                       TITLE 30--MINERAL RESOURCES
 
  CHAPTER I--MINE SAFETY AND HEALTH ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
 
PART 50--NOTIFICATION, INVESTIGATION, REPORTS AND RECORDS OF ACCIDENTS, INJURIES, ILLNESSES, EMPLOYMENT, AND COAL PRODUCTION IN MINES--Table of Contents
 
       Subpart C--Reporting of Accidents, Injuries, and Illnesses
 
Sec. 50.20-2  Criteria--``Transfer to another job.''

    ``Transfer to another job'' means transfers, either temporary, or 
permanent, which are occasioned by a work-related injury or illness. 
Permanent or temporary transfers to remove miners from further exposure 
to health hazards are considered preventative in nature and are not 
required to be reported. Controlling the amount of exposure to radiation 
during some period of time is one example. Transfer of a coal miner to a 
less dusty area of a mine when the miner elects to exercise rights under 
Section 203(b) of the Federal Coal Mine Health and Safety Act of 1969 is 
another example.
