Psychosocial Hazards - is your workplace meeting its WHS obligations?

Australia’s Work Health and Safety laws now require organisations to identify, manage and monitor psychosocial hazards — the workplace factors that can cause psychological harm, stress and burnout.

Since 2023, MH Training has been helping workplaces understand these obligations and take practical action.

Our interactive Psychosocial Hazards Workshops give leaders and teams the confidence to recognise risks early, strengthen workplace culture and create psychologically safer, WHS-compliant workplaces.

Each workshop also includes a written summary report with practical insights and next steps to support real workplace change.

Testimonial

I really mean this, where do l begin?, in all the training l have ever attended in all my years with the company, nothing has come close to what l got out of your course.

For me it was raw, emotional and a game changer. I simply can’t get the course out of my head even 2 days after it concluded.

It has been an  absolute profound impact but in a positive way, let me assure you. You Pauline helped me realize the burdens l was carrying without actually realizing this before the course, i.e., the “ shit in the bucket” scenario. Branko - Manufacturing

How to support a colleague experiencing workplace bullying?

November 18, 2025
Sophie works in a large public sector team where one senior staff member frequently belittles junior colleagues during meetings. He often makes sarcastic remarks about their competence and dismisses their contributions. The behaviour is often visible to the rest of the team and never challenged by leadership. Sophie has reported feeling unsafe expressing her views and has started disengaging from team discussions. A colleague has gone on stress leave citing a “toxic work culture.” Psychosocial Hazards: Poor workplace interactions and behaviour (bullying) Poor organisational justice (lack of response to inappropriate behaviour) Inadequate support from leadership Impacts: Damage to mental wellbeing and workplace engagement Increased staff turnover and sick leave Legal and compliance risks under WHS obligations How do you offer support?
