Title: Clean shaven?
Post by: Cheesehead82 on Aug 01, 2017, 12:46

Hey guys, just curious how other plants handle being clean shaven for respirator and Emergency Response. The plant I'm at requires all OPS to be clean shaven 100% of the time. I've talked with other operators over the years from other places. Some say they only have to be clean shaven for masks fits then are required to keep a shave kit with easy access for an emergency situation. I guess it could be different for ROs vs NLOs because of control room abandonment. Just curious?

At my plant Ops, Security and ERO RPs have to be clean shaven at all times.

A shave kit for an emergency situation?  How big of an emergency can it be if I have time to go shave before responding?
