An introduction to managing psychosocial hazards 

Addressing psychosocial hazards is not only a key part of your health and safety obligations as a leader, it helps improve organisational performance and productivity. This learning bite guides leaders briefly through the four-step risk management process aimed at identifying, assessing and mitigating psychosocial hazards. We highlight the importance of consulting with team members at each step of the process, and run an example though the steps to check understanding and instil confidence and readiness.
This microlearn will help leaders to:

• recognise their specific obligations in relation to psychosocial hazard prevention
• recognise the key benefits of managing psychosocial hazards
• identify ways to identify, assess and mitigate hazards using the four-step risk management process
