Manpower and staffing in nuclear power plants
Conference

OSTI ID:5791065
Manpower and staffing requirements are seen by both nuclear industry regulators and the industry itself as central to maximizing safe operations. Since the Three Mile Island accident, attention has focused on how many people are needed to run plants safely, what their qualifications should be, and what work they are expected to perform - all focuses within the personnel subsystem of this safety model. Research projects being conducted at Battelle on these issues represent an integrated approach to the problem of identifying safety-related manpower levels, staffing practices, work schedules and staff qualifications. The purpose of this initial investigation was to describe manpower and staffing practices that reflect the approaches and activities that utilities use, and problems that they experience, in staffing their nuclear plants.
