What Is A Psychosocial Risk Assessment?
A Psychosocial Risk Assessment involves the screening of tasks, environments and the workplace itself for underlying psychosocial risk. Employ Health uses evidence-based, validated screening tools to capture this risk and report back to the business in real-time. These assessments lay the foundation for controls and interventions to create a mentally safe workplace.
Employ Health uses two key tools: The People at Work assessment & the APHIRM (Participative Hazard Identification and Risk Management) toolkit. The People at Work assessment is Australia’s only validated psychosocial risk assessment survey. The survey assesses the most common psychosocial risks within your business and identifies and controls risks to psychological health at work. The APHIRM toolkit builds upon evidence-based workplace risk assessments by assessing not only the manual risk of a job but also the psychosocial risk.
Psychosocial Risk Factors At Work
- Group task conflict
- Emotional demands
- Role conflict, overload & ambiguity
- Group relationship conflict
- Cognitive demand
Improve workplace culture
Much like physical risk, identifying psychosocial risk allows you to put in place controls that mitigate their effects.
Compliance
WHS Laws require that employers manage risks from hazards, including work-related psychosocial hazards.
Employer of choice
Many workplaces aspire to be a place that people love to be a part of. Having a mentally healthy workplace is a bedrock of becoming an Employer of Choice.
