Labor management challenges in the
nuclear energy and utilities industry
An aging workforce coupled with highly technical roles that are tough to fill mean that the industry needs to find creative ways to attract new talent. This is easier said than done, as the nuclear sector is working against a negative public perception of outdated technology and dangerous conditions.
The mandated fatigue management rules outlined by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) add even further complexity. It is difficult to balance a skills shortage with maximum work hour limits and minimum break rules, since the work needs to get done; a single violation can cost up to $303,471.
Areas of opportunity
- Hire those without a nuclear background and track upskilling and re-training efforts in a centralized employee qualification management system
- Leverage a mobile app that allows employees to view and interact with their schedules as a recruitment tool
- Automate previously manual administrative processes so that coverage can be applied to more critical areas
Compliance concerns
- NRC requirements surrounding fatigue management and fitness-for-duty programs
- Maximum hour work rules, minimum break rules, online minimum day off rules during an evaluation period, 54 hour average per week rules during an evaluation period, and outage rules—all need to be accounted for per employee at the point of scheduling
- Centralized recordkeeping on waiver counts, violations, and other pertinent information needed for annual reporting
