People at work – A psychological risk assessment tool for Australian workplaces
People at Work is a free online survey that assesses the psychosocial risk of Australian workplaces.
About the tool
It is Australia's only validated and evidence based psychosocial risk assessment tool with benchmarking that measures psychosocial hazards and factors. The hazards measured by the People at Work survey are based on decades of research highlighting the factors that influence a worker's psychological health and safety.
Send a clear message to workers that you value their mental health and wellbeing and reap the benefits of reduced workers' compensation claims and improved worker productivity, satisfaction and engagement.
How the People at Work platform can help
People at Work can help you comply with your workplace health and safety duties, better manage work-related psychosocial hazards and factors and prevent mental injury
The People at Work platform provides organisations with their results in two reporting formats, a high level summary and a more detailed report that also provides suggestions for improvements in the workplace. Members also have access to automated live reporting and can monitor trends across industry, location, sector and other demographics.
The survey includes information and resources to support businesses implement improvements identified as a result of the survey. This includes interactive learning modules and resources to assist in implementing a psychosocial risk management approach and evaluating the effectiveness of chosen interventions.
