September Safety Banquet Honors

Safe Employees

“I’ve been mining since 1970,” began Dave Rascon as the standing ovation quieted.

“Mining’s always been good to me; RMGC has been especially good to me,” he told the

banquet room. Dave was awarded the top award of the night for 35 years of safe work-

ing and announced his retirement. Several colleagues thanked Dave by sharing memo-

ries of early truck shop days. Congratulations, Dave, and enjoy your retirement. See

more banquet attendees on pages 2, 3, 4, & 10.

“Safety is fickle. What is the key thing that’s made the difference? We must be focused at critical moments of

the task. Safety is successful when we deal with hazards at the lowest levels. Safety is a fundamental core of

our work expectation. You’re all a big part of working and thinking that way.” Neil Jensen, RMGC GM/Pres

payroll, and much more!

This week’s HR Corner is

brought to you by Amy Arnold.

Amy is the HR Business Partner

for the Maintenance group, and

she is the go-to gal for all things

payroll. Amy has been with Kin-

Feeling Fatigued?

Lack of sleep is not the only issue that leads to fatigue.

Stress, life changes, poor diet, lack of exercise,

lifestyle choices and medical conditions are all contrib-

uting factors when considering fatigue. The

effects of fatigue can include slower reaction time,

increased errors and decreased cognitive ability.

7 simple ways YOU can combat fatigue:

1. Take a deep breath. Deep breathing helps deliver

oxygen to your cells and nutrients to your blood-

stream.

2. Get active! Exercise has consistently been linked

to improved energy and overall quality of life.

3. Drink plenty of water. Sufficient Hydration is a

main source of energy for the body.

4. Eat small, frequent meals. Eating smaller meals

more regularly will help regulate your blood glu-

cose levels, as well as gradually increasing ener-

gy.

5. Listen to music. Turn up the music, let go, dance

and sing at the top of your lungs.

6. Embrace optimism. A negative outlook is a huge

energy drain and is often associated with poor

productivity levels.

7. Go to bed earlier and shut down the information

overload! Our media culture offers up sensory

experiences that don’t nourish us even when they

seem pleasurable. Too much stimulation can leave

you feeling depleted and fatigued.
