The minutes of the Central Safety and Health Committee meetings shall be submitted to which officials?

• A. Director Only
• B. Director with Copy to Regional Director
• C. Regional Director
• D. Mine Manager

Answer: (B)

Submitting the minutes to the Director with a copy to the Regional Director ensures both central oversight and regional awareness. The central safety and health committee operates at the national level, so the Director receives the official record to review, authorize actions, and monitor overall compliance. At the same time, giving a copy to the Regional Director keeps regional management informed of safety issues, decisions, and deadlines so that local implementation and follow-up can occur. Sending to only one role would either bypass central accountability or regional coordination, and directing to a site manager would be inappropriate for formal records of a national committee.
