Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Integrated Safety Management Systems ReviewAugust 8-9, 2006 Work Smart Standards at LBNL Howard Hatayama EH&S Division Director
Work Smart Standards • Work Smart Standard Set • The collection of regulations, codes, ordinances and DOE directives that provide the EH&S envelope under which we assess our hazards and plan and conduct our work • Identified via the necessary and sufficient process • Tailored to the Lab’s activities
Work Smart Standards • Necessary Standards • Standards that apply to Berkeley Lab by law and regulation • Sufficient Standards • Consensus standards, state laws and regulations and local ordinances, Berkeley Laboratory internal standards and other standards that additionally ensure adequate protection of the safety and health of workers, the public, and the environment
Work Smart Standards • The Work Smart Standards Set resides in the UC/DOE Contract DOE UCOP- DOE Contract LBNL Appendix I WSS Set
Work Smart Standards • Necessary and Sufficient Process • 1995 - DOE Secretary states commitment to N&S Process -“….addresses how the Department will select its standards to protect workers, the public, and the environment; ….the (WSS) Process is intended to produce a set of necessary and sufficient standards appropriately tailored to specific work to be performed and the hazards associated with that work.” • 1996 - LBNL/DOE BSO N&S Process • 1997 - Work Smart Standards Set for LBNL established
Work Smart Standards LBNL/DOE Integrated WSS Change (Update) Process • 1998 - DOE Chartered Local Change Control Process • 1999 - First Annual WSS Set Update • Updates made annually since with the exception of contract transition year
Work Smart Standards • Steering and Advisory Committee • UCOP • EH&S Director • Contracting Officer • BSO • Site Manager • Contracting Officer • LBNL • EH&S Division Director • EH&S Division Deputy
Work Smart Standards • Integrated Change/Update Process Overview • Standards Review • Existing WSS Set, Non-WSS Set Standards • Changes in DOE Directives • Teams • Environmental Protection • Facilities, Fire Protection and Transportation • Radiation Protection • Occupational Safety, Health and Medicine • Management
Work Smart Standards • Integrated Change/Update Process Overview (cont’d) • Operational (Work and Hazard) Review • Formal Work Authorizations • Line Management Authorized Work • Team Members • LBNL and BSO WSS Coordinators • Division Safety Coordinators (all LBNL divisions) • DOE Program Field Representatives
Work Smart Standards WSS Teams conduct review and report on changes DOE-LBNL INTEGRATED WSS UPDATE PROCESS Advisory Team Reviews Report UCOP/DOE ContractUpdated Approval By UCOP-DOE-LBNL Steering Committee WSS Set Changes Submitted to DOE/LBL Contract Officers
Work Smart Standards • Since 2000, there have been more than 75 changes to the WSS Set • 2000 ~20 changes • 2001 ~15 • 2002/2003* ~16 • 2004 ~26 • 2005/2006** In Progress *Contract extension **New contract
