Can we use both Workhub and HitchGuardian?

Yes, and that is the recommended setup. HitchGuardian has an active integration with Workhub. Certifications and training records flow from Workhub into HitchGuardian and are checked against job assignments before dispatch. Workhub stays your training and compliance system. HitchGuardian adds the readiness layer that verifies the training record against the specific job before the truck rolls.

Does HitchGuardian replace Workhub?

No. They own different jobs. Workhub manages training records, delivers courses, and tracks cert expiry. HitchGuardian connects certifications to scheduling and job requirements, and signs off on the assignment before dispatch. Replacing one with the other would leave a gap. The strongest setup is both, connected through the integration.

What does the Workhub integration look like?

Certifications stored in Workhub flow into HitchGuardian automatically. When a dispatcher builds a crew for a job, HitchGuardian pulls the worker's current cert status from the integration and checks it against the job requirements. If a cert is expired or missing, the dispatcher sees the flag. The integration means the coordinator does not need to check both systems manually.

When Workhub is the right call

If your primary need is managing safety training records, delivering online safety courses to your workforce, and tracking certification expiry for compliance reporting, Workhub is a proven platform. Operators who have a coordinator who never misses a cert at dispatch but who need a centralized system for training delivery and record-keeping get more out of Workhub alone than they would out of HitchGuardian alone. Many of our prospects already run Workhub. We do not ask them to replace it.

When HitchGuardian is the better fit

If the failure that costs you money is the wrong crew rolling out at 5:30 AM with an expired H2S Alive or no confined space clearance for the job, the training record alone does not prevent that. Workhub stores the cert. HitchGuardian checks the cert against the specific job requirements and flags the gap before the truck rolls. The two systems are strongest together: Workhub as the training record, HitchGuardian as the dispatch gate that verifies the record against the assignment.
