SAFE OPERATIONS
The program’s primary goal was to continue sharing best practices in underground mining to achieve our goals of
operational excellence. These included discussions relating to re-emphasis of our underground safety culture, mine rescue
protocols and drills, mine engineering and development, ground control, and other relevant topics.
This event speaks volumes about Martin Marietta’s values.
“Putting on an event like this requires a tremendous amount of time and resources, but from our corporate executives to
our division presidents and vice president-general managers, it’s supported at every level,” Bender said. “It’s the type of
event that really demonstrates our Company’s commitment to advancing our safety culture.”
The next Underground Mine Safety Conference is tentatively scheduled for 2022.
Nearly 70 of the Company’s
top underground
professionals gathered for
a two-day conference
in February 2020 in
Collinsville, Illinois.
