Abstract

Studies related to the mining regions are scarce, so this work provides insight into the regulatory framework that prevails over the coal mines and the authorities involved in its regulation, provision and inspection. Addresses the situation of the mines in Mexico and in the context of international law, such as the tragic events that have occurred. In the latter considered that little has been done in many countries for economic, social and technical aspects of the mining industry even though they have been raised on numerous occasions to international action on mining, such as that most countries must ratify the ILO Convention 176 on safety and health in mines.

Keywords:

Working in coal mines, the general conditions of hygiene and safety in mines, the labor rights of miners
