Who Should Take ILT MSHA PART 46 New Miner & Newly Hired Experienced Miner Annual Refresher Training 8-hour Required Training

This refresher is designed for miners working at surface mines, surface areas of underground mines, sand and gravel operations, crushed stone quarries, portable plants, and surface cement and lime operations covered by 30 CFR Part 46. Newly hired experienced miners, seasoned equipment operators, laborers, plant operators, blasters, and maintenance technicians all fit the audience definition.

Site safety managers, MSHA-approved Part 46 competent persons, production supervisors, and contractors performing services at Part 46 operations will find the refresher useful for maintaining their own currency and for auditing their crews ahead of an MSHA inspection. Human resources coordinators enrolling new hires can document the newly hired experienced miner training requirement, and purchasing staff can use the class roster to coordinate annual refreshers across multiple operating sites.

Anyone designated as an experienced miner under 30 CFR 46.2 who has worked at a surface mine within the previous 36 months should complete this eight-hour annual refresher to remain in compliance. Contractors, truck drivers delivering to the mine site on a regular basis, and shop mechanics assigned to field repairs should also complete the program so the mine operator has current Form 5000-23 documentation on file for every person expected to be on the property.

Prerequisites

Learners should have prior new miner training under 30 CFR Part 46.5 or newly hired experienced miner training under 46.6, or documentation of work at a surface mining operation within the previous 36 months. A copy of the site-specific Part 46 written training plan should be available to the instructor so the refresher can address changes since the last training cycle.

No specialized credential is required to enroll; however, the designated trainer delivering the live portion must be MSHA-approved under 30 CFR 46.4. A modern browser, reliable internet connection, and a device with audio are the only technical requirements for the online portions of the eight-hour program.
