Construction and mining technology can enhance operators' proficiency and data collection, but it also raises concerns about potential complacency and reduced skilled effort. The ongoing discussion about technology's rapid advancement in the construction and mining industries raises questions about the necessary skills for achieving desired outcomes. While some argue that technology may lead to complacency among operators, others maintain that it enhances efficiency. Regardless of the debate, all types of work require a fundamental level of education and skills to follow specific procedures and achieve desired results. A combination of traditional skills and technology-integrated training can pave the way for increased productivity in various sectors.

Technology advancements in civil and mining gear has allowed operators to function better with reduced fatigue. I remember the comments from the 16H operators whem they first got in a 16M. Those same operators after 6mths in it would not want to hop back in a H full time.

2moIn our experience the technology absolutely enhances the efficiency by which the work “can” be completed. However if you don’t invest in training the operator, your investment is only returning you 40% (at best) of its true value / potential. Invest in the system - learn the system. They go hand in hand.
