Mid-Year MSHA Update and FMSHRC Significant Decision Review
Halfway through 2023, it is time to once again take stock of what we have learned about MSHA’s priorities and trends to date. We will further examine which decisions from the Federal Mine Safety & Health Review Commission will be most impactful for operators and the agency.

This webinar will look at what has transpired at MSHA 2023, including enforcement, new initiatives, and/or rulemaking. Additionally, it will review significant case decisions that have come down from the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission (FMSHRC) and its Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) that will impact the mining industry.

Participants in this webinar will learn the following:

• MSHA enforcement trends and initiatives through mid-2023
• FMSHRC decisions impacting mine operators and independent contractors
• Strategies to prepare operations for changing enforcement tactics and standard interpretations
