SafetySkills vs Workhub

SafetySkills provides environmental, occupational health and safety, and emergency response training through courseware and a learning management system. With SafetySkills Direct, administrators can add learners, assign courses, and track progress. Creating an account is free, but charges apply when courses are assigned; one free course is also offered each month. Courses require learners to complete tasks and answer questions correctly. The LMS supports online and offline tracking, automatic assignments, custom reporting, learner groups, uploaded content, and certificates with a company logo. Courses can be launched on mobile devices and tablets while retaining progress tracking and certificates. The catalog spans workplace subjects and industries, with content in multiple languages, although availability varies by course. SafetySkills says its courseware is SCORM and AICC compliant and works with most leading LMS platforms. OSHA-authorized courses are outside the standard catalog, distributed through the University of South Florida, and carry an additional per-learner fee. The Direct plan is billed per credit, with credit use varying by course and learner count. Supported platforms include Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows.

Workhub is a workplace safety and compliance management system for organizations that need to communicate programs and manage worker requirements. It brings together policies, procedures, certificates, competencies, incident tracking, inspections, safety meetings, forms and bulletins, alongside audit-trail support. The service includes a library of more than 80 training courses, and organizations can create courses with custom content and quizzes. Worksite Screening supports custom questionnaires and access logs for workers and visitors. WorkerID provides mobile access to compliance data, with online and offline use; Workhub’s mobile-friendly application is a progressive web app that can be added to an iPhone or Android home screen, rather than downloaded from an app store. The Free plan includes limited file uploads and support and no data exports. Standard costs $3.00 per month per user, with a minimum of three users, and adds features such as custom branding, location-based assignments and data imports and exports. SMS notifications are available only in Canada and the USA.
