Landslides are the downward movement of rock, soil, debris, or earth materials along a slope due to the force of gravity. They are a major type of natural hazard and are closely linked with environmental and occupational hazards because they affect ecosystems, infrastructure, and human safety, especially for workers involved in mining, construction, road building, and hill agriculture. Landslides can occur suddenly or develop slowly over time, depending on the stability of the slope, geological structure, weather conditions, and human activities. They are common in mountainous regions, hilly terrains, and areas experiencing heavy rainfall or seismic activity. Landslides can cause loss of life, destruction of property, disruption of transport networks, and damage to natural habitats. From an environmental perspective, landslides contribute to soil erosion, deforestation, river blockage, and loss of biodiversity. From an occupational perspective, they pose serious risks to workers who operate in unstable terrain conditions. The causes of landslides are broadly divided into natural causes and human-induced causes. Natural causes include geological conditions, heavy rainfall, earthquakes, volcanic activity, and slope characteristics. One of the most important natural causes is the geological structure of the land. Some rocks and soils are naturally weak and easily eroded. For example, loose soil, weathered rock, or clay-rich soil absorbs water easily and loses strength, increasing the chances of slope failure. The angle of the slope also plays an important role. Steeper slopes are more prone to landslides because gravity exerts more force on materials resting on them. Over time, weathering processes such as temperature changes, wind erosion, and water erosion weaken rocks and soil, making slopes unstable. Heavy or prolonged rainfall is one of the most common triggers of landslides. When rainwater seeps into the soil, it increases the weight of the soil and reduces friction between soil particles. This makes it easier for soil and rock to slide downward. Flooding can also erode the base of slopes, removing support and triggering landslides. In regions with monsoon climates, repeated heavy rains often lead to frequent landslide events. Water saturation is particularly dangerous in areas with poor drainage
