FOREWORD
In an effort to refine and complement legislative regulations in mining, the Decree of the
Minister of Mines and Energy No. 555.K/26/M.PE/1995 was published on May 22, 1995 on Occupational Safety and Health. The regulations on occupational safety and health prevailing previous thereto were Mijn Politie Reglement (MPR) Number 341 published in 1930.
These occupational safety and health regulations are formulated to be capable of anticipating any progress in the field of mining in Indonesia at this time as well as in the future. These regulations apart from being more up-to-date are also more complete as the regulation for underground occupational safety and health has been covered in detail, both in terms of coal and ore mines. These standards for occupational safety and health also exceed the standards of the previous regulations and they are expected to be capable of meeting practical demands in providing protection and instructions/information to all workers in mining who face the problem of occupational safety and health.
The stipulations in these occupational safety and health regulations should be complied with by any worker in mining operations to prevent the occurrence of any accident.

Jakarta, September 1995
DIRECTOR GENERAL OF MINES signature/stamp KUNTORO MANGKUSUBROTO

    Darr Mine Research Paper

    1907 was the worst year in the history of America for coal miner; over 3,200 men lost their lives. Coal fueled the Industrial Age, and Pennsylvania produced the majority of it; producing over 100 million tons. Sadly, it also made the lives of coal miners and their families very hard. Miners were usually immigrant men and boys. The month of December saw three major explosions rock Pennsylvania and West Virginia. The Monongah Mine explosion, in West Virginia, killed 362 miners. The Darr Mine in Jacobs Creek killed 239 miners, and lastly, the Naomi Mine, in Pennsylvania, killed 34. Workers were paid by how much coal was produced, not by how much they worked. Labor and safety laws weren’t what they are today. Management neglect, and in some cases, criminal negligence, resulted in the mass losses of life. During the aftermath of the explosion at Darr Mine, both the Superintendent and the Fire Boss resigned. They reported that they told the owners about the unsafe conditions in the mine, and were ignored.…
