The criteria for awarding the trophies also take into account improvements in a facility\u2019s performance, its performance compared to the industry average, and the combined accident rate based on pre-determined target values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u00ab For the QMA, which was founded in 1936 to improve the health and safety record in mines, it is important to recognize the exemplary commitment and involvement of mining companies and their employees in workplace health and safety. This is why, for the last 55 years, the QMA has presented its F.J. O\u2019Connell trophies to highlight the individual efforts made to ensure a safer workplace for all. Mining companies have focused on prevention, and the results speak for themselves. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00ab During the COVID-19 pandemic, the health and safety of workers and their families have come under even greater scrutiny. Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s mines have been able to introduce public health measures while maintaining their emphasis on precautions as a way to avoid accidents. We can be proud of their efforts, which demonstrate once again that workplace health and safety is taken very seriously in Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s mines. \u00bb<\/p>\n<cite>&#8211; Jos\u00e9e M\u00e9thot, QMA President and CEO<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Qu\u00e9bec Mining Association<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Qu\u00e9bec Mining Association (QMA) was founded in 1936 and speaks proactively for mining companies involved in exploration, extraction and processing, mining contractors and junior mining companies, along with suppliers, institutions, non-profit organizations and other mining sector partners.
