ISN, which provides information management services for contractors and suppliers, announced the one-year anniversary of its partnership with Safety Function.

The companies are continuing to expand access to critical safety training through ISNetworld’s Learning Management System (LMS).

The exclusive partnership gives ISN contractor customers access to 10 Safety Function courses, focused on Energy-Based Safety fundamentals, at no additional fee, reinforcing the company’s commitment to helping organizations improve safety, compliance, and risk management across jobsites, with a goal of reducing workplace serious incidents and fatalities (SIFs).

“Preventing serious injuries and fatalities will require a global community aligned around sound science and practical tools,” said Matt Hallowell, Safety Function CEO. “This partnership expands access to energy-based safety knowledge by making high-quality training available to contractors of all sizes. We are proud to work with ISN to make this knowledge more accessible across the industry.”

Courses help contractors better identify and control high-risk hazards

By simplifying access to critical training, ISN continues to empower contractors and hiring clients to prioritize safety while enhancing operational efficiency.

Throughout the past year, ISN contractors proactively assigned more than 17,500 courses to employees through ISN’s LMS and ISN’s Empower app for contractor workers, underscoring strong adoption and a growing focus on proactive hazard recognition.

Included in ISN’s member-exclusive safety toolkit, the courses provide streamlined, on-demand access to high-impact resources, helping contractors better identify and control high-risk hazards across workforces.

Available courses and benefits include:

  • Energy-Based Hazard Recognition tools such as the Energy Wheel, helping contractors better identify and understand high-risk energy sources
  • High-Energy Hazards and Direct Controls focused on practical mitigation strategies for serious workplace risks
  • High-Energy Control Assessments (HECA) providing structured frameworks to help evaluate and improve safety controls
  • Multilingual course offerings in English, Spanish, and French to support global workforce accessibility
  • Seamless access through ISNetworld’s LMS and Empower tools at no additional cost to contractors

“Over the past year, this partnership helped ISN continue to expand subscriber access to hazard awareness training, supporting how contractors manage risk in the field,” said Marie Anderson, ISN Chief Customer Success Officer. “ISN data shows serious incidents are often tied to identifiable, high-energy hazards, and offering Safety Function’s training through ISNetworld helps our customers focus on the exposures that matter most to strengthen safety performance across operations.”

ISN’s expanded Energy-Based Safety fundamentals are also reflected in ISN’s latest SIF White Paper, which correlates root causes of SIF outcomes with the primary energy sources and high-energy hazards.
