Joseph hi. Farley Nuclear Plant and Southern Nuclear Operating Company Support Personnel Fitness For Duty Program Summary The data generated under the Fitness For Duty (FFD) program from January 1997 through June 1997 has been reviewed and analyzed. The data reflected in this report covers the following personnel: 1) workera, including contract personnel of the Joseph hi.
Farley Nuclear Plant; 2) Southern Nuclear Operating Company employees located at corporate headquarters in Birmingham, Alabama; and, for the period of January 1,1997 through hiarch 21,1997, 3) Southern Nuclear Operating Company support employees located at the Edwin I. Ilatch Nuclear Plant and the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, As of hiarch 22,1997, those employees will be reported as licensee employees on the IIatch and Vogtle reports.
The random pool contains not only those badged for unesconed access, but also those employees who may, in an emergency condition, be called upon to work at the site and may require unescorted access. Contractors without approved programs are included in i
the testing pool while on site. Testing during this time period was performed on a nominal weekly basis to include swing shifts, weekends, and holidays. During this testing period, the rate of testing was equal to 50% yearly of the total population.
In summarizing management actions associated with the FFD program, it should be emphasized that the incidents of confirming positive tests were very low. Consequently, management actions relative to determination of FFD have been limited. Contractor employees screened as positive are denied access and no further action is taken. Twenty-nine short term contractors at Plant Farley tested positive and were denied access.
There were no management actions taken on licensee employees during this six month period due to positive drug screens.
Weekly quality control checks of the Fitness for Duty random pool revealed only minor discrepancies from January through June.
As a pro-active measure, in April 1996, management instituted an enhancement to the arrest reporting requirement. Employees reporting a substance abuse related arrests will submit to for cause fitness for duty testing and be referred for Employee Assistance evaluation by a mental health professional to determine if there is a substance abuse or other problem. For this reporting period, three licensee employees at Plant Farley have been referred for evaluation and underwent outpatient rehabilitation. All three employees are subject to a 2. year aftercare requirement monitored by the psychiatric and substance abuse benefit administrator. One of these employees is also in the frequent follow up testing pool for a period of three years.
