Listen "Modernizing Safety Investigations the Human Way with Crystal Blasius"
Episode Synopsis
"Mind-blowingly so, every three hours, there is a person or vehicle that negatively encounters railroad equipment. Every three hours." Crystal Blasius
OK, everyone, this one is powerful. In this episode of The Canary Report: Safety & Risk Management, I sit down with Crystal Blasius, Director of Safety Investigations at Amtrak, to unpack her incredible journey from answering a newspaper ad to reshaping national railroad safety. Crystal shares how she’s modernizing investigation protocols, bringing human factors into safety management systems, and making space for inclusivity in a traditionally rigid industry. We also dive into the real human side of incident response, supporting investigators and first responders through mental health challenges.
