safety culture in nuclear facilities

Safety culture in nuclear facilities refers to the collective mindset and practices that prioritize safety above all else. It involves every employee—from operators to management—being committed to following strict safety protocols, openly reporting concerns, and continuously learning to prevent accidents. This culture fosters an environment where safety is integrated into daily operations, decision-making, and communication, reducing risks associated with nuclear processes. Ultimately, a strong safety culture ensures that safety becomes an inherent part of the organization’s identity, protecting workers, the public, and the environment from potential hazards.
