CSB Receives YouTube “Silver Play Button” Award

Yesterday, the Chemical Safety Board announced that it had received a “Silver Play Button” award from YouTube for “having more than 100,000 subscribers for the agency’s YouTube channel @USCSB.”  The CSB’s announcement noted that:

“The CSB’s safety video program is an important tool to enhance public safety, protect workers and communities, and inform the chemical industry of ways to help prevent catastrophic chemical accidents.  The CSB is a small federal agency with a small annual budget, and the agency’s YouTube channel has been an efficient and effective way for the agency to share the many important findings and safety lessons from the CSB’s investigations to a very large audience. The CSB’s safety videos are widely used for safety training throughout the chemical industry and also are increasingly being used in curricula to help educate chemical engineers and safety professionals about chemical hazards.”
