Years later, the world’s largest nuclear plant was to open in Japan, but due to the mistake of an employee doing work from home, it was closed before opening. In view of the safety lapses, the company running the nuclear plant was ordered to shut it down by the Japanese regulators. Actually, a careless employee working from home has increased the problems of the company. According to the company, the careless employee had put the necessary documents related to the nuclear plant on the roof of his car and forgot. The oblivious employee kept on running the car happily and the important papers kept on the roof of the car kept flying in the air. The limit was reached when a local person got the necessary papers of the nuclear plant.
The company operating the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Plant in Japan’s Niigata Prefecture has had to pay damages for the employee’s negligence. The nuclear plant, which has been closed for 12 years due to safety flaws and flouting a strict regulatory process, will no longer be able to reopen. It was closed after the 2011 Fukushima disaster.
The Nuclear Regulation Authority, which oversees the safety protocols for Japan’s 33 nuclear reactors, decided last week to ban the power station from starting operations. The regulatory authority said that the measures taken to start it are not enough.
On the other hand, the company running the nuclear plant claims that it will improve its work. The company said that it was a big mistake on our part that the necessary documents were recovered by the local people. The company said it has warned its employees and management. The company will ensure that all employees follow strict rules before moving documents and information off-site.
