Last year psychosocial hazards were highlighted in legislative changes, in response to a national effort to recognise employee’s psychological health as just as important as physical health.
The new WHS (Psychosocial Risks) Amendment Regulations 2023 came into effect on 25 December 2023. This regulation specified the obligations PCBUs need to meet to protect their workers from psychological harm.
