it reminded me of Apocalypto when they arrived at the city and the guy spit up blood.

The way the salt mines are run reminds me of the old 19th century railroad robber-barons who would house and feed their workers at an insanely inflated price to keep them under the yoke of debt. Six families would live in a house meant for one which had one cold water tap and a single toilet in the basement. It was degrading and humiliating to work for them, just like these poor salt miners. Unable to change their fate. I now have a new understanding of the phrase: "back to the salt mines!" as a quip when feeling tired and/or overworked. I don't think that I'll be using that phrase anymore...

As a supervisor the most challenging part of the job was to enforce use of safety equipment. Workers would take off equipment every time I turned my back.

Much respect to the lady carrying coal. Americans have no idea about surviving. Salt of the earth people

The working conditions are very bad. But it also feels like they also can’t afford to improve the process which is really bad. But does this mean with the now reduction of oil and gas especially the sulfur will have to be mined again like this?

They have to earn a living and they have been doing so for thousands of years. HOWEVER the real story of mining is very very different. Large industrial scale western mining is NOT dangerous. It far less dangerous than for example construction where death and injury is surprisingly common. A single injury gets reported and investigated no matter how minor. A death is a very grave issue and entire mining operations are closed by the companies during investigation. Only a small portion of teh world's minerals are derived from artisanal miners and jobs with western mining companies in developing countries are highly sought after as they pay more, the team members are all treated with respect and health and safety are paramount. In addition all western companies participate in community programs often in the same communities where the team members live, creating pride in their business.

For example the coal in india, while the workers only get a tiny amount of money compared to workers in the us, the productivity due to automation is so much higher that the coal is cheaper per ton than the indian coal.

The situation of these miners is grim and could easily be improved with different incentives in the markets. That being said, the reporter and the portrayal of these conditions is obviously oblivious to hard labor and see the world through rose lenses. It sounds privileged and unaware of the day to day for many in labor jobs. Work is hard and you better be hardcore to build a society.
