Explosives management involves the systematic handling, storage, transportation, and disposal of explosive materials to ensure safety, security, and regulatory compliance. It involves protocols, procedures, and technologies to minimise the risks associated with explosives, such as accidental detonations, unauthorised access, theft, or diversion for illicit purposes. Effective explosives management typically includes measures for risk assessment, training, monitoring, and enforcement of relevant laws and regulations to safeguard people, property, and the environment.
