2. Exit Interview
G
The inspection scope and findings were summarized during an exit interview
on February 20, 1987. The inspectors related observations on the conduct
of the Quality Concerns Program. The licensee indicated that no
proprietary information was reviewed or discussed during this meeting.
i
3. Approach
The inspection team focused inspection efforts on a review of QCP case
<
files in order to develop an overall programmatic evaluation of the QCP,
to gain insight relative to QCP procedures, and to determine the
effectiveness of the QCP. Specific emphasis was placed on the review of
QCP files regarding discrimination, harassment and intimidation.
The review of the QCP files focused on the nature of the specific
complaint; the thoroughness of the documentation regarding the initial
complaint; the completeness of followup and documentation; the adequacy of
resolution actions; and QCP followup with the complainant.

i It should be recognized at this point that there is no regulatory
requirement for a licensee to maintain a quality concern program. The
licensee recognized the value of such a program and initiated the program
to address concerns raised by employees. The VEGP QCP, with the support
of senior management, has developed and matured into a significant program
to address concerns raised by employees. The QCP represents a successful
program to deal with employee concerns at VEGP.

4. Team Inspection Activities
a. Overview of Quality Concern Program
The QCP was initiated in January 1984 to provide a means for project
employees to report concerns relative to the construction activities
at the project and to enable project management to address those
emplayee concerns relative to safety and quality of work at the
project. QCP is based on several premises designed to provide a
means for individual employees involved or interested in the project
- to raise safety related- concerns outside the normal supervisory
channels; to provide a means to investigate and resolve those
concerns independent of normal supervisory channels; and, to ensure
that employees understand they have a responsibility to report
problems free of fear of retaliation.
The QCP has the support of the highest levels of licensee management
and this was evidenced by several documents signed by senior managers
which discussed the QCP. One document in particular, an open letter
to project employees dated February 12, 1985, and signed by a senior
vice president, discussed the QCP and urged project employees to
utilize the program. The open letter stated in part: " Georgia Power
Company is committed to constructing and operating Vogtle in
compliance with all safety and quality requirements. Since you are
involved with Vogtle, it is your responsibility and obligation to
assist Georgia Power in meeting that commitment by informing us of
any and all conditions which might prevent such complianc'e." The
document also provided instructions on who to contact regarding a
concern and urged that concerns be reported in the interest of safety
and quality. Other means were also used to advertise the QCP such as
annual orientation meetings, new employee orientations, site employee
information meetings, paycheck flyers, QCP boxes at various locations
throughout the project, and project newspaper articles. This program
was well advertised throughout the project.
QCP receives concerns in numerous ways which include in person
reports, by mail, via QCP drop boxes at the site, by telephone, and
from various public forums such as the media. The concerns are
reviewed by the QCP staff to: determine their relationship to the
quality of work or the ability to safely operate the plant; to select
an appropriate investigative organization on the project; and, to
perform various other administrative functions. The concern is then
reviewed by the QCP Screening Committee which is comprised of the
Project Quality Assurance Manager, Legal Counsel and the QCP Manager.
The Screening Committee verifies staff determinations, particularly
in the areas of quality and investigation selection.
QCP also initiates contact with the submitter of the concern to
ensure that there is a full understanding of the concern. This
initial contact also serves to ensure that proper resolution strategy
is developed and pursued. Concerns received from individuals who
choose to remain anonymous are pursued even though the benefits of a
personal interview are not available.

QCP personnel have access to all areas of the. project from which they
can obtain:necessary expertise. This includes the resources of.GPC,
Southern Company Services, Bechtel Power Corporation, Westinghouse
and other contractors at the project. Within GPC, these resources
include significant expertise in the areas of Quality Assurance,
Quality Control, Maintenance, Construction Engineering, Document
Control and Operations. QCP management insists on independence in
reviewing concerns and that independence is supported by project
management.
The review of selected QCP investigative files reflected that the
files were thoroughly documented. QCP files are stored in locked
filing cabinets within the QCP facility with access restricted to QCP
personnel.
Upon conclusion of an investigation and submittal of a report, the
results of the investigation are provided to the concerned employee
either in writing . or verbally. This closure action with the
concerned employee serves to provide an opportunity to the concerned
employee to correct any misunderstandings of the concern by the QCP
investigator responsible for the action and to assure the concerned
employee that QCP properly resolved the concern. In addition, there
is additional review of the file following closure by QCP management
and legal counsel. Additional review is also performed by the QCP
Steering Committee on significant concerns. The Steering Committee
is comprised of senior level project managers.
b. GPC Nonretaliation Policy
GPC has publicly committed to a nonretaliation policy with regards to
employees who participate in the QCP or otherwise report safety
concerns. This policy has been publicly supported by the highest
levels of project management and GPC management. Senior project
management has ensured that contractor and project managers are aware
of the nonretaliation policy and numerous internal memorandums have
addressed this policy. This pledge is that retaliation against an
individual for raising quality or safety issues will not be tolerated
at the project. This nonretaliation policy has continued to receive
strong support from the highest levels of GPC management. It should
also be noted that GPC, during new employee orientations, advises new
employees of their rights regarding the reporting of concerns whether
it be to supervisors, the QCP, GPC senior management or the NRC. New
employees are provided the telephone numbers of the QCP and the NRC
during these orientation briefings,
c. Review of Investigative Files
The NRC Inspection Team focused on a review of QCP investigative
files which contained concerns related to alleged harassment and
intimidation. These particular files primarily involved concerns
which were reported to QCP by concerned individuals who did not

