It reviews various proposals from the leading voices in the industry, as well as government regulators, on how to improve the training, working conditions, and retention of experienced white miners in the face of manpower drain caused by the first World War and other factors. The author provides historical context for the current challenges facing the industry by addressing the evolution of the so-called "learner" system on the mines and its impact on training standards. The author concludes by noting that industry and government leaders are actively developing and implementing new strategies to address this critical challenge.
