The paper presents the results of MINTOS RFCS project and announces conception of new Augmented Reality system that will be developed in EMIMSAR RFCS project. Current KOMAG's solutions in the field of improving occupational safety are presented in the paper. Training programs that are developed are an innovative solution in the field of training. Development of workers' competences during training with use of Augmented Reality and RFID technologies is realized on a real machine, which will be used at work by training participants in the future. Training conducted directly at the workplace develops both knowledge and practical skills. Apart from construction and principle of operation also machines, safe work methods developing manual skills and safe behaviour are presented during the training. Augmented Reality technology enables superposition of computer image on a real object, which makes possible development of proper workers' behaviour during machine breakdown. Applying the AR technology in the industry enables to increase safety during work the risk of making a mistake is minimized. Scenarios of training on mobile stands with use of AR technology are strongly connected with real work conditions, in real work environment. RFID technology enables to relate knowledge resources to each mining machine, what simplifies and improves applying the knowledge resources during training. RFID technology can be applied during training conducted in unfavourable conditions in the mine underground as well as in real operation conditions. Applying the RFID technology to aid mining machines maintenance is presented in the context of delivering information about current technical condition of a machine and delivering knowledge about proper maintenance of a machine at the work site.
