Course Overview

This course focuses on the general principles applied to the prevention and management of psychosocial hazards in the workplace. Practical guidance will be provided for managers, supervisors, and team leaders to identify exposure to psychosocial hazards in the workplace, such as stress, fatigue, burnout, as well as bullying, harassment, violence, aggression, discrimination and misconduct; to develop and implement strategies to manage and reduce the risks.

ISO 45003 is the first global standard giving practical guidance on managing psychosocial health in the workplace. It includes information on how to recognise the psychosocial hazards that can affect workers and offers examples of effective – often simple – actions that can be taken to manage these and improve employee wellbeing.

Duration and Delivery

This course offers two options:

  • a full-day (8 hours)
  • a half-day (4 hours)

Both options are available either as face-to-face sessions for up to 18 participants or as virtual sessions for up to 9 participants.

Course Customisation

To ensure our training meets the specific needs of your organisation, our Instructional Design Team will facilitate a virtual meeting to customise and contextualise the content.

This includes the activities in line with your workplace procedures and practices, and develop suitable activities, scenarios, and workplace application strategies to ensure meaningful outcomes.

Course Inclusions

  • Workbook – a take-away workbook of content, activities and notes from the workshop
  • Customisation is included in the course cost
