Dutch Safety Board (Onderzoeksraad voor Veiligheid)

The Dutch Safety Board (Onderzoeksraad voor Veiligheid) is an independent organization in the Netherlands that investigates accidents and incidents affecting public safety, such as aviation crashes, train derailments, or infrastructure failures. Its goal is to determine causes and contribute to improved safety measures. The board conducts thorough examinations, gathers evidence, and provides objective reports without assigning blame. Its findings help government agencies, companies, and the public understand what went wrong and how to prevent similar accidents in the future, ultimately enhancing safety standards across various sectors.
