Abstract
The purpose of this IC is to discuss how job analysis methods taken from different disciplines can be used together to form a more complete picture of jobs in the mining industry. The term 'job analysis' can be a method of breaking a job into tasks in order to find out the hazards involved, or a way to select tasks for combination or automation as jobs change with technology. Methods used to analyze jobs change from different viewpoints will be presented to give readers a choice of job analysis alternatives for use in their own companies.
