Part 48 Subpart B Refresher

Welcome to the MSHA 30CFR Part 48, Subpart B, Annual Refresher Training course. This course is designed to help you achieve a greater awareness of the health and safety hazards inherent in surface mining. The course aims to provide experienced miners with greater understanding of surface mine health and safety hazards, the regulations that accompany work at a mine, and the rights of miners.

Many hazards are present at a surface mine site, and understanding those hazards is critical to your safety and the safety of your fellow miners. Accordingly,MSHArequires eight hours of refresher training for experienced miners after each year of mining.

In an emergency situation, your safety training may save lives!
