The U.S. Chemical Safety Board (CSB) is an independent federal agency that investigates chemical accidents. The agency's board members are appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate. CSB investigations look into all aspects of the chemical accidents, including physical causes such as equipment failures as well as inadequacies in safety regulations, industry standards, and management systems. The Board does not issue citations or fines but does make safety recommendations to corporations, industry organizations, labor unions, and government agencies.

CSB Safety Videos depict the root causes of major accidents that have actually occurred and describe the good safety practices that can prevent similar accidents at other facilities. It is our hope that these videos, like all the work of the CSB, will help the cause of promoting safer workplaces.
