As an independent Moroccan regulatory authority in the fields of nuclear and radiological safety and security, AMSSNuR advocates gender parity as part of its human resources strategy, with an organizational structure with 49% women among its employees and 43% women in positions of responsibility.

Indeed, since its establishment in 2016, AMSSNuR has placed particular importance on gender equality and the achievements of women who contribute significantly to the continuous improvement of nuclear and radiological safety, security and safeguards with the aim of ensuring the protection of the public and the environment against the risks associated with the use of ionizing radiation.

On the occasion of International Women’s Day, AMSSNuR reaffirms its commitments to its female employees and takes this opportunity to celebrate its women and above all, the equality and diversity that characterize the Agency’s staff. To this end, AMSSNuR is among the Moroccan public institutions that adopt the gender approach, in particular through concrete and continuous actions. In this sense, AMSSNuR intends to achieve, through its next recruitment operation, a parity rate of 50%.

In addition, AMSSNuR employees continue to confirm their willingness to share their experiences and expertise with the African member states of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), as well as their determination to contribute to the establishment and strengthening of nuclear and radiological safety and security infrastructures at the national and regional levels. and this through the Forum of Nuclear Regulatory Authorities in Africa (FNRBA) and through bilateral cooperation.

In this sense, AMSSNuR plans to organize in Morocco in 2021, for the first time, a meeting of women in African regulatory authorities (WiNARB) in cooperation with the IAEA, the International Gender Champions Initiative (IGC) and the Global Network of Women in the Nuclear Field (WiN). The aim is to propel cooperation between women in regulatory authorities in the fields of nuclear and radiological safety and security.
