ISN and Safety Function Partnership Expands Energy-Based Safety Training, Reaching 17,500 Course Assignments in One Year

ISN, a global leader in contractor and supplier information management, is marking the one-year anniversary of its partnership with Safety Function, which has expanded access to critical energy-based safety training through ISNetworld’s Learning Management System (LMS). Since the collaboration was announced on June 4, 2026, ISN contractor customers have had access to 10 Safety Function courses at no additional fee, focusing on Energy-Based Safety fundamentals to help organizations improve safety, compliance, and risk management across jobsites.

The partnership aims to reduce workplace serious incidents and fatalities by equipping contractors with practical tools grounded in sound science. “Preventing serious injuries and fatalities will require a global community aligned around sound science and practical tools,” said Matt Hallowell, CEO at Safety Function. “This partnership expands access to energy-based safety knowledge by making high-quality training available to contractors of all sizes.” Over the past year, ISN contractors have proactively assigned more than 17,500 courses to employees through ISN’s LMS and Empower® app, indicating strong adoption and a growing focus on proactive hazard recognition.

The courses, included in ISN’s member-exclusive safety toolkit, provide streamlined, on-demand access to high-impact resources, helping contractors better identify and control high-risk hazards. ISN’s expanded energy-based safety fundamentals are also reflected in its latest Serious Injury and Fatality (SIF) White Paper, which correlates root causes of SIF outcomes with primary energy sources and high-energy hazards. Available courses include Energy-Based Hazard Recognition tools such as the Energy Wheel, which helps contractors identify and understand high-risk energy sources; High-Energy Hazards and Direct Controls focusing on practical mitigation strategies; and High-Energy Control Assessments (HECA®) providing structured frameworks to evaluate and improve safety controls.

The courses are offered in English, Spanish, and French to support global workforce accessibility, and are seamlessly accessible 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, Chief Customer Success Officer at ISN. “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.”
