The topic of Nuclear Safety Culture touches several different aspects with contributions from the main organizations involved in nuclear projects and belonging to vendors, utility and regulators. Two nuclear safety directives issued by the European Commission emphasize the fundamental principle of national responsibility for nuclear safety and are implemented in each member country’s legislation. An example of fission implementation is highlighted, referring to the Czech Republic legislation; an example of application in fusion technology is the implementation of the Nuclear Safety Culture in the ITER project, located in Cadarache, in the south of France. The aim of the paper is to highlight the importance of this field, pointing out the cross reference between fission and fusion technology as applied in two countries, with concrete experiences and future prospects for nuclear technologies.

The University of Utah Nuclear Engineering Program (UNEP) has established and continues to build a strong nuclear safety culture by developing class and laboratory soft skills training and activities. An effective safety-culture is essential to nuclear safety and can help prevent errors and misconduct by ensuring expectations and consequences are clearly stated and understood. Academic and research reactors present additional challenges as new students are joining the program and nuclear environment for the first time. The UNEP is leading the way in establishing and building a strong positive nuclear safety culture. Social media and practical training is being developed that is intertwined with class and laboratory work along with integrating industry used tools and software to prepare the future nuclear workforce to meet the needs of the nuclear industry.
