Psychological safety is now written into workplace legislation — but what does that actually mean for leaders, managers, and teams in practice?

In this episode of Get Jasched, Jess is joined by Ebony Dignan, Director of EJD Advisory, for a grounded, practical conversation about psychological safety, leadership responsibility, and workplace culture — and why compliance alone is never enough.

Ebony brings her expertise in governance, risk management, and advisory work to unpack how organisations can move beyond box-ticking exercises and into real behavioural change that supports both people and performance.

Together, we explore:

• What psychological safety legislation means in practice for leaders
• Why leadership behaviour sets the tone for workplace culture
• The role of communication, trust, and self-reflection in managing psychosocial risks
• Why one-size-fits-all wellbeing approaches often miss the mark
• How middle managers shape day-to-day safety and culture
• The importance of proactive check-ins — not “set and forget” frameworks
• How strong people practices support retention, resilience, and business performance

This episode is especially relevant for business owners, leaders, directors, and managers navigating increasing expectations around psychological safety — and wanting to do it well, not just legally.

A timely, human conversation about responsibility, trust, and building workplaces where people can perform and feel secure.
