Psychosocial Risk Management for Human Resources

Bridging the Gap Between WHS & HR for a Safer, Healthier Workplace

💡 HR professionals play a critical role in managing psychosocial hazards—but are you equipped with the right tools, knowledge, and strategies to address them effectively?

Psychosocial risk management isn’t just a work health and safety (WHS) issue—it sits at the intersection of HR, workplace culture, compliance, and risk management. HR leaders are often first to see the signs of workplace stress, burnout, bullying, and mental health concerns, but many organisations fail to integrate HR into their formal psychosocial risk frameworks.

This 2-hour live, instructor-led online course provides HR professionals with the knowledge, strategies, and risk-based approach needed to proactively manage psychosocial hazards, support employees, and ensure compliance with evolving WHS and employment laws.

Who Should Attend?

✅ HR Managers & Business Partners

✅ People & Culture Leaders

✅ WHS Professionals Looking to Strengthen HR Collaboration

✅ Senior Leaders & Risk Managers Overseeing Workplace Culture

✅ HR & Safety Advisors in High-Risk & High-Pressure Industries
