The HSE Mining Learning Summit – Canada is The Global Series’ dedicated event for senior HSE and operations professionals working in mining and Canada’s high-hazard industrial sectors. Unlike a general OHS conference, it is built specifically around the challenges of leading safety in complex, remote and high-hazard Canadian operating environments — covering everything from serious injury prevention and human factors to psychological health, Indigenous workforce safety and the strategic role of the HSE function at leadership level. It runs over two days under Chatham House Rules, with one curated stream of content and Pulse AI-facilitated networking.

Mining and resource extraction present a category of HSE leadership challenge that is qualitatively different from general industry — and that difference deserves a dedicated forum. Remote site management, fly-in fly-out workforces, high-consequence extraction hazards, complex multi-contractor environments and the specific obligations around Indigenous community engagement are not well-served by a general OHS conference agenda. The HSE Mining Learning Summit is designed to go deep on the issues that actually define HSE leadership in this sector, with speakers, case studies and peer connections drawn from the mining and resources community itself.

Psychological health and safety is a defining priority for Canadian employers — shaped by the National Standard of Canada for Psychological Health and Safety in the Workplace and reflected in the growing regulatory and reputational expectations placed on organisations in mining and high-hazard industries. The HSE Mining Learning Summit addresses this directly, with sessions covering psychosocial risk in high-pressure operational environments, fatigue and stress management in remote and shift-based workforces, and the leadership behaviours that build psychologically safe cultures in sectors where speaking up about risk is often the hardest thing to do.

We are working to ensure the HSE Mining Learning Summit is recognised for professional development hours toward CRSP recertification through the Board of Canadian Registered Safety Professionals (BCRSP). Please check the event listing for current accreditation status, or contact us directly for the latest information. The learning objectives across our programme — spanning strategic leadership, risk management, human factors and psychological health — align closely with the competencies the BCRSP recognises for the CRSP designation.

The HSE Mining Learning Summit – Canada is the only Global Series event built around a specific industrial sector rather than a geographic market. Where the UK and North America summits serve a broad cross-industry HSE and operations leadership audience, the Canadian event goes deep on the challenges specific to mining and high-hazard industries — with content, speakers and case studies chosen for their direct relevance to that operational context. It is also the only Global Series event that specifically addresses Canada’s provincial regulatory complexity and the particular obligations around Indigenous workforce safety and community engagement that are central to responsible mining operations in Canada.
