Diseño de una estrategia de gestión en seguridad industrial para la fase de exploración avanzada en una concesión de régimen de mediana minería que cumpla con la normativa ecuatoriana vigente

Abstract

The design of an industrial safety management strategy, for the advanced exploration phase in a medium mining concession, that complies with current Ecuadorian regulations, has been carried out based on the analysis of the Ecuadorian regulations regarding industrial safety in the mining sector, and the definition of the process map in the different stages of advanced exploration. Once the process map was defined, the job positions were determined with the task description, identifying hazards, occupational risks and consequences, the control measures and operating procedures were established with the methodology. The process map and hazard and risk identification served as the basis for the design of the industrial safety management strategy, including all the legal requirements applicable to advanced mineral exploration. Finally, the necessary safety management implementation activities were defined, and the budget for execution was established. This research project is the basis for the systematization in a computer program to store the records, documents, reports and indicators of the industrial safety management carried out by a mining company in the advanced exploration phase.
