Under WHS laws, PCBUs must eliminate or minimise psychosocial risks so far as is reasonably practicable. To have legal effect in a jurisdiction, the model Code of Practice must be approved as a code of practice in that jurisdiction. The first step in the risk management process is to identify the hazards. Your workers may talk about their exposure to psychosocial hazards in different ways.
Psychosocial hazards can cause psychological and physical harm. On average, work-related psychological injuries have longer recovery times, higher costs, and require more time away from work. Managing the risks associated with psychosocial hazards not only protects workers, it also decreases the disruption associated with staff turnover and absenteeism, and may improve broader organisational performance and productivity.
Under the model WHS laws, a person conducting a business or undertaking (PCBU), such as an employer, must eliminate or minimise psychosocial risks so far as is reasonably practicable. The things at work that can harm mental health are known as psychosocial hazards.
Our Team come from diverse backgrounds brining the experience of exposure to different psychosocial hazards. We can help you consult with all workers, in particular workers with vulnerabilities, who are likely to be directly affected by particular psychosocial hazards
All of our consultation will include any Health and Safety Representatives (HSRs) representing your workers. References to consultation with workers in this Code includes consultation with any HSRs where we provide workers with a reasonable opportunity to raise psychosocial health and safety issues, express their views and contribute to decision-making.
When consulting with your workers our team will share relevant information, give workers a reasonable opportunity to express their views, raise health and safety issues and contribute to the decision-making process and take those views into account before making decisions on health and safety matters. We will also advise workers of the outcome of consultations in a timely manner.

Sorting out hybrid work arrangements will require managers to rethink and expand one of strongest proven predictors of team effectiveness: psychological safety. When it comes to psychological safety, managers have traditionally focused on enabling candor and dissent with respect to work content.
The conventional wisdom is that team members need psychological safety to be secure with each other and their leader. Yet, team leaders and all leaders for that matter can benefit from psychological safety too.
Psychological safety is the antidote to what communication scholars call the ‘spiral of silence’ in which dissenting opinions are silenced in a group setting.

In order to foster a trusting environment for collaboration, it’s important for managers and leaders to create psychological safety in virtual teams. This means establishing an atmosphere where team members feel comfortable taking risks and sharing their ideas without fear of retribution.
Why Psychological Safety in the Workplace Matters Now More Than Ever. Psychological safety at work doesn’t mean that everybody is nice to each other all the time.
The good news is that you don’t need your boss or your leadership team to focus on developing team psychological safety to start cultivating it for yourself.
