When answering this question, focus on a specific instance where you identified a safety hazard in a mining operation. Describe the context and the nature of the hazard. Explain the steps you took to address the hazard, including any immediate actions to ensure safety and any long-term measures to prevent recurrence. Highlight your knowledge of safety regulations and your ability to work under pressure. For example:
"In my previous role, I noticed that a section of the mine had inadequate ventilation, which posed a risk of gas buildup. I immediately reported the issue to the site manager and recommended temporary evacuation of the area. I then worked with the engineering team to design and implement a new ventilation system that met safety standards. This not only resolved the immediate hazard but also improved overall air quality in the mine."
