Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of the Committee on the Standardization of Mining Statistics
With reference to accidents, a standard form was discussed that should so cover fatal and nonfatal accidents that complete and com parable information would be available in the published reports of the States for anyone interested in the study of accidents. The forms discussed were so grouped and general in their character as to include not only coal and metal mines, but metallurgical plants.

Report of the Committee on the Standardization of Mining Statistics
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, drawing from interviews with state mine inspectors and representatives of industrial compensation commissions, presents a standardized approach to the national collection of mining statistics. The author, a mining engineer from the Bureau of Mines, was appointed alongside a committee of industry representatives to address the lack of uniformity in the reporting and classification of accidents being published at state level. By introducing universal forms for states to record and publish data relating to mine equipment, labor, and accidents, the book presents a detailed solution to the problem. It provides a directory of coal mines, metal mines, metallurgical plants and quarries, and outlines the steps needed to ensure that all mines, quarries and associated plants across the United States adhere to these new standards, enabling a true comparison of safety and efficiency metrics between organizations for the first time. The principles set out in this book were developed in response to the Federal income tax law of 1916, but remain a valuable resource for standardizing the collection of data in the mining industry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780259441267_0
