WORK RULES Subcategory Report 70200 Executive Summary This subcategory included 235 employee concerns which raised 10 issues.
The general areas of concern were the application and the content of work rules and policies.
Issues included varying standards of work rule application among organizations and managers and differing interpretation of work rules by employees and management.
The evaluation found that inconsistencies in application of work rules do exist throughout Office of Nuclear Power (ONP) organizations.
Additionally, the content of some work rules are vague enough to cause misunderstandings that lead to differing interpretations by employees and management, Inconsistencies between sets of work rules/policies used by different organizations caused a great deal of resentment among workers.
That resentment was compounded by seemingly arbitrary disciplinary actions that were based on individual, and varying, interpretations of the rules.
Such a
situation, if allowed to persist, could have a significant effect on employee morale and, ultimately, on productivity.
The lack of standardization of work rules content and application was caused by poor communication between line organizations and by a failure on the part of managers and supervisors to communicate with employees.
Employees did not know what was expected of them and were left confused and irritated by supervisors who could not or would not explain the inconsistencies.
Their only recourse was to voice their concerns to the Employee Response Team.
Several corrective actions had been initiated before this evaluation was conducted.
The Nuclear Procedures
- System, currently under development; will reduce inconsistencies in work rules that are applicable to more than one organization.
hn ONP-wide task group will review and, where necessary, clarify the full range of work rules now in effect.
Supervisory, training is now required for all supervisors, including substitutes.
Employee-supervisor communication'will be enhanced by the new Employee Involvement Program in the Division of Nuclear Construction.
The ongoing Employee Concerns Program provides an additional channel for employee feedback:
periodic employee attitude surveys will aid in determining employee perspectives on the effectiveness oi concern resolution.

TVA EMPLOYEE CONCERNS SPECIAL PROGRAM REPORT NUMBER:
70200 FRONT MATTER REV:
3 PAGE i OF viii Preface This subcategory report is one of a series of reports prepared for the Employee Concerns Special Program (ECSP) of the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA).
The ECSP and the organization which carried out the program, the Employee Concerns Task Group (ECTG), were established by TVA's Manager of Nuclear Power to evaluate and report on those Office of Nuclear Power (ONP) employee concerns filed before February 1, 1986.
Concerns filed after that date are handled by the ongoing ONP Employee Concerns Program (ECP).
The ECSP addressed over 5800 employee concerns.
Each of the concerns was a
formal, written description of a circumstance or circumstances that an employee thought was unsafe.
unjust, inefficient, or inappropriate.
The mission of the Employee Concerns Special Program was to thoroughly investigate all issues presented in the concerns and to report the results of those investigations in a form accessible to ONP employees, the NRC, and the general public.
The results of these investigations are communicated by four levels of ECSP reports:
- element, subcategory,
- category, and final.
Element reports, the lowest reporting level, vill be published only for those concerns directly affecting the restart of Sequoyah Nuc1ear Plant's reactor unit 2.
An element consists of one or more closely related issues.
An issue is a potential problem identified by ECTG during the evaluation process as having been raised in one or more concerns.
For efficient handling, what appeared to be similar concerns were grouped into elements early in the program, but issue definitions emerged from the evaluation process itself.
Consequently, some elements did include only one issue, but often the ECTG evaluation found more than one issue per element.
Subcategory reports summarize the evaluation of a number of elements.
However, the subcategory report does more than collect element level evaluations.
The subcategory level overview of element findings leads to an integration of information that cannot take place at the element level.
This integration of information reveals the extent to which problems overlap more than one element and will therefore require corrective action for underlying causes not fully apparent at the element level.
To make the subcategory reports easier to understand, three items have been placed at the front of each report:
a preface, a glossary of the terminology unique to ECSP reports, and a li,st of acronyms.
Additionally, at the end of each subcategory report will be a Subcategory Summary Table that includes the concern numbers; identifies other subcategories that share a concern; designates nuclear safety-related, safety significant, or non-safety related concerns; designates generic applicability; and briefly states each concern.
Either the Subcategory Summary Table or another attachment or a combination of the two will enable the reader to find the report section or sections in which the issue raised by the concern is evaluated.

