 Today, we’re diving into a critical topic that’s shaking up the energy, utilities, and nuclear industries, that topic being labor management challenges. Join me as we explore the unique obstacles faced by this sector and how Indeavor is revolutionizing workforce management.

The nuclear industry and utilities industry are confronting a complex blend of challenges. A workforce that’s aging, coupled with highly specialized roles that are challenging to fill, and that makes attracting new talent very difficult. It’s an uphill battle, frankly. Adding to this, the industry had to combat negative public perceptions surrounding outdated technology and hazardous conditions, further complicating talent acquisitions.

And that’s not all, mandated fatigue rules set by the NRC, add another layer of complexity. Juggling a skill shortage with work hour limits and break rules is a tightrope walk where a single violation could incur fines in excess of $300, 000.

In the face of these challenges, Indeavor steps in with a robust solution, automated shift scheduling, and fatigue management. Our solution empowers nuclear plants to operate efficiently and confidently while mitigating risks, accidents, injuries, negligence, lawsuits, and fines. It saves valuable time by automatically calculating and tracking intricate fatigue rules, reducing the chances of error and oversights.

We streamline the annual reporting requirements with the NRC, enabling nuclear plants to concentrate on their core operations. Moreover, our system promotes worker and plant safety through sophisticated scheduling aligned with industry regulations and work rules as well. Plus, it helps eradicate excess labor costs due to violation fines over or understaffing and unnecessary overtime.

Let’s dig deeper into how our solution effectively tackles the complexities of fatigue management and enhances workforce management in the nuclear sector. With Indeavor we ensure strict adherence to NRC fatigue ensuring employee schedules adhere to these regulations.

Our system empowers users to craft accurate, consistent schedules within minutes, eliminating user errors, and ensuring operational rules are followed. Schedulers receive real-time alerts if rules are violated, granting them flexibility to adjust schedules to remain compliant or complete a waiver form.

Now let’s explore the critical compliance concerns and existing opportunities our solution addresses within the nuclear sector. From fatigue management to fitness for duty programs, indeavor takes care of compliance with NRC requirements. It centralizes record keeping, simplifying annual reporting.

There’s an exciting opportunity to hire talent without nuclear backgrounds and track their upscaling efforts to centralize qualification management. Additionally, our mobile app empowers employees to view and interact with their schedule, doubling as a recruitment and or retention tool.
