In this episode, Molly and Magi sit down with two U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB) chemical incident investigators, Lauren Grim, P.E., CFEI and Drew Sahli. Lauren and Drew detail how each of their career paths led them to their current roles, what their jobs as chemical incident investigators are like, and, for those interested in also working at the CSB, the type of background and experience best suited for the job. Next, Molly and Magi ask about the size of the CSB agency, the challenges, surprises, and takeaways they've had during investigations, and their thoughts on how the CSB final investigation reports and videos should be utilized. Finally, Molly and Magi get to ask what all of us have been dying to know; now that the CSB has cleared their backlog of reports, what are they up to next? Be sure to tune in to this episode to find out, and subscribe to the show so you'll be the first to hear "Conversations with the CSB - Part 2" when it becomes available.
