Confined spaces, heavy equipment, explosions…even to the layperson, it’s fairly obvious there are multiple hazards in the mining industry.

It’s the connection with people that Monique Parker has found to be so fascinating in the mining profession, especially when the environment and the people you’re working with are changing all the time. Even more fascinating is how the lessons learned in mining has helped Monique in her involvement with the American Society of Safety Professionals, especially now as she moves into her new role as President of ASSP. From community involvement to career advancement, there’s a lot to uncover (unearth?) in this episode!
