The short answer
Both are proudly Australian safety platforms, so this isn't about local versus foreign. It's about scale.
myosh is an enterprise HSEQ platform with more than two decades behind it. A large module library and genuine depth in advanced risk methodology — Bowtie analysis and Critical Control Management — make it a serious choice for large and high-consequence organisations in mining, defence, aviation, government and heavy industry.
Worx is a WHS system built for SMEs in construction, trades and service. Contractor compliance, SWMS, inductions, LMS and QR site check-in, ready to use out of the box and priced for a growing business — not an enterprise rollout.
If you run a major-hazard operation, you may need myosh's depth. If you run SME sites, you need control now, without the overhead. This is one of our honest platform comparisons.

Where myosh is the better choice
We'll be straight about this. myosh is a strong, deep platform and the right pick when:
- You're a large or high-consequence organisation — mining, defence, aviation, government, heavy manufacturing.
- You need advanced risk methodology: Bowtie analysis and Critical Control Management are genuine myosh strengths.
- You want a broad HSEQ module library covering injuries and return-to-work, chemical registers and more.
- You require enterprise controls — SSO, granular permissions, audit logging and open APIs — and have the resources to configure them.
If that's you, myosh is built for it.
Where Worx wins
Worx is built for SMEs that need control on site, not an enterprise HSEQ deployment.
Ready now, not a configuration project. Enterprise HSEQ platforms are deep, but that depth takes setup. Worx works out of the box: contractor compliance, SWMS, inductions, LMS and site check-in, running the week you start.
Right-sized, and priced that way. Worx is transparent and plan-based (Core from $349/month, Growth from $599/month), with worker and subcontractor portal access at no extra cost and a 45-day money-back guarantee — not a custom enterprise quote.
Built for site, not the risk department. Native QR check-in shows who's on site right now. SWMS is signed off where the work happens. Every licence, insurance and competency is tracked with alerts before expiry. You don't need Bowtie diagrams to run a safe SME site — you need visibility and control in the field.
Made for construction and trades. Worx is mobile-first and fast to adopt for the way SME construction, trade and service teams actually work, with native integrations into Simpro, Procore, Aroflo, Pylon and Ascora, plus Zapier.
A track record. More than 500,000 safe check-ins to worksites. That's not a feature. That's proof it holds up in the field.
