However, the current situation in this area shows that the earlier measures are not enough and accidents at coal mines continue to cause tragic losses of life.

Head of the Federal Service for Environmental, Technological, and Nuclear Monitoring Alexander Trembitsky informed the participants that methane and coal dust explosions, as well as underground fires, present the greatest risk to the lives and health of the coal miners and can cause the most property damage. The regulatory framework underlying underground mining operations is being improved, and safety supervision in the coal industry has been tightened in order to prevent emergencies.

The participants discussed measures to toughen and improve industrial safety requirements at coal mines in Russia.

Following the meeting, recommendations will be drafted to federal and regional executive authorities and companies regarding the need to take urgent measures to improve industrial safety and labour protection, to reduce the number of accidents, and to preserve the lives and health of the coal miners.