Each category report reviews the major findings and collective significance of the subcategory reports in one of the following areas:
management and personnel relations industrial safety construction material control operations quality assurance/quality control welding engineering A separate report on employee concerns dealing with specific contentions of intimidation, harassment, and wrongdoing will be released by the TVA Office of the Inspector General Just as the subcategory reports integrate the information collected at the element level, the category reports integrate the information assembled in all the subcategory reports within the category, addressing particularly the underlying causes of those problems that run across more than one subcategory.
h final report will integrate and assess the information collected by all of the lower level reports prepared for the ECSP.
including the Inspector General's report.

OF 20 1.0 CHARACTERIZATION OF ISSUES 1.1 Introduction 4
This subcategory report, Work Rules, addresses 11 issues raised by 235 employee concerns which referred to rules and policies governing the various organizations of the Office of Nuclear Power (ONP). It is not restricted to a formal, published set of work rules such as those used by the Division of Nuclear Construction (DNC).
Therefore, this report addresses all issues related to the application and/or content of all the rules and regulations employees work under at a TVA nuclear facility.
The term "Work Rules" (MRs) is used generically to apply to all rules and regulations.
Where the report is addressing an issue that relates only to a policy or procedure, the evaluator has identified such as a work policy.
1.2 Descri tion of Issues The issues have been grouped into two elements:
Application of Work Rules and Policies Content of Work Rules 1.2.1 Application of Work Rules and Policies Issue 70201 - Construction A lies Mork Rules Differentl The issue is based on a contention that construction differs from other organizations in its handling of rules and policies for employees working at TVA nuclear facilities.,
Issue 70202 - Crafts Held More Strictl to MRs Than Salar Polic Em lo ees The concerns raising this issue suggest that Salary Policy employees (usually managers) are not held as strictly to the MRs as craft employees.
Issue 70203 - MR Enforcement is Inconsistent The contention is that MRs are enforced inconsistently between crafts, shifts,
- crews, and individuals.
Issue 70204 - Excessive Em hasis on MR Enforcement The Concerned Individuals (CIs) contend that excessive emphasis was placed on strict application of MRs.
TVA EMPLOYEE CONCERNS SPECIAL PROGRAM REPORT NUMBER:

5 PAGE 3
OF 20 Issue 70205 - Arbitrar and Inconsistent Disci line The CIs contend that threats of arbitrary and inconsistent discipline for MR violations adversely affected work efficiency, safety, quality, and morale.
Issue 70206 - Arbitrar Disci linar Action is Condoned This issue is based primarily on past disciplinary action that was reversed on appeal or through arbitration.
The CIs contend that managers take disciplinary action without considering all the facts and should themselves be subject to disciplinary action for their arbitrary decisions that are found to be incorrect.
Issue 70207 - WRs Are Chan ed to Harass and Terminate
~Em lo ees The concerns raising this issue reflect a perception that MRs and policies are changed and misapplied by management to aid in intimidating, harassing, or terminating employees.
Issue 70208 - Disci linar Action Too Severe for WR Violation The concerns in this issue expressed a belief that disciplinary action for MR violations is often more severe than warranted by the violation.
Some CIs also argued that oral warnings are unfair because they cannot be grieved.
1.2.2 Content of Work Rules Issue 70209 - MRs Are Ineffective and Restrict Work The contention in this issue is that some work policies need to be reevaluated because they are ineffective, restrict work, or are open to misuse.
Issue 70210 - WRs Are Unclear and Ill-defined The CIs contend that some WRs are subject to interpretation and sometimes lead to unexplained disciplinary actions.

