Guideline for the Compilation of a Mandatory Code of Practice for the Management of Self-contained Self-rescuers in Mines

Part B : Author's Guide

 

1. The COP must, where possible, follow the sequence laid out in Part C: Format and content of the mandatory COP. All headings, paragraphs and sub-paragraphs should be numbered to facilitate cross-referencing. Wording must be unambiguous and concise.

 

2. It should be indicated in the COP and on each annexure to the COP whether:
2.1. Mandatory annexures form part of the guideline, compliance is mandatory where indicated and must be incorporated in the COP.
2.2. Discretionary annexures are provided for information or for consideration in the preparation of the COP (i.e. compliance is optional).

 

3. When annexures are used the numbering should be preceded by the letter allocated to that particular annexure and the numbering should start at one (1) again. (e.g. 1, 2, 3, A1, A2, A3…).

 

4. Whenever possible illustrations, tables and graphs should be used to avoid long descriptions and/or explanations.

 

5. When reference has been made in the text to publications or reports, references to these sources must be included in the text as footnotes or side notes as well as in a separate bibliography.
