Optional Extras to support your PSYCHOSOCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT JOURNEY

Psychosocial risk management might be daunting and quite overwhelming for many businesses as they have limited in-house experience and knowledge in this space. That is why Mental Health Movement have developed several optional extras to make psychosocial risk management as easy to understand and implement as possible for your organisation. These include:

Support gaining leadership commitment and buy-in for managing psychosocial risks

Mental Health Movement offer a high-level presentation that focuses on your organisation’s rights and responsibilities under WHS legislation(especially in relation to psychological health and safety), the benefits of proactively supporting the mental health of workers as well as how Mental Health Movement can support your business through the psychosocial risk management process. The presentation can be delivered face to face or via webinar.

showcase of psychosocial risk assessment

Mental Health Movement’s Psychological Health and Safety experts will showcase our psychosocial risk assessment on 1-2 hazards selected by your organisation so that you can see first-hand how the risk assessment works.The showcase can be delivered face to face or via webinar and is a great way to learn more about our new and innovative psychosocial risk assessment before committing to the program.

psychosocial risk register

Mental Health Movement’s Psychosocial Risk Register is included in our PHRATS offering but it can also be purchased as a stand-alone product. ThePsychosocial Risk Register has drop-down menus with pre-populated lists of control measures for each hazard.

The controls are based on peer-reviewed academic and government literature and follow a modified version of the hierarchy of control to allow the selection of appropriate control measures for each hazard.

The library of controls makes selecting and determining both existing and proposed controls so much easier. The Psychosocial Risk Register is a great way to document and store the data from your psychosocial risk assessment including the existing and proposed controls, the risk ratings as well as the actionable items.

Psychosocial risk matrix and corresponding tables

To make the process of conducting a psychosocial risk assessment as simple as possible, Mental Health Movement’s Psychological Health and Safety experts have developed a number of tables that can be followed to compute the risk of the psychosocial hazard to the business. Mental Health Movement’s Psychosocial Risk Matrix and the corresponding tables are included in our PHRATS offering but they can also be purchased as a stand-alone product.

Default templates

Mental Health Movement’s Psychological Health and Safety experts have developed a number of default templates that can be used by your business as you develop your policies and procedures for managing psychosocial risks needed for your Psychosocial Risk Management Plan or ISO45003 accreditation, such as updated incident management policies and position descriptions.

Licenced psychosocial risk management software

Mental Health Movement have developed an IT platform that houses ourPsychosocial Hazard Questionnaire and the Psychosocial Risk Register. The results from the questionnaire are displayed on a dashboard which makes measuring and monitoring psychosocial hazards in the workplace easy and time efficient.

The Psychosocial Risk Register allows for the selection of controls from our library of control measures and the computation of risk is generated using an in-built algorithm based on the severity, frequency, and duration of the stress associated with the hazard and its predictability.

psychosocial internal audit checklist

Mental Health Movement’s Psychological Health and Safety experts have developed an internal audit checklist that corresponds with ISO45003. The audit provides a snapshot of how your business is performing against the standard and can then be used to develop an action plan to address shortfalls or concerns.

It can also be used to confirm and substantiate what has been achieved by your business in compliance to ISO45003 and how you are progressing on your journey in the management of psychosocial risks in the workplace. The outcome of the audit is a professionally developed audit report.

Psychosocial risk management plan
(non iso-45003 version)

Mental Health Movement also offer a simplified Psychosocial RiskManagement Plan. This version of the plan does not include the additional requirements outlined in ISO45003 for businesses who would still like a plan that clearly documents how their organisation manages psychosocial risks but are not interested in obtaining ISO45003 accreditation.

"The wonderful team at MHM have been providing Mental Health Education and Training for the past 3 years within our Australian Business. Their relatable and “real life” approach seems to really connect with many of our employees, and in my dealings with them I have really valued the personal and caring approach they have taken to meet the needs of the teams and individuals they have worked with.  Their care for supporting us to reach our aspirations to create awareness and build capability in this space is genuine and much appreciated. Every interaction has been a pleasure and a positive experience."

Stephanie O'Dwyer

Health, Wellbeing & Innovation Manager, BlueScope Wollongong

"The feedback received from staff has been overwhelmingly positive with many resonating with the personal stories and journeys shared by the Facilitators. All of our Facilitators, Brett, Alisha, Ashton, Chris and Dan, are down to earth, genuine and relatable guys with a natural ability to connect with our diverse workforce. This was evident by the amount of staff sharing personal experiences in the sessions and some staff staying back to talk about their struggles and seek further support from the Facilitators. The workplace audit will play a key role in informing our future mental health strategy, education and training at Council and we are proud to partner with MHM over the next few years as we continue to develop and strengthen our workplace to be aware, take action, break down the stigma and support a mentally fit workforce."

Sharni Watts

Manager of People & Culture, Georges River Council

"After the first session every single employee personally thanked the business owners for organising the event and said how much they appreciated it. I think it gave us a better understanding of some of our difficulties in life, that everyone has struggles which reminded us to be good to each other. I believe it brought us closer as a group and reinforced that we all support each other. I think the whole MHM crew are amazing people doing a great job for our community and the different workforces they encounter. They genuinely care, want to help and make a difference."