5 PAGE 4 OF 20 1.2.3 Issue 70211 - Concerns With Insufficient Information to Evaluate The following concerns were general statements of opinion that did not relate to any definable issue and therefore could not be investigated or evaluated:
EX-85-045-001 PH-85-002-014 WBN-86-052-003 The ten issues encompass a total of 235 concerns, 205 of which are based on a common perception of employees that project management's method of applying the WRs and policies have been unfair, inconsistent, and inappropriate.
The remaining 30 concerns raise issues relating to the subject matter or content of the WRs.
Of the 235 individual concerns, 194 (827.) originated in the Division of Construction (CONST).
CONST, reorganized and referred to presently as DNC, is one of several organizations operating within the Office of Nuclear Power (ONP).
Although most of the concerns came from DNC employees, the findings of this report will be relevant to WRs and policies among the different organizations working under ONP.
Those who work under such rules include employees in Power Maintenance, Power Operations, the combined Modifications Group of Power and Construction employees (now operating as an organization within DNC), Engineering, Medical
- Services, Public Safety Services, DNC, and Quality Assurance.
To locate the issue in which a particular concern is evaluated, consult the following attachments:

OF 20 2.0 SN9fARY 2.1 Summar of Issues 2.1.1 Application of Mork Rules and'olicies This element addresses the existence of inconsistencies or different standards of application for the MRs in different organizations.
It also questions whether the varying methods used by some managers in'pplying the MRs are fair.
2.1.2 Content of the Mork Rules and Policies This element addresses concerns which question the interpretation of some MRs/policies by employees and management.
2.2 Summar of Evaluation Process The evaluator has reviewed all the information available on the concerns in this subcategory.
The information pertinent to the evaluation of the issues has been considered and incorporated in this report.
The evaluation process included the review and classification or characterization of concerns, a review of source documents, interviews with management and employees, and an analysis to determine whether the issues identified problems in need of corrective action.
The findings of this report verify as factual that inconsistencies and differing standards of application for the MRs and policies do exist across the different ONP organizations.
The findings also show that the varying, methods used by some managers in applying the MRs and policies have been perceived as unfair by employees.
These problems were compounded by an emphasis placed by some managers on MR enforcement within DNC during and preceding the time period these concerns were submitted.
Additionally, the findings show that the content of some work policies are misunderstood or interpreted differently by employees and management.

OF 20 2.4 Summer of Collective Si nificance Mork rules caused employees significant irritation during the 1985-86 timeframe of the concerns evaluated in this report.
Inconsistencies between sets of work rules used by different TVA organizations were resented by workers, particularly when line supervisors cannot or will not provide explanations for the inconsistencies.
Inconsistencies in work rule application created even more resentment.
2.5 Summar of Causes Poor communication between organizations, inconsistent application, and ineffective communication with employees caused irritation over work rules.
2.6 Summar of Corrective Action Corrective action already initiated for the problems identified, in this subcategory includes:
the development of the Nuclear Procedures System which will reduce inconsistencies in procedures (like MRs which affect more than one ONP organization) the requirement that all personnel in supervisory and substitute supervisory positions complete supervisory training the establishment of an Employee Involvement Program (EIP) in DNC to improve communication between supervisors and employees on such matters as MRs and their implementation the establishment of an Employee Concerns Program to provide an additional channel for employee feedback on matters of concern such as MR content or application the continuation of employee attitude surveys as a standard way of determining employee perspectives on the effectiveness of concern resolution an increase in efforts by management to communicate the intent of some MRs confusing, to employees the convening of an ONP-wide task group to review (and where necessary, clarify) the full range of MRs now in effect

- 3. 0 EVALUATION PROCESS 3.1 General Methodolo
.The evaluation of this subcategory was conducted according to the Evaluation Plan for the Employee Concerns Task Group and the Evaluation Plan for the Management and Personnel Group.
The concern case files were reviewed.
Source documents were researched and interviews conducted in order to identify the requirements and criteria which applied to the issues in this subcategory.
The concerns were grouped into two elements; the elements were subdivided into issues.
The issues were evaluated against the identified requirements and criteria to determine findings, collective significance analysis was conducted; causes were indicated for negative findings; and corrective action for the negative findings was initiated or determined to have already been initiated.
To evaluate the MRs, some research into their history was necessary to understand their original purpose and intent.
This review covered relevant information on past practices regarding the application and content of MRs at a TVA nuclear facility.
The review relied heavily on interviews and documents of the corporate staffs and files of the organizations who work at a
common nuclear site.
Since the DNC work force was the only organization using a
published list of WRs and was the source of most of the concerns, emphasis was placed upon gathering information pertinent to MR use in that organization.
3.2 S ecific Methodolo After the concerns were separated into two main elements, each concern was reviewed and sorted into the eleven issues shown in Attachment B.
The purpose of the issues was to address several similar concerns generically.
This process enabled the evaluator to condense the 235 concerns into manageable units.
After the issues were identified, a review and analysis was conducted of source documents believed to contain the requirements and criteria governing each of the eleven issues.
Interviews were conducted with various levels of TVA employees working at both the corporate and project locations and with officials of the outside utilities.
These interviews. were conducted to verify and gain explanations of various aspects of the documents mentioned in the findings (4.0).
The interviews also provided perspective on the significance of the issues.

