Accident procedure

Ask yourself now are you familiar with accident procedures If not you should not be working in the lab. 

General laboratory rules and procedures Personal protection equipment requirements Spill and accident procedures Chemical storage rules and procedures Safety equipment requirements and inspection procedures Employee safety training requirements Exposure and medical evaluation processes Emergency evacuation plan... 

Level 3 Control of accidents included in the design basis. Engineered safety systems and accident procedures. 

Written procedures should be provided for all activities carried out by the operating staff, including normal operation of the plant and recovery from abnormal occurrences and accidents, including severe accidents. Procedures for response to abnormal occurrences and accidents should preferably be symptom oriented. The procedures should be validated by walk-throughs and the nse of mock-nps and simulators where appropriate. 

An event oriented accident procedure, which is entered after identifying the initiating event, consists principally of ... 

A symptom oriented accident procedure is entered independently of the initiating event or of the course the accident that has taken place to reach its current state. Therefore the description of the automatic measures is not included. The symptom oriented procedures are initiated after predefined criteria, which are based on a safety function being challenged, have been fulfilled. The procedures are carried out with the help of ... 

In addition, proper identification of the relevant sensors, alarms and actuators, especially with regard to post-incident or post-accident procedures, should be provided so as to ensure a safe transition to an adequately safe state. Further guidance on the approach to the development of OPs is provided in Appendix II. 

Severe accident procedures are generally not used, but in case of necessity their use is significant for safety in the plant and off site. Inadequate implementation of accident management procedures due to lack of training can increase the potential for radioactive releases. These procedures are important to prevent the progression of accidents as well as to mitigate the effects of any releases.
