1.4 PROBLEM CONSTRAINT AND ASSUMPTION

There are 4 aspects in good mining practice that should be considered, which are Mining Occupational Safety and Health K3, Mining Environmental Protection, Mining Added Value Improvement and Mining Conservation. These 4 aspects can be grouped into 2 main aspects, which are qualitative aspect K3 and Mining Added Value Improvement aspect and quantitative aspect Mining Environmental Protection and Mining Conservation. Since each aspect consists of many parameters that should be included in evaluating mining company performance, so this research will be constrained on qualitative aspects only, which are K3 and mining added value aspect. This research used assumption that there will be no bias value in scoring particular mining company; every evaluator will give the appropriate score to a mining company they scored. There will be no extreme condition where one evaluator gives a score contradictory to other evaluator. For example one evaluator gives 100 to particular component of good mining practice while others give 0 or 20 for the same component evaluated.