OF 20 The evaluator made several observations of the Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN), with attention directed to management's interaction with employees, and noted any obvious differences between organizations in the application or observance of working rules and policies.
Additionally, opinions were solicited from employees about how the application of MRs and policies affected their work, Observations were documented in the field notes that now form part of the concern files.
- 4. 0 FINDINGS
~Back round Since this report evaluates the MRs, work policies, and methods of WR application now used by ONP at all of TVA's nuclear facilities, all of the findings. while focusing on MBN, are considered to have possible generic applicability for ONP.
Initially, three general considerations are discussed that are derived from the historical development of the MRs at.TVA.
These three considerations provide a perspective from which to better understand the issues evaluated in this report.
Consideration One The interviews and review of historical documents indicate that DNC management at TVA has traditionally used WRs as a means of ensuring consistent treatment of trades and labor employees,'nd to maintain control of the work environment while managing a large work force at several work locations.
Construction work, by nature, is temporary, and employees are typically moved from site to site as one job is completed and another begun.
Having the same rules and policies at these sites made it easier for the employees to adjust because they knew what WRs they were expected to work under at each location.
Standardized WRs and policies are also an effective tool for DNC corporate managers efforts to guide and direct a large and sometimes isolated work force.
Thus, ordinarily there is sound management reasoning for the use of WRs in construction organizations such as DNC, while similar MRs would not always be necessary or suitable for smaller organizations or those with a low personnel turnover rate.
- However, the period of time requiring construction work forces has been much longer on a nuclear site than that experienced on other construction projects.
This fact has led to more interaction between construction employees and the personnel of the various permanent organizations located at the common work site than is normally the case.

