Stone Mining is an essential industry globally, supplying raw materials for construction and infrastructure projects. However, poor safety protocols in the industry have led to numerous accidents, resulting in loss of life, injuries, and environmental damage. This research article examines the causes and consequences of inadequate safety measures in stone quarries, identifying key areas where improvements are necessary. By exploring the relationship between poor safety protocols and accidents, the study offers recommendations for enhancing safety standards and reducing the risks associated with stone quarrying.
