Personal Accountability is termed the basic and most important trait of nuclear safety culture. It's everyone's responsibility to ensure safety at nuclear sites by avoiding complacency and continuously challenging existing activities and conditions to identify disparities that might result in inappropriate action or error.
Troy Biesterveld also focused on the importance of effective safety communication of leadership that demonstrates a commitment to safety in their behaviors and decisions that affect and support nuclear safety. Making rigorous, systematic, and thorough decisions are also mandatory to create a respectful work environment and opportunities to learn about ways to ensure safety.

According to Troy Biesterveld, a safety-conscious work environment (SCWE) is necessary to maintain where every personnel feels free to raise safety concerns without fear of intimidation, retaliation, discrimination, or harassment.
Implementing the process of planning and controlling work activities at a nuclear site is also crucial to maintain health and safety.
