Us Dept Of Energy Work Values

Daily Duties at Us Dept Of Energy:

As the Assistant Manager (AM) for Oversight and Assessment, I directed and provided vision for an interdisciplinary team of quality assurance, special nuclear materials, industrial hygiene, health physicist, industrial safety, explosive safety, construction safety, fire protection, emergency management, and transportation personnel to ensure overall safety and health (S&H) of Pantex contractor and Federal personnel associated with nuclear safety management programs. The work included providing direction for multiple initiatives involving budgets, Standards Based Compliance and Integrated Safety Management (ISM). I initiated multiple process improvements related to OSHA, DOE, DOT and State of Texas occupational safety requirements. I initiated improvements in Federal oversight of its contractors and metrics for monitoring performance. As part of providing the vision, I built a strong rapport with local and national union leadership. I developed training standards for my staff and worked with them to accomplish the training objectives. I routinely briefed management status of initiatives to DNFSB, Pantex Citizens Advisory Board, Dept. of Labor (DOL), National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), senior DOE Managers from the DOE Offices for Environmental Management, Environment, Safety and Health, and Defense Programs) and other stakeholders on DOE-wide safety and health issues and operations. As an Acting AM in multiple capacities (Weapon Operations, Nuclear Materials, Oversight and Assessment), I performed similar duties on a regular basis. As part of the monthly and quarterly contract reviews, site projects for research and development capabilities and programs and budgets were reviewed for technical content, cost, schedule and scope.

What they like about Us Dept Of Energy:

Working in an organization that is technologically advanced, creative, and innovative is critical in your assessment of hiring companies. Less important to you are stability of the organization, the length of time an organization has been in business, and the business' plans for the future. You prefer a fast-moving company that will take risks to achieve its goals and objectives. The length of time the company has been in business is irrelevant. Maintaining status quo is unnecessary. You thrive on change, uncertainty and the upside of potential business risks, especially those associated with innovation. Stability for the long haul is not nearly as important as is working in an atmosphere that is charged with a sense of urgency and constant change.
