- My name is Craig Taylor and I work for an organisation called URENCO UK who are part of the Nuclear Industry. You WILL be pleased to hear that in my personal opinion the nuclear Industry is VERY safe, which is obviously a bonus when you consider the implications of it NOT being so!!!
- This is down to us operating in a highly regulated industry, its inherent risk aversion, bureaucratic procedures and the fact that it is regulated by the Nuclear Installations Inspectorate, the Office of Civil Nuclear Security and the Environment Agency ALL add to creating a + safety culture but one that also brings a LOT of training.
- We have approx 2600 statutory training requirements. Many of these events have a refresher period attached ranging from 3 months to 4 years, soyou can see that that we deliver a LOT of statutory training VERY often.
