Answer:
Work and kinetic energy are interchangeable, so they are the same, ie. they have the same units. Your work can give kinetic energy to a body and a body with kinetic energy can produce work
.
Hence as energy is conserved we can now see that the work done on the object is equivalent to the energy supplied to the object. Therefore work is a type of energy, and so it is measured in the same units, Joules.

Answer:
Yes both have same unit
joule
The standard unit used to measure energy and work done in physics is the joule, which has the symbol J. In mechanics, 1 joule is the energy transferred when a force of 1 Newton is applied to an object and moves it through a distance of 1 meter.
