Quality and ES&H Self-Appraisal Program at the Center for Applied Physics, Engineering and Testing
This report describes the Quality and ES&H Self-Appraisal Program at the Center for Applied Physics, Engineering and Testing, 9300 and explains how the program promotes good ``Conduct of Operations`` throughout the center and helps line managers improve efficiency and maintain a safe work environment. The program provides a means to identify and remove hazards and to ensure workers are following correct and safe procedures; but, most importantly, 9300`s Self-Appraisal program uses DOE`s ``Conduct of Operations`` and ``Quality Assurance`` guidelines to evaluate the manager`s policies and decisions. The idea is to draw attention to areas for improvement in ES&H while focusing on how well the organization`s processes and programs are doing. A copy of the Administrative Procedure which establishes and defines the program, as well as samples of a Self-Appraisal Report and a Manager`s Response to the Self-Appraisal Report are provided as appendixes.
