IMPORTANCE OF SAFETY • Safety objective: • Protect people and the environment from armful effects of ionizing radiation • Nuclear installations: • Avoid accidents • Reduce their consequences as much as possible • Risks: • Contamination, irradiation, evacuation, impossible food consumption, etc…
SOLIDARITY IN SAFETY • Neighboring countries: • Can be significantly affected • Worldwide: • Global effect of an accident on public acceptance • Reduction of development and use of nuclear power
SCOPE OF SAFETY STANDARDS • Cover all the aspects of safety • Regulatory infrastructure • Siting • Design • Operational safety • Safety culture • Reflect international consensus on best practices to achieve a high level of safety
PROGRESSIVE APPLICATION OF SAFETY STANDARDS • Established for a mature situation where installations are already operated • No guidance on their progressive implementation • IAEA is developing specific guide for progressive implementation of Safety Standards
NEW SAFETY GUIDE FOR PROGRESSSIVE IMPLEMENTATION OF SAFETY STANDARDS 1. Road-map to gradually apply the IAEA Safety Standards 2. Terms of reference to tailor the Safety Review Services 3. Training framework for embarking countries
