Sellafield Ltd shared its approach to continuous improvement with more than 400 nuclear leaders from 38 countries at the World Association of Nuclear Operators (WANO) General Meeting, held in Tokyo, Japan, in September, the company reported on 7 October 2026.
Chief Operating Officer Roddy Miller spoke at the event, which brought together leaders to discuss safety, skills development, risk management and the use of new technology. According to the report, Miller described how Sellafield encourages teams to look for better ways of working, learn from experience and solve problems together. He said continuous improvement must be part of normal work rather than a separate initiative, programme or campaign.
The meeting also saw the launch of WANO's new Culture of Continuous Improvement Framework, intended to help organisations learn and improve continually. Sellafield said it has worked with WANO for more than 25 years, using the relationship to learn from organisations worldwide and to share its own experience. WANO supports nuclear organisations in sharing good practice to improve safety and performance.
