What is issued to contractors upon receipt of required information?

The Contractor Identification Number is a unique identifier assigned to contractors upon submission of the necessary information. This number serves multiple purposes, including tracking contractor activities, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements, and facilitating communication between the contractor and regulatory bodies. It plays a crucial role in identifying the contractor within the system and is necessary for operational processes such as bidding on jobs and obtaining permits.

Having a Contractor Identification Number makes it easier for authorities to monitor compliance with safety standards, financial obligations, and other regulatory requirements specific to contractors in the mining industry. It acts as an official recognition that the contractor has met all prerequisites to operate within the sector, streamlining administrative processes and enhancing oversight.
