100% 5 star reviews from our clients
Did you know?
Australia’s Work Health & Safety legislation was recently updated to include psychosocial hazards in the workplace. Not sure what that means? You’re not alone!
Psychosocial hazards can put your business, and you personally, at risk of costly and lengthy WorkCover and Fair Work Claims. It’s time to take action and ensure a compliant work environment PLUS experience the productivity benefits that come with it.
Not having a system in place for identifying, assessing, controlling and reviewing Psychosocial hazards now means you’re legally exposed.

Do you Identify, Assess, Control & Review?
Our comprehensive suite of Wellbeing and Safety Initiatives is designed specifically to meet your legal obligations under the WHS Act – to have a system in place which actively identifies, assesses, controls and reviews hazards. A suite of easy to implement tools to transform your workplace into an emotionally and mentally safe haven for your employees, reduce risks and enhance compliance with psychosocial safety management standards.
Our initiatives are the essentials for improving and actively supporting the mental, emotional and physical health of your team members, ensuring a more harmonious, more productive and legally compliant workplace.
What are Psychosocial Hazards?
Psychosocial hazards are (often invisible) threats that can wreak havoc in your organisations if left unaddressed. These hazards can range from bullying, sexual harassment or workplace violence, aggression and intimidation. They also include more common ‘complaints’ like lack of support, poor role clarity, not being provided the right training and even micro-management.
Neglecting your legal duty to actively provide a psychologically safe workplace not only puts your employees at risk but exposes your business to legal liabilities and financial consequences.

What can I say….Jackie and her team brought a fantastic skillset into our business. We liked to think we could do it all, but after some months with Jackie at the helm , assisting us in our compliance, and hiring, its pretty clear HR Tactics will always have a role with us when needed.
