Comcare National Conference 2024
There’s a mountain of research studies explaining the steps organisations can take to improve psychological health and safety – so why aren’t we doing it?
Psychosocial hazards are sometimes confusing! There are mixed messages about which factors to measure, what process to follow and how to get the best results for your organisation.
This presentation cuts through all the noise about psychosocial hazards and follows the real-life story of 8 very different organisations through Bushfires and COVID to an improved workplace culture. The experience has helped to create a blueprint for other organisations to follow, regardless of the size, complexity or industry.
