’s occupational safety and health (OSH) systems used by mining companies. A brief survey on modern challenges and pressures affecting companies, as well as on the structure of supply chains, is given.