70200 REVISION NUMBER:
5 PAGE 9
OF 20 e
Consideration Two The importance of consistency in the application of the MRs is highlighted by the reviews and appeal processes available to employees.
Additionally, much scrutiny was placed upon.management actions by outside arbitrators, the Merit System Protection Board (MSPB),
and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
The intent of the WRs was to ensure consistent treatment of employees by providing reasonable guidelines for employees to work under.
Revisions have been made periodically in the last 15 years which normally resulted from a need to clarify a rule, or as a result oi an adverse arbitration or MSPB ruling that impacted the current.MRs.
Consideration Three None of the outside utilities and TVA organizations evaluated by this report placed as much emphasis on formal published MRs as ONP's DNC.
ONP organizations using more informal guidelines rather than strict, formal MRs had far fewer concerns about MRs than DNC.
Rather than depending solely on formalized published MRs the private utilities placed more accountability and responsibility upon lower-level management to manage their subordinates.
Central guidance was provided in the form of a supervisory handbook which was used to help maintain consistency of'ctions. It should be noted,
- however, that the outside utilities surveyed contracted their large construction projects and the utility organizations did not work under the same employer as is the case for TVA employees.
4.1 A lication of Vork Rules and Policies 4.1.1 Issue 70201 - Construction A lies cwork Rules Differentl The issue is based on a contention that construction differs from other organizations in its handling of rules and policies for employees working, at TVA nuclear facilities.
Discussion Eighty percent of the concerns about WRs originated in former Office of Construction, now DNC, as can be seen by checking the Subcategory Report Suaaaary Table (Attachment A).
This table establishes, by origin.of concern, that employees in DNC were far more troubled by MRs than employees of other organizations.
TVk EMPLOYEE CONCERNS SPECIhL PROGRAM REPORT NUMBER:
70200 REVISION NUMBER:
5 PAGE 10 OF 20 DNC has a list of WRs unique to its organization.
DNC's WRs are applied to its employees more strictly than are the WRs in the other organizations in ONP.
Nuclear Power Operations uses the WBN Su ervisor Handbook for Foremen, which basically outlines a method of using progressive discipline and gives examples of common offenses and related forms of disciplinary action.
The absence of the handbook from DNC establishes a difference in WRs between DNC employees and those employees in the other ONP organizations Members of the other organizations operating at
- WBN, Engineering, Personnel.
- Medical, and Public Safety Services, all indicated in interviews that they did not have published WRs other than guidelines developed within their own organizations.
A reading of the WRs and policies of the various organizations reveal a number of basic differences in rules that employees in different organizations must work under at a
common TVh facility.
Conclusion This issue is factually accurate and requires corrective action.
4.1.2 Issue 70202 Craft Held More Strictly to WRs Than Salary Policy Employees The concerns raising this issue suggest that Salary Policy employees (usually managers) are not held as strictly to the WRs as craft employees.
Discussion Craft employees were the largest source of these concerns which were directed at management and salary policy employees.
The crafts basically believed they were the only employees really forced to follow WRs and policies.
The conduct guidelines were established in 1981 as a result of earlier versions of this concern and were intended to provide a closer comparison of WR penalties for Salary Policy and Trades and Labor employees in DNC.
TVA EMPLOYEE CONCERNS SPECIAL PROGRAM REPORT NUMBER'0200 REVISION NUMBER:
5 PAGE ll OP 20 Publicly reported incidents of disciplinary action towards management were noticeably lighter than reported disciplinary actions against nonmanagement.
Interviews with craft employees revealed their knowledge of incidents in which managers of Salary Policy employees were found in possession of alcohol, guilty of unauthorized removal of TVA property, or caught climbing the security fence, but were afforded lighter forms of disciplinary action than craft employees were for the same violations, Conclusion The evidence indicates the issue is factually accurate and identifies a problem requiring corrective action.
4.1.3 Issue 70203 - WR Enforcement is Inconsistent The contention is that WRs are enforced inconsistently between crafts, shifts,
- crews, and individuals.
Discussion A high number of individual concerns expressed the belief that management enforces the MRs differently between crafts and between employees within the same unit or craft.
Both supervisory and nonsupervisory employees stated in interviews that they believed some favoritism and selective enforcement exist.
There were no specific examples given of this belief other than general observations.
Evidence presented through observations and interviews showed that some managers were more authoritarian than others in applying the MRs.
Some managers indicated that MRs should be enforced equally while others believed a manager should show leniency to an employee with a good work record as opposed to one with a history oi poor performance.
Conclusion The evidence indicates the issue is factually accurate and identifies a problem requiring corrective action.

