| Title | Failure to Provide Adequate Instruction to Pregnant Workers |
| Description | The inspectors identified a noncited violation of 10 CFR 19.12 for failure to provide adequate instruction to declared pregnant workers. Specifically, the licensee did not provide adequate information concerning the potential health protection problems and risk associated with exposure of an embryo/fetus to radiation and/or radioactive materials. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR 2009-5854. The inspectors determined that the failure to provide adequate instruction to declared pregnant workers is a performance deficiency. The finding is more than minor because it is associated with the occupational radiation safety cornerstone attribute and adversely affects the objective to ensure adequate protection of worker health and safety from exposure to radiation during routine civilian nuclear reactor operation. Using the Occupational Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process, the inspectors determined this finding to be of very low safety significance because the finding did not involve ALARA planning and work controls, did not result in an overexposure, did not present a substantial potential for overexposure, and did not compromise the licensees ability to assess dose. Additionally, the finding had a crosscutting aspect in the area of human performance, resources component, because the licensee failed to ensure the procedures related to declared pregnant workers included adequate instructions concerning the increased health concerns related to radiation exposure to the embryo/fetus H.2(c) (Section 2OS2) |
