1. INTRODUCTION
1.1
Purpose
This guide, used in conjunction with a facility-specific job analysis, provides a framework for
the selection, training, qualification, and professional development of reactor facility and
non-reactor nuclear facility shift supervisors. Training and qualification programs based on this
guide should provide assurance that shift supervisors perform their jobs safely and
competently.
The shift supervisor is the senior management representative on shift who is responsible for
the safe operation of the facility. This responsibility typically includes direct supervision of
operations department personnel and functional supervision of maintenance personnel and
technicians, especially during backshifts and holidays. The shift supervisor is responsible for
overall facility safety, personnel safety, coordination of facility activities, and facility operation
during the assigned shift. The shift supervisor requires a broad perspective of facility
operations and a high degree of proficiency when interacting with people to implement facility
policies and procedures. In addition, the responsibilities of the shift supervisor normally
include the following:
C remaining in a supervisory role and avoiding activities that could detract from the primary
responsibility of maintaining oversight of activities, particularly during abnormal and
emergency operations
C making conservative decisions as the senior facility manager on shift, with protection of the
health and safety of personnel and the public being of highest priority
C promoting teamwork and using effective communications while supervising the control
room team and during interactions with all personnel who support facility operations
C supporting and instilling the commitment to excellence established by the management
team during day-to-day activities
C applying the lessons learned from in-house and industry operating experience to facility
operations
C becoming actively involved in operations personnel qualification, requalification, and
training to ensure that operators are properly trained to established standards and qualified
to perform their assigned tasks
C having initiative and perseverance in planning and carrying out scheduled facility activities;
thinking ahead so that these activities can be accomplished in an orderly, efficient, and
conservative fashion
