Psychosocial Hazard Training
Psychosocial Hazard Training
Our Psychosocial Risk Management services are designed to help organisations meet legal requirements for identifying and managing psychosocial hazards, with tailored support across key areas of the process.
Training in Psychosocial Hazards
We recognise that while training is crucial, it alone cannot eliminate workplace hazards. However, it plays a vital role in raising awareness and equipping employees with the knowledge and skills to manage risks effectively. We offer comprehensive workshops and resources designed to help workplaces identify and address key psychosocial hazards, including but not limited to:
-
Designed for senior leaders, this workshop focuses on building confidence and capability in identifying and supporting their team’s wellbeing. By providing insights into some of the key psychological needs that drive human behaviour, participants will learn a practical framework to maximise engagement when it comes to workplace interactions.
-
This general awareness session provides an introduction to psychosocial hazards in the workplace and their impact on employee wellbeing. Participants will explore how prolonged stress can contribute to psychological and physical harm, gain an understanding of employer and employee legal obligations, and learn how to identify common psychosocial risks. The session also outlines practical harm prevention and risk management strategies, along with resources to support the creation of a safe and healthy work environment.
This session is available as a 60-minute session for a general audience and as a 90-minute session for people leaders.

Change is inevitable – in our work, our lives, and the world around us. While uncertainty can feel uncomfortable, it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With the right mindset, tools, and strategies, change can become something we navigate with confidence rather than resistance.
This 60 minute session equips participants with tools to manage and navigate change and uncertainty effectively. It explores common unhealthy thinking styles that can hinder growth, performance, and decision-making during periods of transition, alongside problem solving techniques that build psychological flexibility. Participants gain practical strategies to strengthen resilience, reduce resistance, and build high performing teams that can adapt and thrive in the face of change.

-
This session focuses on strategies to de-escalate strong emotions and regulate our own responses in challenging situations.

The session also covers how to defuse tense situations and introduces a three-part assertive conversation framework to effectively communicate your message.