choose to exercise their prerogative to file a complaint with either
the NRC or the Department of Labor. The Inspection Team reviewed
these files to ' determine the course of action taken by QCP with
regards to complaints of harassment and intimidation.
The QCP Manager was asked to provide a computer listing of all QCP
cases involving concerns related to harassment, intimidation or
discrimination. The QCP computer contained 190 case files which were
categorized as containing some element of harassment, intimidation,
retaliation or discrimination. The Inspection Team reviewed 138 of
the 190 case files. This review was to determine the nature of the
complaint, the actions taken to resolve the complaint and corrective
action. This review indicated that all complaints related to alleged
harassment-type concerns were properly addressed and satisfactorily
resolved with corrective action taken as appropriate.
d. Discussion of Harassment-Type Conce:r.s
QCP appears to be adequately following-up harassment-type concerns
received from employees at the project. Many of the cases reviewed
by the Inspection Team contained extensive follow-up efforts on the
concerns. In most case files reviewed there appeared to be
legitimate justification for personnel action being taken against
individuals who subsequently reported those actions as retaliatory.
!!arassment-type allegations represent a very difficult case to
substantiate. Harassment can take many subtle forms and often the
extent and degree of harassment is an individual perception. What
may be perceived as harassment to one individual may not necessarily
be seen as harassment by another individual subjected to the same
action. This subjective element is present in almost every case.
Many problems related to harassment-type concerns are the result of
either a lack of mid-level and/or first-level management expertise in
personnel management and communications. These problems often become
aggravated by personality conflicts or by moments of heated emotional
exchanges between individuals involved.
A serious consequence of harassment-type concerns is the " appearance"
of harassment and intimidation and the effect this " appearance" could
have on other individuals who may be peripherally associated with the
parties involved in such incidents. Again, perceptions take on a key
role in these matters and management must act quickly to insure that
such incidents do not create a " chilling effect" which would serve to
discourage other individuals from reporting concerns. Progressive
management recognizes this phenomenon and acts to defuse these
situations in a positive manner. Typically, a prompt response
involving interviews and investigative fact gathering serve to assure
employees that management will not tolerate any harrassment-type
activity. This, followed by positive corrective action, if required,
will usually control the " chilling effect." The Inspection Team
found that QCP was responsive to harassment-type concerns and
..
9
.
.
.

initiated prompt action to address those concerns. In some cases,
although harassment or retaliation was not substantiated, the
licensee took action to address and correct "the appearance of a
problem." Harassment-type activity very often involves claims and
counter-claims, accusations and denials, charges and counter-charges,
all of which are replete with emotion, individual perceptions and
personal feelings. These factors often can not be disentangled
because of the human element. The corrective action in these cases
should not be construed as an indicator that harassment was
substantiated, but rather as an attempt at compromise in the interest
of fairness. These salutary actions serve to contain the " chilling
effect" and encourage the continued participation of employees in the
concerns program. Available QCP reporting statistics support the
contention that such compromise actions have had a beneficial effect
at the project as long term reporting statistics do not show a
decline in the use of the program.
It was evident during this inspection that the QCP is a dynamic
program which evolved through various stages of development and
steadily matured. This development was encouraged with the public
support of senior management and the corporate position that concerns
would be addressed and resolved in a fair and equitable manner, and
that employees have a responsibility to support the program.
In many cases, the alleged harassment-type activity, such as a
lay-off or dismissal, was found through investigation, to be
technically sound and defensible. On the other hand, there were also
some cases in which a suspicion was created by the allegation which
served to weaken the defensibility of the action and raise the
possibility that the allegation "just might be true." In these
cases, the licensee took the conservative approach in favor of the
individual involved, prudently giving the benefit of the doubt to the
complainant. This appeared to be an employee-oriented approach. In
some of these cases, it was evident that the supervisors did not
follow accepted management principals in dealing with problem
.
employees. For example, there were cases were progressive discipline
'
techniques supported by detailed documentation had not been applied
! and although disciplinary action was technically correct, it also was
deficient from the standpoint that completed actions and documenta-
tion could not adequately defend against a claim of the disciplinary
action being harassment. Some investigative files reflected the
considerable effort that had gone into justifying an employee's
. termination after an allegation of retaliation became an issue.
No one can deny that construction work is physically demanding, and
at times dangerous and difficult. These men and women are experts at
working with their hands as craftsmen and some are close to being
artisans in their particular skills. Many do not possess the finer
skills of tact and diplomacy and their tendency is to be direct and

