The Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004 (OHS Act) requires employers to provide and maintain a working environment that is safe and without risks to health, so far as is reasonably practicable. This responsibility includes providing and maintaining safe systems of work to prevent psychological injuries.
In this session, we will discuss psychosocial risks in different work contexts and how employers can identify, assess, and control those risks to prevent harm to their workers and ensure they are meeting their obligations under the OHS Act.
