  • The psychosocial risk system: the fundamental control that enables all controls.

    The psychosocial risk system: the fundamental control that enables all controls.
    2026/09/18
    Three sandgropers walk into a bar… and end up dismantling how Australian workplaces are (not) managing psychosocial risk, one elderflower spritz at a time.Kate and Greg are joined by Tasha Broomhall, fresh from an eight-year PhD exploring psychosocial safety. Her headline finding? Everyone’s talking about it — but very few organisations are actually doing it well, and leaders are often left to figure it out alone. Tasha’s research lands with six punchy themes, including leaders feeling “all by myself,” widespread silence around risk, and a frustratingly persistent belief that EAPs and mental health training were designed to be psychological injury prevention initiatives. Meanwhile, hazards are stacking up, systems are either missing or meaningless, and some organisations are waiting for prosecutions to stack up before acting. The trio dig into the real issue: it’s not a lack of activity — it’s a lack of genuinely human-centred systems. With a key starting point for change – consultation with the people who actually do the work!!The upside? There’s “gold in them hills” when organisations involve their people, build capability, and start small rather than chasing compliance theatre.

  • When Consultation is actually a control, and changes everything

    When Consultation is actually a control, and changes everything
    2026/07/28
    What happens when a stubborn safety issue turns into a crisis of trust, culture, and psychosocial risk? In this episode, Kate and Greg are joined by Louis Webb and Brendan Luker from Hume City Council to unpack a real-world case study that started with a manual handling safety concern, and evolved into something much bigger. When vehicle mounted cranes were taken out of service, it sparked frustration, confusion, and fear across the team. Workers felt unheard. Management felt stuck. And over time, unresolved physical safety risks began to intersect with rising psychosocial risks—low trust, poor communication, and genuine concerns for mental wellbeing. Instead of more policies, more meetings, or more top-down decisions, Louis took a different approach—bringing everyone into the room. No scripts. No fixed agenda. Just real, structured conversations grounded in curiosity, transparency, and genuine consultation. Over a series of open sessions, the team: Voiced frustrations that had been building for yearsExplored both frontline and management perspectivesChallenged assumptions and unpacked the “why” behind decisionsCo-designed safer, more practical ways of working The outcome? A complete turnaround. And a WorkSafe inspector surprised - yet delighted at what had been achieved. The crew (who had been strongly advocating to keep cranes on their trucks) ultimately made the call themselves to move away from them after fully understanding the broader risks and constraints. More importantly, trust was rebuilt through transparent and honest conversations, morale lifted, laughter and humour returned to the workplace and psychosocial risks were significantly reduced. This episode is a powerful reminder that: Consultation isn’t a checkbox—it’s a controlPsychological safety enables better safety decisionsPeople don’t resist change—they resist not being heardThe best solutions often come from the people doing the work If you’re dealing with conflict, resistance, or stuck safety issues in your organisation, this conversation shows what’s possible when you stop talking at people—and start working with them.

  • The Net Effect – Part 2: Let’s catch the biggest fish, with the best designed net

    The Net Effect – Part 2: Let’s catch the biggest fish, with the best designed net
    2026/06/26
    Kate, Greg and Rod are back at the bar for Part 2 of their conversation. And no – they aren’t really catching fish! They are identifying and controlling psychosocial hazards, by diving into the messy reality of psychosocial risk, where nothing is neat, linear, or easily solved. In this part of the conversation, they unpack five categories of psychosocial hazards - and the overlaps and intersections that Rod researched to design this approach. The question “are all hazards equal” and therefore should they all attract equal attention and resources is debated. It was no surprise to Kate that Rod’s research identifies the biggest troublemaker (when considering the dynamic between hazard and harm) is interpersonal hazards. Yes – humans can be very harmful hazards! From there, the conversation shifts from “what are the hazards?” to “what are we actually doing about them?”— and the answer isn’t more policies. It’s about designing a multi-layer approach to control systems, and moving away from a list of controls for individual hazards. This means designing controls from organisational culture through to what actually happens on the frontline This episode confronts the hard truth - organisations can tick all the legal and regulatory compliance boxes and people can still be psychologically harmed. Because managing legal risk isn’t the same as managing human impact. The big takeaway? If you want to make a dent in psychosocial risk, start where it matters most—how people treat each other, and how leaders lead—and have systems in place to assure that what’s written on paper actually shows up in the day-to-day.
