The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) is a U.S. Department of Labor agency established in 1977 under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act. It enforces mandatory safety and health standards across all U.S. mining and mineral processing operations, regardless of size.
MSHA conducts regular inspections, investigates accidents, assesses civil penalties for violations, and provides training programs to miners and operators. The agency aims to prevent fatalities, reduce injuries and illnesses, and promote safe working environments through compliance assistance, research, and cooperation with states and industry stakeholders.
