With increasing legislative focus on psychosocial hazards, and more and more evidence of the devastating impact on employees, it’s never been more important for Australian employers to review their existing health and safety frameworks to ensure they are managing their duty of care to employees.

Psychosocial hazards include all those factors that increase risk of work-related stress, including bullying, unreasonable job demands, low role clarity or traumatic events or materials. All can lead to psychological or physical harm ranging from heart disease to insomnia and demand that employers prioritise system workplace change, rather than relying on superficial wellness fixes.

Sharing advice for how businesses can build safer workplaces – and the risks and consequences of failing to do so - Law Squared Employment Lawyer, Andrew Brooks, and Howden’s People Risk Partner + Psychologist, Shehan Peiris, will be joined by Culture Amp’s General Counsel + Company Secretary, Sarah Tinsley, to share real life stories, recent case law and best practice approaches for addressing the root cause of psychosocial hazards and creating systemic change.

Whether you’re an in-house legal professional, people + culture professional, or responsible for people management, this will be a must-watch webcast as we explore the practical steps for creating happier, healthier and safer workplaces.
