Download or read book Nuclear Safety and Nuclear Security Interface written by International Atomic Energy Agency and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Nuclear safety and nuclear security share the same goal: to protect individuals, the public and the environment from harmful effects of ionizing radiation. However, the activities that address nuclear safety and nuclear security are different, and actions taken to strengthen nuclear safety may affect nuclear safety and nuclear security positively or negatively, and vice versa. It is therefore essential to establish a well coordinated approach to managing the interface between nuclear safety and nuclear security so that relevant measures are implemented in a manner that aims to capitalize on opportunities that may be available for mutual enhancement without compromising either nuclear safety or nuclear security. The responsibility for nuclear safety and nuclear security within a State rests entirely with that State. In this context, the importance of international cooperation and the central role of the IAEA is widely recognized. The IAEA assists Member States in establishing or strengthening their nuclear safety infrastructure as well as their nuclear security infrastructure. In addition, it provides support to establish synergy between both infrastructures to ensure that actions taken in the two fields compliment rather than compromise each other. The interface between nuclear safety and nuclear security is highlighted in IAEA safety standards and nuclear security guidance. This publication was developed from the exchange of information, experiences and practices by participating Member States at the IAEA Technical Meeting on Safety and Security Interface -- Approaches and National Experiences, held in Vienna in 2018. The information presented in this publication summarizes the views expressed by the participants during the technical meeting; it is not a consensus report" --from the Foreword.

Download or read book Risk Management of Knowledge Loss in Nuclear Industry Organizations written by and published by IAEA. This book was released on 2006 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maintaining nuclear competencies in the nuclear industry and nuclear regulatory authorities will be one of the most critical challenges in the near future. As many nuclear experts around the world are retiring, they are taking with them a substantial amount of knowledge and corporate memory. The loss of such employees who hold knowledge critical to both operations and safety poses a clear internal threat to the safe and reliable operation of nuclear facilities. This publication is intended for senior and middle level managers of nuclear industry operating organizations and provides practical information on knowledge loss risk management. The information provided in this publication is based upon actual experiences of member state operating organizations and is intended to increase awareness of the need to develop a strategic approach and action plans to address the potential loss of critical knowledge and skills; to provide processes and, in conducting risk assessments, to determine the potential for loss of critical knowledge caused by the loss of experienced workers; and to enable nuclear organizations to utilize this knowledge to improve the skill and competence of new and existing workers. --Publisher's description.

Download or read book Human and Organizational Factors in Nuclear Safety written by Gregory Rolina and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-08-30 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the specifics of safety regulations regarding nuclear risk and the safety of nuclear installations. The author shows that (French) regulations concerning nuclear safety depend on maintaining a technical dialogue between the ASN, IRSN and nuclear operators. In the face of an ongoing European and global re-evaluation of the safety of nuclear power and alignment towards the Anglo-Saxon standard, the French approach may yet be able to make a significant contribution. This work will be of interest to all involved in nuclear power engineering and in the field of risk management and nuclear safety.