5 PAGE 12 OF 20 4.1.4 Issue 70204 - Excessive Emphasis on WR Enforcement The CIs contend that excessive emphasis was placed on strict application of MRs.
Discussion Attachment C shows an analysis of disciplinary actions taken in DNC from January 1984 through December 1985.
During the period beginning January 1985 through June
- 1985, the number of disciplinary actions almost doubled, particularly in the oral warning category.
This is significant because many concerns dealt with not being able to appeal oral warnings.
Interviews and observations conducted by the evaluator revealed that many managers used an authoritarian style of management that emphasized discipline to achieve results.
During the period when the concerns were submitted, no significant program geared to recognizing good work performance of Trades and Labor employees in DNC existed.
Conclusion The evidence indicates the issue is factually accurate and identifies a problem requiring corrective action.
4.1.5 Issue 70205 - Arbitrary and Inconsistent Discipline The CIs contend that threats of arbitrary and inconsistent discipline for MR violations adversely affected work efficiency, safety, quality, and 'morale.
Discussion While the 'criteria for judging this concern are somewhat subjective in nature, the findings did show that the work environment was perceived as undesirable by some workers, which adversely affected the morale of those workers.
During the time of these
- concerns, the findings evidence suggests that some managers were using an authoritarian style of management.
There is no direct evidence to support the concern that safety, quality, or work efficiency was adversely affected.
The MR for a violation of QA procedures in DNC provides for a two-we'ek suspension for the first'ffense and discharge for a second offense.
TVA EMPLOYEE CONCERNS SPECIAL PROGRAM REPORT NUMBER:
70200 REVISION NUMBER:
5 PAGE 13 OF 20 The actions taken in DNC beginning in November 1985, with changes in top management, indicated a belief that a new style of management was needed.
The six-month period of June 1985 through December
- 1985, showed only three cases of DNC.employees reporting conditions where hardware might not be in compliance with quality requirements.
The Employee Involvement Program (EIP) was initiated in January 1986 to solicit employee input. It was accompanied by assurances from the new construction superintendent that no one would be penalized for accidentally damaging QA rated hardware, Consequently, over 60 reports of possible damage were reported through the Employee Involvement Program with several Nonconforming Condition Reports (NCRs) written which initiated corrective action for identified deficiencies.
Conclusion The evidence indicates the issue is factually accurate in regard to morale and identifies a problem requiring corrective action.
4.1.6 Issue 70206 - Arbitrary Disciplinry Action is Condoned The issue is based primarily on past disciplinary action that was reversed on appeal or through arbitration.
The CIs contend that managers take disciplinary action without considering all the facts and should themselves be subject to disciplinary action for their arbitrary decisions that are found to be incorrect.
Discussion This perception-arose from past discipline'ry actions taken by management and later reversed through appeal mechanisms such as MSPB or arbitration rulings.
Normally, the employees were aware of a person
- being, "made whole," that is, brought back to work and given retroactive backpay.
They believed that if the original decision to take the action was ruled incorrect, then some action should be taken against the manager.
Findings showed that management actions are normally reviewed on a case-by-case basis by higher levels of management and other TVA organizations, such as the Office of the General
- Counsel, the General Manager's Office, the Office of Employee Relations, and, presently, the Inspector General's Office.
Any alleged incident of wrongdoing by a manager is reviewed, but the review is not normally made general information to employees.

5 PAGE 14 OF 20 Actions heard before an arbitrator, MSPB, or EEOC have normally been reviewed and agreed to be proper by TVA before the action is taken.
Most employees do not understand this approval process because it has not been explained to them.
Interviews with employees also indicated the belief that when they presented their case to management, no one considered or really listened to what they had to say.
Records kept during the time these concerns were presented show that very few actions were being, resolved at the lower levels.
There were indications by several DNC managers in interviews that no matter what the circumstances
- were, they could not make exceptions to the VRs.
They believed this necessary because of requirements of MSPB and arbitrators that discipline be consistent.
Findings indicated that in most instances, employees who believed management failed to consider all the facts were referring to oral warnings.
A higher-than-usual number of oral warnings were issued just prior to Quality Technology Corporation (QTC) appearance at MBN.
Employees found oral warnings particularly frustrating because such warnings cannot be appealed.
Conclusion The issue was not verified as factual.
4.1.7 Issue 70207 MRs Are Changed to Harass and Terminate Employees The concerns raising this issue reflect a perception that MRs and policies are changed and misapplied by management to aid in intimidating, harassing, or terminating employees.
Discussion This concern seems to.reflect a perception by employees that WRs are used only when management desires to harass or terminate a particular employee.
There is no evidence that shows MRs being changed or adapted to fit a particular situation.
On the contrary, management is reluctant to change any portion of a WR.
Conclusion The issue was not verified as factual.

