Mining templates

Frequently asked questions

What safety templates do mining operations need?

Mining operations require JSA (Job Safety Analysis) templates for each task, pre-start inspection checklists for all mobile plant and equipment, gas detection and calibration logs, confined space entry permits, take 5 risk assessments, toolbox talk records, incident and near miss reports, and corrective action forms. Under Australian mining regulations, these documents must be completed, retained and available for inspection by the regulator.

Are these templates suitable for underground mining?

Yes. The mining JSA template, confined space permits, gas detector logs and incident investigation forms are suitable for both underground and surface mining operations. Underground-specific hazards (ground stability, ventilation, self-rescuer requirements, explosive atmospheres) are covered in the mining JSA template and confined space permits.

Can I digitise these mining templates in MapTrack?

Yes. Every template can be digitised in MapTrack as a mobile form. Workers complete inspections on their phone by scanning the asset QR code, photos and GPS location are captured automatically, and supervisors can review and approve in real time. Digital forms are stored against the asset with a complete audit trail.

Are the templates free to download?

Yes. All mining templates are free to download and use. Enter your work email to access the PDF-ready template. No MapTrack account required. If you later want to digitise your mining forms, we offer a free 30-day trial.