to the point. Consequently, when these individuals advance into
management . positions such as foremen and supervisors, they have
difficulty in managing people because they never learned how.
Although their intentions are honest, their ability to effectively
communicate those intentions often result in frustration and the
consequences can be dramatic at times. Most harassment-type activity
involves the first-line supervisor or manager who has had no formal
management training. The licensee has recognized this problem and
has instituted training classes for these first-line managers. This
will be further addressed in inspection report Section (g).
e. Discussions with QCP Personnel
Interviews were conducted with several members of the QCP Staff and
the credentials of all QCP staff members were reviewed. Overall, all
members of the QCP staff were found to be well qualified for their
positions. All but one staff member had a four year college degree.
Several held degrees in engineering disciplines. All had several
years experience in construction and all had been with GPC for at
least two years or more. The Inspection Team found the QCP staff
well qualified for their position.
It should be pointed out that one intangible factor was evident among
all the staff members. It is the impression of the Inspection Team
that all the QCP staff believed in what they were doing. They took
significant pride in the fact that they were an independent group and
that their responsibility was to conduct a fair and impartial review
of all concerns brought to their attention. Senior project managers
encouraged the group and provided support which enhanced their
independence. This combination significantly contributed to the
success of this group.
f. Discussions with Senior Project Management
Discussions with senior project managers affirmed their commitment to
the QCP. A vital factor in the success of the program is recognition
by senior management that the QCP is an integral part of the project
team and they are committed to sustaining their support for the
program team. The QCP Manager has routine access to project manage-
ment and receives any support requested. Senior managers are
involved in the QCP Steering Committee and are kept informed of
trends and significant issues developed in the QCP.
Senior management is aware of the possible " chilling effect" that
harassment-type concerns could exert on the project employees. It
was pointed out to the Inspection Team that the QCP " numbers" have
remained relatively constant and over time an increase in reports to
and contacts with QCP have been developing. A representative of

.. .
senior management stated that they have a high degree of confidence
that there has been no " chilling effect" on project employees with
regards to their. utilization of the QCP, nor do they have any
information to indicate that a " chilling effect" has ever gripped the
project.
g. Discussions with Licensee Contractor
During the inspection, it was learned that the licensee engaged the
services of an independent contractor to provide professional
consulting services to the project relative to training in management
and operations. The consulting firm was represented by two
l individuals who held doctoral degrees in Industrial Engineering
Applications and Psychology. In the Fall of 1984, these consultants
were requested to assist in the resolution of a developing problem
involving Quality Control (QC) Inspectors. Extensive interviews were
conducted by the consultants with QC Inspectors and training was
provided to assist in the development of writing skills and
interpersonal relationships for the QC Inspectors and supervisors.
Following this, the consultants were asked to remain available at the
project to provide assistance in the development of team work
strategies and to provide individual counselling as needed. The
consultants were subsequently interviewed as part of this inspection.
They stated that they visited the project at least twice a week and
that they had free access to the project and personnel. They often
provided counsellf ag to employees on request of the employees and
they were generally available to anyone desiring to speak to them.
They were provided counselling facilities on the project and often
times would conduct spontaneous sessions with individuals in the work
place. The consultants stated that senior project management
supported them and that management was responsive to problems. The
consultants also conducted counselling sessions with various
first-line supervisors and foremen who were experiencing difficulty
with interpersonal skills. Several of these foremen had been
identified for focused attention because of indicators that they were
lacking in the ability to deal effectively with their employees. The
consultants stated that over a period of time there was an increase
in their utilization and they felt that they were able to make some
positive contributions to the project.
Although they were under contract by the licensee, they stated they
felt they had considerable freedom and support from management to
identify human relations problems and assist in the resolution of
those problems. They stated that they had extensive contact with
senior project managers and their advice was frequently solicited by
project management. They stated that they had no indication that
there was any chilling effect at the project and that
miscommunication and misunderstanding was primarily responsible for ;
the majority of harassment-type problems at the project. They stated I
that they also provided management assistance to various contractor
managers at the project and assisted in resolution of problems being
experienced within the various contractor organizations.

S. Conclusions
The inspection team found that the VEGP QCP is a viable and dynamic
program which serves an integral function at the project. QCP files which
were reviewed were found to be complete and detailed the resolution of the
concern to include closure with the concerned employee. The QCP Staff was
found to be professional in all aspects and dedicated to the QCP
principles and goals.
Since the inception of the QCP, the NRC Resident Inspector has had
unfettered access to the program and has conducted selected reviews of
case files on a periodic basis to determine the adequacy of the program.
This program has steadily matured and evolved into an effective
organizational structure serving an important function at the project.
In those instances where harassment was alleged, the licensee conducted
appropriate reviews of the allegations and took corrective action where
indicated. We previously discussed harassment type concerns in
paragraph 4, supra, and concluded there was no indication of a chilling
effect based on the statistical evidence showing no decline in the number
of employee contacts with the QCP. There is also strong evidence that the
licensee is aware of the possible chilling effect and that actions have
been taken to address the phenomenon.
