Mining and Resources WHS Management Plan

Product Overview

The Mining and Resources WHS Management Plan is a comprehensive, ready-to-use safety management framework specifically designed for Australian mining and resources operations. It provides a structured, legally informed approach to managing work health and safety across exploration, construction, production, processing, maintenance and closure activities.

This professionally developed plan helps organisations demonstrate robust WHS compliance, manage high-risk mining activities, and align with industry best practice. It covers the full lifecycle of WHS management, from risk identification and control, through to training, incident management, emergency response and continuous improvement.

Ideal for mine sites, quarries, processing plants and remote camps, this document gives safety leaders a practical blueprint to build, implement and maintain an effective WHS management system without starting from scratch.

  • Emergency preparedness and response guidance for fires, explosions, vehicle incidents, chemical spills and medical emergencies.
