Update to Online Training (4.64.1)
Hello folks,
This release contains changes to the Online Training component. Most changes are present on the Admin dash but there is a small change to the Worker dash as well.
Admin dash changes:
Workhub-provided courses can now be removed from and added to the course list as desired by admins
Custom courses have been integrated into the main course list instead of existing in their own tab. The process for creating a custom course has been streamlined.
Filters have been created for the course list to allow easier viewing
Additional columns have been added to the course list, including separate columns for required and optional completion, Active status, and Certificate connection
Lessons will remain selectable, but at least one must remain for a course to be present in the course list
Classroom Results tool is now its own tab within a lesson rather than a button function within the Quiz Questions tab
Worker dash changes:
the paginator for the Worker course list has been removed and instead the list will scroll through all the results
Filters have been created and applied to the Worker list, including filters for To Do, Done, and Optional. The page will default to show To Do first. If there are no courses To Do, the filter will instead show All
The courses will show in order of Priority, with Critical priority courses showing at the top first and Low priority courses showing at the bottom of the list
Workhub Version 4.64
Hi folks! Our release on Friday, November 8th 2024 is for version 4.64 and includes mostly smaller bug fixes and quality of life improvements.
Bug Fixes:
In Action Items, an issue with the source for an action item not appearing in the PDF list download has been resolved, and the list should now update properly when an Action item is deleted. Our Notify By SMS option was still appearing when the option was disabled by an administrator, but we've addressed that and the option will no longer appear if SMS has been disabled. In Assets, we resolved an issue affecting the incorrect generation of our Asset QR Codes. In Incidents & Hazards, we addressed a problem with the information on our Incident Chart generating differently from the information in the Incident list. In our Materials & SDS component, we fixed a problem affecting our Location filtering option. Finally, within our Workers component, we resolved a problem wherein the information for a Supervisor's Direct Reports' compliance was incorrectly showing as their own instead of the Worker's.
Improvements:
For improvements, we've implemented our in-page scrolling option and column selector functionality to a few new pages. This functionality is being rolled out across all of Workhub a few pages at a time. The changes for this update apply to:
Polls (Worker side)
Safety Meetings (Worker side)
Behaviour Observations (Worker side)
Workhub version 4.56.0
Hi folks! Today's release updates Workhub to version 4.56.0 and includes some big changes to our Audit Standards tool.
We have updated our Audit tool to Audit Preparation, and with that name change comes a host of functionality changes. You'll now be able to undertake multiple audits using the same standard, add details for your auditor and your audit targets, create Action Items from your audit checks, and keep track of your goals and targets with visual aids and history logs for all your changes.
With that change also necessitates the archiving of our old Audit Standards. Any Audits you had previously worked on or had in progress will be moved to our Legacy tab. Audits housed in that Legacy tab will be editable until December 31, 2024, and after that date they will be reference only.
We're also releasing 20+ bug fixes, including fixes for missing fields in our Incidents & Hazards CSV download, Safety Meetings tweaks, translation troubles in Certificates, and the addition of a new time zone (Malaysia, GMT +8).
Have a happy, safe Easter weekend!
Workhub Version 4.55.0
It's been a minute since we last published news regarding our releases, but we're back to let you know about some exciting changes! Version 4.55.0 was released on Friday, March 8th, 2024.
The Nitty Gritty:
We've made major changes to our Surveys component, allowing you to collect data with more anonymity and greater consistency, and we've added a couple of downloadable options within the component to help you better track the information generated by your Worker's responses.
We've implemented a new table structure in several of our components that allows you to sort the items in the list using arrows at each column top, control column widths, rearrange your columns, and click into items in the list without resetting the list back to the top. We're releasing it piecemeal through the Admin dash to make sure it fits everywhere we want it just right. Check out the progress of this new functionality in Safety Meetings, Behaviour Observations, Incidents & Hazards, Polls, Other Forms, and our new Surveys component.
Changes have been made in Policies and Procedures for better submission, viewing, and handling of comments. Each component has additional Permissions for comments, so be sure to review those if your admins need to view, review, and engage with comments!
We've made improvements to the Checkout process for Rewards, so Workers will now have their previous addresses saved for a quicker, more accurate checkout each time.
Little Things that Matter:
30 bug fixes, including:
fixes for charts/graphs misbehaving
adjustments to Fillable Certificate file field lengths and improved function on the Worker dash
addressing malfunction of procedures JHA step builder giving error notifications

Do you know what is even more invigorating than that? A new release from Workhub! Here are some of the highlights:

Happy Monday! Hope you all had a great weekend. Here at Workhub, we had a great company bbq with lots of good eats. This release has some new functionality for your consumption too.
Action Items had a whole revamp. There are many little goodies, like how you can now upload images and documents at any point in the action item process, more intuitive controls and more! 🌠
Infinite scroll is rolling out! You’ll see this amazing new feature in Procedures first! What does this mean? No longer fiddling with the paginator, instead you can just scrroolllll. 🖱️
We had a bug with inactive policies reverting to a prior version when they were made active, which has been resolved. 🐛

Sorting by column headers on Online Training will organize optional items too.

We added an “expires every” column to the online training report which shows the option you have selected under the course settings. 🤓

We’ve updated the filters for inactive workers. Any positions without hr & notes permissions will simply see the inactive filter on the workers list, and other statuses like released or terminated will be greyed out. When viewing inactive workers, the compliance column will only say inactive and not terminated or eligible for rehire. For any Admins with hr/notes permissions, all of this functionality will stay the same. 📏
