Psychosocial Safety and Mental Health First Aid
At Veretis, we focus on psychosocial safety and mental health first aid services. Our strategic approach is designed to facilitate the evolution of workplace culture and productivity, while also addressing psychosocial risks. Whether your organisation chooses to prioritise one or both of these transformative processes, we are committed to helping you achieve your workplace goals.
Psychosocial Well-being And Risk Mitigation Services
Does your workplace have policies in place that adhere to the ISO 45003 and Safework Australia’s model Code of Practice for ‘Persons conducting Business or Undertakings’? Does your workplace have policies to manage psychosocial hazards at work?20
On average, work-related psychological injuries have longer recovery times, higher costs, and require more time away from work. Managing the risks associated with psychosocial hazards not only protects workers, but it also decreases the disruption associated with staff turnover and absenteeism and may improve broader organisational performance and productivity.
Psychosocial Hazards That May Arise at Work Include
- Job demands
- Low job control
- Poor support
- Lack of role clarity
- Poor organisational change management
- inadequate reward and recognition
- Poor organisational justice
- Traumatic events or material
- Remove or isolated work
- Poor physical environment
- Violence and aggression
- Bullying
- Harassment including sexual harassment
- Conflict or poor workplace relationships and interactions
The Psychosocial Well-being and Risk Mitigation (PWARM) services offered by Veretis provides comprehensive and professional consultations and programs to cover the five major areas of:
Psychosocial well-being and enhancement strategy
Identifying hazards
Assessing risks
Controlling risks
