Psychosocial risk is now firmly embedded within Australia’s Work Health and Safety (WHS) framework, with regulators increasingly treating psychological hazards as seriously as physical safety risks. Recent legislative developments, including Victoria’s psychological health regulations and strengthened codes of practice in other jurisdictions, reflect a shift from guidance-based expectations to enforceable compliance obligations. 

Recent enforcement action and case developments demonstrate that failures in psychosocial risk management can result in prosecution, financial penalties and reputational harm, including in circumstances involving serious worker harm arising from workplace processes. 

This session will discuss: 

  • A practical overview of recent legislative developments, obligations, and emerging enforcement trends. 
  • Regulator expectations, and governance considerations for officers and boards.  
  • High-risk operational areas such as performance management, workplace investigations, and grievance handling. 
  • Practical steps organisations should take to strengthen compliance frameworks and reduce liability exposure.
