HSR Conference 2020 – Risks to Psychosocial Health

For the past several years running, WorkCover claims for psychological injury claims are through the roof.

 

We’re always getting questions from health and safety representatives (HSRs) about psych health. What are the risks, how do you identify them, and how can I address them? Sometimes psychosocial health can be tougher to understand in the context of a HSR, but HSRs have all the same powers under the Act to address psychosocial hazards in their workplace, and employers have the same duty to address these hazards as they would a physical hazard.

 

Workload, workplace culture, occupational and gender violence all contribute to the psychosocial health of an employee. Register now to secure your spot and learn how to start to address these critical issues in your workplace.
