Take charge of psychosocial risks. It’s your legal duty
Prevent toxic workplaces. It’s the law.
Psychosocial hazards aren’t just about stress or long hours. They’re risks in how work is designed, organised, or managed that can cause serious psychological harm, such as excessive workloads, lack of support, bullying, harassment, and toxic cultures. These are no longer just ‘HR issues’; they are critical safety risks under WHS laws.
Leaders now have a positive duty to identify, assess, and control these hazards. Failing to do so can lead to Category 1 offences, with fines up to $16.6 million for organisations and 20 years’ jail or $3.3 million for officers, or Category 2 offences, with fines up to $2.3 million for organisations.
Leaders are also responsible for preventing toxic work environments by stopping sexual harassment and sex-based harassment, which both contribute to a harmful workplace culture. Failing to act risks breaching multiple laws, including the Respect@Work Act, discrimination laws, and WHS legislation.
It’s time for leaders to take action. Here’s how we help you manage psychosocial risks effectively:
