Cliffs assigns senior managers, directly reporting to each site’s respective general manager, to safety leadership roles at all Cliffs mines. Our Safety Leadership Team helps to ensure that a high level of awareness is maintained and necessary actions are implemented. In 2006 alone, Cliffs trained new safety auditors as well as 40 Safety Leadership Team members and site-based managers in Zero Incident Process (ZIP) safety techniques, plus certified and accredited 25 more Mine Safety officers, bringing the total number of safety professionals to 31 across the group.
