1.0 Introduction
Office of Science (SC) organizations are expected to maintain a performance assurance process to ensure that Federal staff are implementing their Environment, Safety, and Health (ES&H) requirements and responsibilities. Performance assessments are used to measure SC performance collectively, as well as SC organizations’ ES&H performance against mission, goals, objectives, etc., and to provide feedback and improvement mechanisms for needed improvements and corrective actions. The assurance process ensures SC compliance with program requirements and line management oversight of ES&H responsibilities. This Subject Area identifies the ES&H expectations and requirements relating to performance assurance for Federal functions, including the Central Technical Authority's (CTA's) role in performance assurance (Appendix A in DOE O 450.2, Integrated Safety Management).
The Assessment of Federal Performance, including self-assessments, need to be performed at all levels within the SC Organization (i.e., at the Deputy Director for Field Operations Level, at the Integrated Support Center Level, and at the Field Office Level) and are as specified in DOE O 226.1B, Implementation of Department of Energy Oversight Policy. Procedures on how to perform the assessments are provided in the Subjects Areas of the SC Quality Assurance and Oversight Management System and apply to SC staff responsible for ES&H.
