Training opportunities available to more than 250 operational employees at Banks Mining have been significantly enhanced through a major investment in a new bespoke licensing scheme. The family-owned firm is introducing a new modular training programme to provide a framework through which skills and career development opportunities can be extended and improved to the benefit of both employees and the business. The scheme aims to go beyond current minerals industry standards by offering plant operators the chance to broaden their knowledge and experience in the safe, responsible and efficient ways of working with new site designs, equipment and techniques. As part of the project, Banks Mining have invested in a full-time trainer to lead the new scheme as well as new on-site training facilities at their Shotton surface mine in south-east Northumberland.
