The criteria for the awards also take improved performance, performance compared to the industry average, and the combined accident rate into account using 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 class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00ab The QMA, which was founded in 1936 in order to improve the health and safety record in mines, believes in the importance of recognizing the commitment and exemplary efforts made by mining companies and their employees with respect to workplace health and safety. For this reason, for the last 54 years the QMA has presented F.J. O\u2019Connell trophies to highlight the efforts made to create a safe working environment for all. Mining companies have focused on prevention, and this is reflected in the results achieved. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00ab During the COVID-19 pandemic, the health and safety of employees and their families has become a primary concern. Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s mines have been able to combine the implementation of public health measures with an ongoing precautionary focus on accident prevention. We can be proud of the effort made by Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s mining companies, which show once again that WHS is taken very seriously by the mining community. \u00bb<\/p>\n<cite>&#8211; Jos\u00e9e M\u00e9thot, pr\u00e9sidente-directrice g\u00e9n\u00e9rale de l\u2019AMQ<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>About the Qu\u00e9bec Mining Association<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">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.
