Newcrest Mining: 793C Automated Handrail System [2022 HSEC FINALIST]

Cadia Valley Operations maintains a fleet of 793C Haul Trucks. Team members need to access the rear section of the truck during maintenance work, a challenging and hazardous task working at height.

Cadia Valley Operations developed a purpose-built automatically deploying handrail system that eliminates exposure to possible falls from heights.

Previously, team members had to wear a safety harness connected to part of the vehicle to install handrails using an overhead crane.

These changes mean the team at Cadia Valley Operations can get their work done safely, and more efficiently, with no incidents recorded since this new system was implemented.

Watch this video to learn more about the system, which has been selected as a finalist in the Safety category at this year’s NSW Mining Health, Safety, Environment and Community Awards.
