368 / AW-TT01 — CRITICAL HAZARDS & CREW ACCOUNTABILITY

WHY THIS RAIL-SIDE SAFETY TALK MATTERS

A contractor entering a rail siding must know if track occupation was released, shunting is prohibited and trains are segregated from the workface. AW-TT01 is the one-page critical-hazard toolbox talk for mine rail loadout, bulk dispatch, stackers and reclaimers. It links the crew's exposure to the actual railway authority and equipment controls before work starts.

SIX SOURCE-DEFINED CREW CONTROLS

1) Rail-infrastructure authority releases track occupation and movement prohibition. 2) Segregate shunting, stockyard traffic and conveyor routes from the crew. 3) Positively isolate wagon-loading chute, stacker/reclaimer and tripper motions. 4) Identify overhead traction, crossings and traction-return electrical hazards. 5) Control unstable stockpiles, engulfment and suspended reclaimer access. 6) Evidence track gauge, switches, signalling and weighbridge calibrations. The first control is formal occupation authority, not a verbal assurance.

WHO PRESENTS IT, WHERE AND WHEN

Brief exposed workers at the siding, crossing, loadout, stockpile or reclaim interface before first entry or a changed shift or rail possession. The presenter confirms the authorised rail controller, movement boundary, required isolations and possible train or reclaimer approach. A machine that appears stopped can still expose crew members to uncontrolled movement or electrical traction.

COMPLETE AND RETAIN THE EDITABLE WORD FORM

Fill MINE / AREA / DATE / SHIFT and PERMIT / PRESENTER. Discuss all six printed controls against current rail and mine procedures, and log open actions in the relevant workpack. The original A4 DOCX has 16 NAME / EMPLOYEE OR ACCESS NO. and SIGNATURE attendance rows. Have each briefed worker sign and retain the record alongside track possession, isolation and shift-safety evidence.

STOP, WITHDRAW AND MINE CONTROL

The source STOP / WITHDRAW / NOTIFY MINE CONTROL rule applies to uncontrolled train movement, unstable stockpiles, live traction or missing rail possession. Withdraw; don't assume a train or reclaimer is isolated. Only a mine-authorised official may release the affected area or system. This talk grants no rail possession or operating permission.
