MSHA Individual Identification Number (MIIN) |
The U.S. Department of Labor's Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) will issue a new MSHA Individual Identification Number - or MIIN - to industry personnel who apply to the agency for specific qualification, certification and instructor credentials.
Effective April 21, 2008, individuals who apply for, or need to update, their MSHA qualification, certification or instructor credentials must first register to receive a new MIIN. The MIIN is a unique eight-digit number preceded by the letter "M" that will replace the Social Security Number to identify these individuals in MSHA's records.
