ENSI, the Swiss Federal Nuclear Safety Inspectorate is the national regulatory body with responsibility for the nuclear safety and security of Swiss nuclear facilities.
ENSI is well aware that successful supervisory work depends not only on the technical qualifications of each and every employee, but also on their values and their ability to work constructively together.
“We strengthen safety.” The Swiss Federal Nuclear Safety Inspectorate has developed a new mission statement under this motto. It was developed with the involvement of every employee and replaces the mission statement from the year 2009.
Radiological protection always begins by avoiding unnecessary exposure. One of the guiding principles behind radiological protection is therefore that the radiation burden on people should be kept as low as is reasonably achievable.
150 employees of the Swiss Federal Nuclear Safety Inspectorate ENSI work every day in various fields for the nuclear safety of the Swiss population.
ENSI’s successful supervisory work largely depends on the quality of its staff. It is not only their experience and special qualifications that are needed, but also their values, their attitude and their ability to enter into a critical, but constructive relationship with operators and with the stakeholders in politics and society.
