摘要

Abstract

Today, the coal mining industry is continuously developing in many countries. However, industrial safety standards are not always observed when working in underground mines. Unfortunately, the results of the literature review indicate high risks in coal mining enterprises. The human factor is the main cause of occupational injuries. At the same time, the high concentration of hazardous chemical compounds in coal dust triggers a wide range of occupational respiratory diseases in workers. This brief review aims to identify the causes of accidents at enterprises and examine current innovative technologies for preventing hazardous situations. It is shown that digital transformation technologies are currently most actively used in coal mining companies.