5 PAGE 15 OF 20 4.1.8 Issue 70208 - Disciplinary Action Too Severe for WR Violation The concerns in this issue expressed a belief that disciplinary action for WR violations is often more severe than warranted by the violation.
Some CIs also argued that oral warnings are unfair because they cannot be grieved.
Discussion This evaluation found consistent evidence that much management emphasis was placed upon the appropriateness of penalty when managers enforced the MRs or policies.
The requirements of MSPB and arbitration placed management in a position of carefully reviewing the degree of penalty when taking disciplinary action, The perception that oral warnings cannot be appealed was traced to a basic disagreement in the use of oral warnings.
The employees believed that by the General Agreement, they should be able to appeal any action they believed to be unfair.
The decision to utilize oral warnings.was made by the Director of Labor Relations and resulted from discussions and agreement with the Tennessee Valley Trades and Labor Council (TVT6LC).
As such, the oral warning would only serve to document a first step in a disciplinary process and would be grievable only after the second step or written warning was issued.
Interviews with some of the outside utilities who used unionized modification and maintenance employees revealed that their first step was called an "Oral Reminder" rather than an "Oral Marning." Employees of the outside utilities could also appeal the oral reminder to their supervisor.
Conclusion The issue was not verified as factual.
4.2 Content of Work Rules 4.2.1 Issue 70209 - MRs Are Ineffective and Restrict Work The contention in this issue is that some work policies need to be reevaluated because they are ineffective, restrict work, or are open to misuse.
TVA EMPLOYEE CONCERNS SPECIAL PROGRAM REPORT NUMBER'0200 REVISION NUMBER:
5 PAGE 16 OF 20 Discussion Some policies have been ineffective because the content was ambiguously worded causing them to be interpreted in two or more conflicting ways.
Some managers and employees did not understand or had conflicting opinions on what some WRs were intended to accomplish.
The following rule was cited in several concerns as being misunderstood:
Concealing defective work or violation of Quality Assurance/Quality Control procedures (up to and including discharge for obvious or willfulviolation).
First offense-2 weeks suspension; second offense-discharge.
This WR raised concern that an employee accidentally damaging a piece of safety-related hardware might not report it in fear of pending disciplinary action.
However, management has taken corrective action in regards to this concern as stated in section 4.1.5 of this report.
Other issues addressed more directly some policy or procedural requirements that appeared to hold up work or create unnecessary work.
Here are two examples drawn from individual concerns.
1.
Public Safety Officers confiscate tools during toolbox-
- searches, causing craft to spend time acquiring new tools.
2.
Some inspection procedures. delay the work unnecessarily, Findings indicated a problem existed with some of the mechanics of the inspection. process rather than its written procedures.
In most cases these concerns indicated a failure to communicate the reasons for the policies and procedures that seemed unnecessarily restrictive, but which could in fact be adjusted.
Misuse of a WR is a management problem and is addressed under Section 4.1, "Application of Work Rules and Policies."
Conclusion This issue was verified as factual and requires corrective action.
TVA EMPLOYEE CONCERNS SPECIAL PROGEQf REPORT NUMBER:
70200 REVISION NUMBER:
5 PAGE 17 OF 20 4.2.2 Issue 70210 - MRs Are Unclear and Ill-defined The CIs contend that some WRs are subject to interpretation and sometimes lead to unexplained disciplinary actions.
Discussion This evaluation found most MRs clear and well defined when used as guidelines for discipline.
Therefore, allegations that MRs were unclear or ill defined were not factually accurate;
- however, evidence existed that some MRs and policies were misunderstood by employees.
Interviews with the DNC employees indicated that for the most part, they understood the rules but they believed some were unnecessary.
Conclusion The issue was not verified as factual.
'5.0 COLLECTIVE SIGNIFICANCE The large number of concerns in this subcategory (235) indicates that problems with MRs caused significant employee irritation at MBN during the period of the concerns (1985 through February 1986),
Mhen employees from different ?VA organizations work side-by-side for extended periods of time as they did at WBN, inconsistent work rules are noticed and often deeply resented, particularly if line supervisors cannot or do not provide explanations for the inconsistencies.
For instance, WRs and work policies can slow down work.
The reasons for such slow downs are not always adequately explained, particularly to nearby workers who must work on while fellow workers seem to be standing idle.
The fact that the great majority of the concerns (205 versus 30) addressed the application of MRs, rather than their content, also points to line supervisors rather than the rules themselves as the major source of the employee irritation.
Interviews with employees revealed that supervisors often either ignored questions about WR application or expressed irritation with the questioner.
Either response added fuel to employee resentment, thereby weakening the teamwork needed between management and employees to accomplish the goals and objectives of TVA's nuclear program.

