NRC–A Great Place to Work

NRC is one of the Best Places to Work in the Federal Government. For additional information, see our Employee Satisfaction Surveys and NRC Awards and Recognition pages.

To join our team of highly valued professionals, see the following:

NRC's mission is to regulate the civilian use of nuclear power and nuclear materials in order to protect the health and safety of our people, our environment, and our nation. Hear what current employees, entry-level, and experienced professionals have to say about working at the NRC.

NRC licenses nuclear facilities and the use of nuclear materials, inspects nuclear facilities and materials, and enforces compliance with our strict standards and requirements.

From nuclear power plants that generate electricity - to universities and hospitals that use nuclear materials - to facilities that produce nuclear materials - to storage sites for nuclear waste - NRC is there with the power to monitor, enforce, and protect.

This formidable challenge is met by NRC's diverse and dedicated workforce at several locations. For more information, see our Contact Us About Employment page.
