DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Based on Bureau of Labor Statistics and Energy Information Administration projections, the mining industry is expected to grow and diversify its workforce over the next ten years due to expanding opportunities for exploration and production, retirement of veteran miners, and a generation of new and foreign workers. Significant and immediate labor needs will attract younger, inexperienced employees who represent a change in culture and increased risk in the safety and health environment. With fatality and injury rates declining in the past due to strengthened regulation, enforcement and training, employers are encouraged to continue seeking ways to reach a "zero" culture in order to sustain these improvements. These challenges present the need for refined training approaches and the capture of worker experience so critical to the mentor - prot�g� relationships that readily exist i the mines. The University of Texas at Arlington (UTA) team proposes to design, produce and deliver a Leadership Development Course for 1st Line Supervisors to address the immediate needs of supervisors facing a new dimension of workers. By incorporating best practice adult learning principles and a systems approach, the course will focus on the fundamental development of leaders in the mining workforce, strengthening existing on-the-job-training (OJT) practices with train-the-trainer (T3) concepts, and enabling the occupational culture to pursue a prevention practice that will move the industry closer to accomplishing "zero". In addition, this proposal will produce and distribute a new documentary titled Fire in the Wilberg Mine which occurred in 1984 with the loss of twenty-seven Utah miners. Through interviews with workers who directly experienced and investigated the disaster, this documentary will facilitate the transfer of knowledge by communicating those events to the audience. We will draw from an experienced team of trainers and video documentary producers to successfully deliver these new training products to miners in the Western U.S. over the three year project period.

描述（由适用提供）：根据劳工统计和能源信息管理局的项目，由于扩大勘探和生产的机会，退伍军人的退休机会以及一代新的新工人，预计采矿业将在未来十年内增长和多样化其劳动力。重大和即时的劳动需求将吸引年轻，经验不足的员工，这些员工代表了文化的变化并增加了安全和健康环境中的风险。由于加强监管，执法和培训，过去的死亡和伤害率下降，鼓励员工继续寻求达到“零”文化的方法，以维持这些改进。这些挑战表明需要进行精致的培训方法和对工人经验的捕获，这对矿山很容易存在的心理关系至关重要。德克萨斯大学阿灵顿分校（UTA）团队的建议，为第一线主管设计，制作和提供领导力发展课程，以满足面对工人新维度的主管的直接需求。通过纳入最佳实践成人学习原理和系统方法，该课程将集中在采矿劳动力中领导者的基本发展上，以使用火车培训者（T3）概念来加强现有的在职培训（OJT）实践，并使职业文化能够追求一种将行业迈进的实践，以使行业接近实现“零”。此外，该提案将制作并分发一部名为《威尔伯格矿场火灾》的新纪录片，该纪录片发生在1984年，损失了二十七个犹他州矿工。通过与直接经历和调查灾难的工人的访谈，该纪录片将通过向观众传达这些事件来促进知识的转移。我们将从经验丰富的培训师和视频纪录片制作人组成的团队中汲取灵感，以成功地将这些新的培训产品交付给美国西部的三年项目期间。