70200 REVISION NUMBER:
5 PAGE 18 OF 20 6.0 CAUSE 6.1 Poor Coordination of MRs Between Or anizations Although Nuclear Operations personnel and DNC personnel in the same crafts often worked in the same areas, little was done to standardize their WRs or work policies.
6.2 Inconsistent A lication or Enforcement of MRs and Policies At the time of these
- concerns, employees felt unsure when disciplinary action of WRs would be enforced or by whom.
6.3 Ineffective Communication b
Line Su ervisors As the Collective Significance analysis pointed out, confusion over MRs during the time period of these concerns often became resentment because some supervisors could not or would not explain what seemed to be unfair MR applications.
In all the organizations, efforts were made by higher levels of management to ensure that disciplinary actions taken were proper and consistent.
- However, these efforts examined only whether disciplinary action was consistent for the violation or offense.
Upper management did not deal with the overall effect of disciplinary actions or pursue whether more positive resolutions to the problem were available to a manager.
B.
Employee perceptions that management would not listen was so strong that many employees believed that their side of a case would not be heard until their appeal was off the site.
While there were sufficient appeal processes available to employees, there are indications that at the time of the concerns, few grievances were resolved at the lower levels of supervision.
- Thus, poor listening skills on the part of some managers fed distrust on the part of employees, causing the problem to grow worse with each repetition of this circle.
C.
The severity of the penalties for MR violations was sometimes caused by managers'ear of appearing inconsistent or of practicing favoritism.
This was unfortunate since the MRs potentially allowed each manager to adjust the penalty to suit the circumstances of the case.

The findings showed that WRs and policies can slow down work.
The reasons for such MRs have not always been adequately explained to employees.
An example would be an inspection procedure that may seem to slow down work to an employee, but is essential for ensuring a safely built nuclear plant.
E.
A lack of good communications between employees and management resulted in the meaning and intent of the VRs not being understood.
- 7. 0 CORRECTIVE ACTION 7.1 Previousl Initiated Corrective Actions During the time that these concerns were expressed, management and employees were not communicating effectively.
Inadequate understanding of MRs was a part of this communication problem.
A.
The Nuclear Performance Plan (revised July 18, 1986) calls for the development and implementation of a Nuclear Procedures System-which is intended to centralize and standardize ONP procedures and hence ONP performance.
Interface procedures (called Standards when they apply to all ONP sites and called Procedures when they affect only one site) will help to eliminate inconsistencies in MRs.
Other components of the Nuclear Procedures System Organization Charters, Job Descriptions, and Responsibility and Authority Profiles will hold line managers responsible for consistent interpretation of the standardized MRs.
B.
DNC is presently completing supervision training, which all personnel in supervisory and substitute supervisory positions are required to attend.
C.
The establishment of an Employee Involvement Program (EIP) in the DNC is intended to encourage better communication between line managers and employees.
The exchange of information between managers and employees in weekly EIP meetings has helped improve understanding of the MRs and allow feedback to employees on their questions.
D.
The establishment of an Employee Concerns Program offers an additional outlet for employee feedback that can not be expressed through normal channels.

Corrective actions for subcategory Report 7-08, "Morale," has called for the continuation of Employee Attitude Surveys on a
regular basis.'he problems revealed by the evaluation in this subcategory also require continued, reliable measures of employee attitudes.
In the present
- case, a perception of lingering management-employee communication problems over MRs is itself a problem that must be dealt with. It is more likely to be dealt with effectively if employee perceptions are measured by frequent, statistically reliable, surveys.
F.
As noted in sections 4.1.5E and 4.2.1A of this report, management took some immediate steps to clarify the intent and application of some MRs.
This increased effort at communication resulted in a corresponding increase in employee involvement.
7.2 Corrective Action As a Result of This Evaluation To develop standardized
