In mining industry, there is a particular need for a sound approach to the process of risk and business continuity management with ultimate goal the continuity of mining operations in case of unplanned events’ materialization. In this context, many functions within large mining companies have a significant risk component to their activities. Emphasis is placed on the type of threats that could cause serious loss of production and even jeopardize the operational continuity. In order to cover a wide spectrum of threats and hazards, an organization could approach their assessment and handling through the implementation of certifiable management system standards, such as ISO 22301, OHSAS 18001 and ISO 14001. The objective of this paper is to show the gains and the simplicity of development and implementation of a certifiable Integrated Management System in complex and risky activities in order to form a robust and sustainable business continuity and risk management framework which could face a wide range of risks that might prohibit operational continuity, such as production risks, health and safety risks and environmental risks. Through the integration of management systems large companies could achieve economies of scale and avoid duplication of efforts in assessing and handling the vast variety of threats. The integrated management system formulates a platform on which an organization can base a plethora of management systems containing threat assessment and management requirements such as ISO 28000 (Supply Chain Management) and ISO 39001 (Road Traffic Safety). The implementation of an Integrated Management System could help mines and other industries as well, to comply with the regulations and to operate safely and reliably.
