It describes sources of potential psychosocial harm in the workplace considering the risk factors that are associated with potential mental health and wellbeing issues at the workplace – the way we work (e.g. workloads, isolation, work life balance, traumas, including conflict and post conflict events) social factors (like organisational culture, working relationships, bullying, harassment, vulnerable groups, displacement and conflict, etc.). Through this course, managers and supervisors will learn how to address psychosocial risks in the workplace and the examples of good practices in adopting a mental health strategy and policies, promotion of an inclusive workplace culture and elimination of stigma, and will find practical measures and existing tools available to enable conversations and support cultural change.
