Procedures and Training

The training requirements for new and existing SOPs should be described. 

The contents of validation packages to be produced should be defined, together with the identification of document management and control procedures to be used. Any special requirements need to be specified and clearly understood. 

Particular attention should be paid to initiators which lead to common mode failures during shutdown modes, for example  

Training of NPP staff and contractors is required to communicate that understanding outage risk is very important to shutdown safety. Training activities can increase the understanding of the plant personnel and contractors of the safety issues related to conduct of outage. Many reported events were caused by staff and contractors who were not well-trained. 

Many plants have introduced shutdown safety as a special topic for the pre-outage training of staff. This training should also cover risk during the outage, radiation protection, fire protection, industrial safety emergency planning, radioactive treatment and decontamination. 

It is recommended that control room operators and maintenance personnel be provided with adequate training on both the risk significant events, and their prevention and mitigation.

In addition, a properly designed JHA is a good learning tool that you can use to evaluate incidents. Job-related incidents occur every day in the workplace. These incidents, which include injuries and fatalities, often occur because employees are not trained in the proper job procedures. One way to reduce these workplace incidents is to develop proper job procedures and train all employees in the safer and more efficient work methods.

The main factors found to be affecting the decision to blowdown manually were the blowdown philosophy, procedures, and training. Factors affecting the efficiency of the decision making process and the execution of blowdown were the ergonomics of the information presentation in the control room communications, and various aspects of the hardware. 

The various elements of the error management program such as the development of high quality procedures and training and effective feedback and communications systems need to be supported by policies and standards to implement these policies. The development of these policies is an important strategic aspect of the implementation process. 

Troubleshooting deals with identifying and solving problems. Problems can be immediate or long term and can be associated with off-spec products, poor efficiency, process improvements, capacity increases, or potential shutdown items. Problems can be related to management, operation, hardware and equipment, or process issues. Solutions can include improved operating procedures and training, preventative maintenance, or installation of new equipment or controls. 

Member companies are required to have programs to manage reactive hazards that address, at a minimum, hazard identification, hazard evaluation, management of change, inherently safer design, and adequate procedures and training. 

Incident data in Section 3.0 show that more than half of the reactive incidents, where some causal information is available, are attributed to inadequate operating procedures and training. These data illustrate the challenge of effectively communicating a practical, working knowledge of an often complex array of chemical and process information.
