Major chemical accidents carry risks to employees, the environment, the community, and to company reputations. As regulatory agencies and the public continue to focus on chemical management practices and ESG gains in importance, companies have a growing urgency to learn from and prevent these incidents. Webinar attendees will have an opportunity to learn more about incident investigations from The U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB) with a focus on gathering data on common causes and failure modes and severity data, as well as any links between the facility’s EPA compliance history and major incidents.
