Description
Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station has developed and successfully integrated a knowledge management approach into their strategic human capital management systems. This approach integrates knowledge management strategies into organizational assessments/business planning, workforce analytics, talent selection and development, and organizational key performance indicators. The presentation will provide the attendees with a practical approach to understanding how Palo Verde implemented the elements of an integrated human capital approach to managing knowledge, skills and the competencies to safely operate a nuclear power plant. The management of this process is accomplished through the utilization of a “People Health Committee” governance and oversight process. The higher level strategy has also been incorporated in to the Palo Verde Leadership Model for long-term sustainability. This approach has yielded several “Strengths” from the Institution of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO). The development of these processes are linked to the various supporting IAEA documents:
1. MANAGING HUMAN RESOURCES IN THE FIELD OF NUCLEAR ENERGY
IAEA NUCLEAR ENERGY SERIES NO. NG-G-2.1
2. RECRUITMENT, QUALIFICATION AND TRAINING OF PERSONNEL FOR NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS
SAFETY STANDARDS SERIES NO. NS-G-2.8
3. WORKFORCE PLANNING FOR NEW NUCLEAR POWER PROGRAMMES, NUCLEAR ENERGY SERIES, NO. NG-T-6.2
4. THE NUCLEAR POWER INDUSTRY’S AGEING WORKFORCE: TRANSFER OF KNOWLEDGE TO THE NEXT GENERATION, IAEA TECDOC 1399
5. KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT FOR NUCLEAR INDUSTRY OPERATING ORGANIZATIONS, IAEA TECDOC 1510
6. RISK MANAGEMENT OF KNOWLEDGE LOSS IN NUCLEAR INDUSTRY ORGANIZATIONS, STI/PUB/1248
