Psychological safety and Psychosocial hazards and associated risks are an increasing focus of attention when it comes to safety in our industry.  To better enable member companies to access and share resources a one-stop Psychological and Psychosocial Safety Resources Portal has been created collating all related materials that have been developed / endorsed by the Health Working Group.

Our aim is to ensure that all workplaces are Psychologically safe working environments where everyone believes that they will not be punished or humiliated for speaking up with ideas, questions, concerns or mistakes, and that the team is safe for interpersonal risk taking.

We also want to ensure that we mitigate against Psychosocial Hazards, which may cause psychological or physical harm, and arise from (or in relation to):

  1. The design or management of work
  2. The working environment
  3. Plant at a workplace, or
  4. Workplace interactions or behaviours

Existing resources and links included on the Portal include:

The Portal also provides a facility to share your psychological and psychosocial safety resources. 

Submit a resource, complete the online form. Attach your file(s) and submit.  A Health Working Group representative will be in touch to facilitate and finalise the sharing of your resources with our members.
