  • Deliver Human Factors analyses (OPEX reviews, Function Analysis, Task Analysis, Timeline Analysis, Human-System Interface Design and Verification & Validation) to support engineering modifications and design projects. 
  • Integrate HFE into design decisions, ensuring human performance considerations are embedded, not retrofitted. 
  • Partner with multidisciplinary engineering teams, vendors, and client HFE groups to review designs against HFE standards and regulatory expectations. 
  • Support operational and safety initiatives, including Minimum Shift Complement assessments and design changes impacting operations. 
  • Translate complex technical and human-system challenges into clear, actionable recommendations that support safer, more reliable nuclear operations. 
  • Representative projects may include: Human Factors support for nuclear design modifications, Minimum Shift Complement and task/timeline analyses, control room or HMI modernization initiatives, and support to operational or safety-related programs (e.g., SAMGs).

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
