Coal mine workers often exposed to Environmental hazards that can lead to physical and mental health issues like heat stroke, respiratory issues, depression, and anxiety. These hazards include excessive temperatures, high humidity, poor air quality, and harmful gases, dust, and chemicals that can irritate the skin, create respiratory issues, as well as other health issues. The rising temperatures in underground mines include heat stress, dehydration, decreased output, equipment malfunctions and an elevated chance of accidents. This paper proposes a design of a detecting temperature, humidity level and leakage of gases in mines through EFR32MG Arduino technologies with features great reliability, smooth control and accuracy. This EFR32MG line of microcontrollers features built-in support for Thread, Bluetooth Low Energy, ZigBee and other wireless protocols. These microcontrollers are created for wireless applications that require minimal power and great performance. The voice system, which comprises a microphone and speaker, converts into a digital signal so that it may successfully interact wirelessly with the computer in the ground control Centre. The hardware worn by the mine worker and the ground control Centre both use ZigBee for this brief transmission. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
