Managing SDS's in your Worx Safety account.

Managing SDS's in your Worx Safety account.

Worx Safety now supports associating existing Safety Data Sheets with individual sites directly from the site's Documents tab under Site SDS. The company-wide SDS library remains the source of truth, but each site can maintain its own linked list drawn from that central record. When adding an SDS to a site, the preferred path is to select an existing document from the SDS dropdown rather than create a duplicate, ensuring every site-level entry stays linked to the master record so updates or deletions in the central library flow through automatically. Multiple SDSs can be added to a site, making it straightforward to track the specific chemicals and documents relevant to that location.
Here is a video of the process, and a step - by - step is below the video if you prefer to read. 





 

1. Keep all SDSs in the company-wide master list 0:00

  • Go to Documents in the left-hand menu.

  • Use the SDS section as the source of truth for all Safety Data Sheets.

  • Upload all SDSs used anywhere in the company here first.

  • This should be the main place where SDSs are maintained for everyone to access.

 

2. Open the site where you want to link SDSs 0:28

  • Navigate to the specific site you want to manage.

  • In the example, the site is Smith Street.

  • Click Documents for that site.

  • Select the Site SDS tab to manage SDSs for that location.

 

3. Add an SDS by linking to an existing master document 0:40

  • Click Add.

  • Prefer selecting from the drop-down list of existing SDSs rather than creating a new document.

  • Choose the SDS you want to link, such as Hydrochloric Acid.

  • Click Update and Link to attach it to the site.

 

4. Repeat for any other site-specific SDSs 0:48

  • Continue adding any other SDSs used at that site.

  • You can link multiple SDSs as needed.

  • These become the chemicals or materials specific to that site.

 

5. Understand that site SDSs stay linked to the master list 1:12

  • The SDSs added to the site are not separate copies.

  • They remain linked back to the main company-wide SDS list.

  • If an SDS is removed from the master list, it will also be removed from the site.

  • This keeps the site SDSs aligned with the company’s official records.

 

6. Use the master SDS list as the single source of truth 1:20

  • Always manage SDSs in the main Documents > SDS area first.

  • Treat the site-level SDS tab as a linked view of that master list.

  • This ensures consistency across all sites and prevents duplicate or outdated SDS records.
