All rights reserved © B&W Pantex 2008 Pantex Plant engages in high hazard operations Explosives manufacture and testing Nuclear weapon assembly and disassembly Protective force operations Pantex Plant began Highly Reliable Organization (HRO) journey in 2007 Heavy emphasis on organizational culture and leadership in HRO training All managers at the Plant trained (  500) EFCOG Group on Safety Culture Pantex Plant took a lead role in 2008 Pantex Plant continues with new EFCOG group in 2010 Pantex committed to be a lead Plant in safety culture assessments Safety culture is a foundation of HROs Provides feedback as to effectiveness of HRO 3

All rights reserved © B&W Pantex 2008 Define a safety culture model that fits the context of Pantex Plant operations Develop a Pantex-specific survey instrument to assess safety culture Pilot test to verify instrument design Administer in Applied Technology Division to all employees Analyze data to identify current performance levels, empirical relationships between culture dimensions, and gaps across employee groups Develop action plan with metrics Offer for plant-wide deployment 7

All rights reserved © B&W Pantex Schein, Organizational Culture and Leadership, 2004 Underlying Assumptions Espoused Beliefs and Values Artifacts and Behaviors Below the surface Determine by interviewing leadership Determine by observing work Misalignment hints at deeper underlying assumptions keeping the organization from attaining its desired balance between production and safety Underlying assumptions must be understood to properly interpret artifacts and to create change

All rights reserved © B&W Pantex 2008 Developed class of culture lines of inquiry that would provide feedback on Pantex HRO Researched numerous survey instruments and guides recommended by EFCOG Determined outside experts in survey design and analysis would achieve a better response and more accurate results Contracted with Texas Tech University to design and deliver a survey and conduct follow up interviews 9

All rights reserved © B&W Pantex 2008 TTU performed literature review, observed multiple operations, interviewed employees to inform survey development Interviewed bargaining unit employees Interviewed exempt employees Interviewed Applied Technology Safety Team Will perform additional process observations, document review, and focus groups to further understand results and develop action plans for improvement 10

All rights reserved © B&W Pantex 2008 Common themes (Singer et al,. 2002, p. 113) Commitment to safety articulated at the highest levels of the organization and translated into shared values, beliefs, and behavioral norms at all levels. Necessary resources, incentives, and rewards provided by the organization to allow this commitment to occur. Safety is valued as the primary priority, even at the expense of “production” or “efficiency”; personnel are rewarded for erring on the side of safety even if they turn out to be wrong. Communication between workers and across organizational levels is frequent and candid. Unsafe acts are rare despite high levels of production. There is an openness about errors and problems, and they are reported when they do occur. Organizational learning is valued; the response to a problem focuses on improving system. 12
