About
A neutral resource for occupational health software buyers
We exist to make the research phase easier and more honest. Here's exactly how we work — and how we keep it balanced.
What we do
CompareOccHealthSoftware.com compares occupational health software so buyers can shortlist confidently. We score 20 dedicated platforms across 24 capabilities in 5 categories, and track 55 tools in total — including the adjacent background screening, lab, HR, and occupational clinic services buyers run into along the way. Everything is organized around one idea: help you make a good decision before you ever talk to a salesperson.
Our methodology
- 1
The same checklist for everyone
Every vendor is evaluated against an identical capability checklist. No vendor gets a custom yardstick.
- 2
How vendors make the list
We survey the market — public vendor directories, buyer guides, and review sites — to find candidates, then independently research each product against this checklist before publishing it. Directories are only a source of names; the evaluation is our own.
- 3
Compared vs. directory listings
Only dedicated occupational health software is scored on the capability grid. Adjacent tools buyers run into — background screening, lab and drug testing, HR and payroll suites, EHS platforms, and occupational clinic networks — are listed in the directory for context, with an honest category, but not scored, because grading them on a software matrix they were never built for would be misleading.
- 4
Public sources first
We compile information from each vendor's own documentation and product pages, third-party sources, and direct vendor input, and verify it ourselves. When something can't be confirmed, we label it 'Unconfirmed' rather than guess.
- 5
Capabilities, not paid rankings
Vendors are listed alphabetically. There is no pay-to-rank, and the order never reflects a commercial relationship.
- 6
Living data
Products evolve constantly. We treat the grid as a starting point for your own evaluation and update it as we learn more.
How we score support levels
For each platform, an editor works through the same 24-capability checklist and assigns one support level per capability based on what the evidence shows. We prioritize the vendor's own documentation, product pages, and release notes, supported by reputable third-party sources and direct vendor input. A capability is only marked Built-inwhen public evidence indicates it ships natively; if delivery is limited, configurable, or packaged as a separate module, it's scored Partial or Add-onaccordingly. When we can't confirm a capability from a credible source, we default to Unconfirmed rather than assume — an absence of evidence is never scored as a feature.
How to read support levels
Each capability is marked with one of five levels. These describe how a capability is typically delivered — not a quality score.
- Built-in — available natively, out of the box.
- Partial — supported, but with limits or via configuration.
- Add-on — available as a paid add-on or separate module.
- Not offered — not offered today.
- Unconfirmed — we couldn't confirm; check with the vendor.
Update cadence
We review the directory end to end on a recurring basis — the last full review was June 2026, shown as a “Last reviewed” date on the pages it applies to. Between full reviews, we apply corrections and capability changes as we verify them, so a vendor's profile can be updated at any time when we confirm something has changed. Because products evolve constantly, treat the grid as a researched starting point and confirm anything decision-critical directly with the vendor.
Editorial standards
A few commitments keep this resource trustworthy:
Independence
Scoring is editorial. Vendors can't buy a higher support level, a better position, or a more favorable write-up — and no vendor reviews or approves their scores before we publish.
Sponsorship is separate and labeled
Some pages may carry a clearly labeled sponsored placement. Those placements never influence how any platform is scored, ordered, or described in the comparison data, which is kept strictly separate from advertising.
Evidence over claims
We score what we can verify from credible sources, not marketing language. Anything we can't confirm is labeled Unconfirmed rather than assumed in a vendor's favor.
Corrections welcome
If something is wrong or out of date, we want to fix it. Send the capability, the correct level, and a public source, and we'll review it promptly.
Not advice
This is research to support your evaluation, not legal, medical, or compliance advice. Validate regulatory and clinical requirements with qualified professionals.
Vendors: request a correction
Are you a vendor and see something out of date or inaccurate? We genuinely want to fix it. Reach out with the capability, the correct support level, and a public source we can reference, and we'll review it.
