Book Safety Lamps and Colliery Explosions  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Safety Lamps and Colliery Explosions Classic Reprint written by James Ashworth and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Safety Lamps and Colliery Explosions The fearful explosions which are continually occurring in various parts of the world, notably that of the Universal Colliery in South Wales, the Fraterville coal-mine in Tennessee on the r9th of last May, and lastly the one at the Fernie No. A tunnel workings of the Crow's Nest coal field, on the 22nd of May, about p.m., are sufficient in themselves to cause those who have the charge of mines which give out firedamp, as well as those who have money invested in them, to seriously consider in what way this risk may be lessened, if not almost totally prevented. It is suggested by the newspaper reports on the Fernie disaster, that the explosion originated from blasting in the coal. Similarly it was also suggested that the explosion at the Universal Colliery, Senghenydd, was caused in a similar way, but in the latter case only one witness could be found to suggest that an explosive had originated the disaster, though many witnesses proved that it could not have thus originated, and that it was in all probability caused by a totally different cause, and in a totally different part of the mine. The other cause and in all probability tbc true one, was the failure of a safety lamp to prevent the flame inside the lamp igniting the firedamp outside.

Book To Punish or Persuade

Download or read book To Punish or Persuade written by John Braithwaite and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1985-06-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In To Punish or Persuade, John Braithwaite declares that coal mine disasters are usually the result of corporate crime. He surveys 39 coal mine disasters from around the world, including 19 in the United States since 1960, and concludes that mine fatalities are usually not caused by human error or the unstoppable forces of nature. He shows that a combination of punitive and educative measures taken against offenders can have substantial effects in reducing injuries to miners. Braithwaite not only develops a model for determining the optimal mix of punishment and persuasion to maximize mine safety, but provides regulatory agencies in general with a model for mixing the two strategies to ensure compliance with the law. To Punish or Persuade looks at coal mine safety in the United States, Great Britain, Australia, France, Belgium, and Japan. It examines closely the five American coal mining companies with the best safety performance in the industry: U.S. Steel, Bethlehem Steel, Consolidation Coal Company, Island Creek Coal Company, and Old Ben Coal Company. It also takes a look at the safety record of unionized versus non-unionized mines and how safety regulation enforcement impacts productivity.
