Psychosocial Risk Assessments & Surveys
Workplace health is more than physical safety, it includes psychological health too. WHS laws across Australia now require employers to eliminate or minimise psychosocial risks so far as is reasonably practicable.
Epigroup has a dedicated team of registered psychologists who specialise in psychosocial risk management. Using the latest evidence-based tools and methodologies, we uncover the real factors affecting your people, and translate these findings into practical solutions:
- identifying and assessing psychosocial hazards across your workplace
- running surveys and consultations that give your people a voice
- designing tailored controls that protect wellbeing and meet compliance obligations
The outcome? A safer, healthier, and more engaged workforce—backed by expert guidance and systems that satisfy both regulators and operational realities.
Psychosocial Strategy Development
Creating a mentally healthy workplace takes more than meeting compliance requirements. It needs a clear and practical strategy that works for your people.
We’ll partner with you to design a tailored psychosocial strategy that addresses the unique challenges of your workplace. Whether you’re building a proactive wellbeing framework, responding to identified risks, or embedding psychosocial health into your wider business strategy, we can help.
The result is a practical, evidence-based strategy that fosters more engaged teams, while meeting regulatory expectations.
Psychosocial Risk Training & Awareness
Developed and delivered by our registered psychologists and safety specialists, our sessions are interactive, practical, and designed to stick. We will:
- challenge boards and executives to lead with accountability and vision
- equip leaders and supervisors to design better work and step in early when risks appear
- empower workers and HSRs with simple, practical tools to recognise issues and support their mates
We don’t just transfer knowledge, we build confidence and shift mindsets. The result is a workforce that knows what psychosocial safety looks like, and how to make it part of everyday work.
