When support exists, but the picture is still unclear
Most organisations already have support in place. Counselling services, training, critical incident response, policies, surveys, and reporting all play a role. The challenge is that these efforts often sit across different teams, systems, and timeframes.
As a result, it can be difficult to:
See how psychosocial risks are building or changing over time
Connect insight to practical action
Answer leadership questions about where risk is emerging and what is making a difference
HR is often left coordinating responses, while responsibility for work design, resourcing, and leadership decisions sits elsewhere.
Psychosocial risk reflects how work is designed and experienced
Psychosocial risk rarely shows up as a single issue or incident. More often, it develops through the combined impact of workload, role clarity, leadership practices, change, and the way support is accessed over time.
These risks are shaped by systems and decisions, not just individual behaviour or resilience.
That’s why individual initiatives, while important, don’t always reduce risk on their own. Without a way to connect insight across people, teams, and systems, organisations can find themselves responding without a clear sense of priority or direction.
A practical framework for making sense of psychosocial risk
Many customers use our CARE Framework as a way to bring structure to psychosocial risk management, without adding another standalone initiative.
CARE provides a clear way to:
Understand what’s happening
Identify priorities
Respond proportionately
Learn and adjust over time
You don’t need to have all the answers to start
Most organisations don’t begin with a full program or defined solution.
They start by exploring what psychosocial risks may be emerging, what insight already exists, and where there may be gaps or duplication across current initiatives.
A discovery conversation is often used to sense-check the current approach, clarify priorities, and understand what a proportionate next step could look like.
