Being a third generation advanced nuclear plant type, AP1000 has the characteristics of modular construction, “Open-Top” method lifting, etc, which simultaneously present a new challenge for site HSE management. Through studying Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) site management of the first AP1000 nuclear plant (ANP) under construction, this research analyzes the difference of HSE management aspects, such as management commitment and responsibility, HSE awareness and concept, training and education, HSE reward & punishment system and other aspects between China and the west. It also puts forward the specific idea for developing site HSE management system suitable for ANP technology characteristic and China’s actual conditions, which will provide a guarantee for the safe and smooth construction of ANP project.
