As digitization takes center stage in the mining industry, the nature of work and the employment landscape are poised to change dramatically over the coming years. The digital mine envisions that the core operational processes of the future mining value chain will be highly automated, thereby reducing labor intensity and reshaping the demographics of workforces, at both the mine site and in the back office. The sector will need to rethink how it attracts and retains talent to keep pace with the ongoing digital revolution that has the potential to make mining operations safer and more efficient than ever before. In this post, we look at the implications of digitization on the mining workforce.

In this 3-part blog series, we discuss some of the digital innovations in mining that, over the next decade, have the potential to revolutionize operations and deliver exceptional shareholder, customer and environmental value.

In part 1 of this series, we looked at advances in automation and robotics in the mining industry. In this post, we focus on connected worker technologies and remote operations.
