171. "Building Habits for a Healthy Safety Culture" with Claire Harris, Clean Energy Connections

Nuclear energy is definitely having a resurgent moment across the power sector and the world, as more and more regions are tapping into the carbon-free source of electricity to meet reliability requirements paired with emissions reduction goals. But one of the questions that often follows the discussion of nuclear energy is safety. In the latest episode of the Energy Central Power Perspectives Podcast, returning guest Claire Harris, now President of Clean Energy Connections, joins the discussion to cover the critical topic of building habits for a healthy safety culture in the energy industry, in nuclear and in other areas as well. With her extensive background in nuclear safety and performance improvement, Claire shares with host Jason Price and Producer Matt Chester her insights on how to foster a culture that prioritizes safety across all levels of a utility organization. This episode is particularly timely, being recorded during North American Occupational Safety and Health Week, and underscores the importance of safety in the energy sector, where risks such as electrocution, falls, and environmental stress are prevalent. Claire uncovers the importance of developing high standards, fostering a sense of belonging, and encouraging open communication and honest feedback within teams. This episode is a must-listen for energy professionals looking to enhance their understanding of safety culture and implement effective practices within their organizations.
