The Secretary of Energy has stated he has three specific expectations for every manager:
-
The first is the expectation of managers to understand that they are responsible for ensuring the safety of our employees and of those communities surrounding our facilities.
-
Second, to understand that they should instill a respect for and the observation of the highest standards of security.
-
And, third, every manager is expected to help build a culture where merit determines promotion and hiring, and diversity is viewed as a key to recruiting and retaining the best people.
