It also makes good business sense

Return on investment analysis has found that business can achieve returns from investing in measures to manage psychosocial health and safety risks. The returns for investing in improving job design range from $1.56 to $0.96 for every dollar spent.  A large proportion of the returns to employers from these initiatives and programs result from potential reductions in ‘presenteeism’ and the subsequent increase in productivity from the improved mental health of the workforce.

Understanding and managing psychosocial hazards is not only a legal duty. It’s an investment in the health of workers, organisations, and the community.
