Backed by PE firm Waud Capital Partners, Texas-headquartered HSI was founded in 1977 with an initial focus on emergency care and workplace safety training. HSI has continued to build on its speciality as an EHS training and compliance eLearning provider, but has also established a foundation in EHS software through strategic acquisitions. It was the acquisition of Australia-based EHS software vendor Donesafe in February 2020 that formed the foundation of its EHS capabilities. Recently, it added Skillko, a workforce compliance management firm, to its arsenal. In November 2024 HSI released a new ESG management solution and in March 2023 unveiled its new UI, providing a fresh system look and feel, while harmonizing its systems and customer modules in one platform. HSI offers a range of key products and solutions, including safety training, compliance software, and workforce development tools, with a presence in 71 countries, serving over 22,000 customers.
