Understanding Psychosocial Hazards in the Modern Workplace.

The obligations are real — whether you are across them yet or not. Psychosocial hazards are now a legal and cultural imperative, and an engagement survey or EAP isn't going to cover you. Join Optimally for a two-part practical series built for HR, P&C professionals and people in senior leadership roles who want to get ahead of this — practically, not theoretically — and close the gap between policy and reality.

$240 + GST for both sessions  ·  Recording available for 30 days

Part One
30th June 2026
12:00 pm – 1:00 pm NZT  ·  Live via Zoom
Identifying & Understanding Psychosocial Hazards
What psychosocial hazards are, why they matter under New Zealand health and safety law, and how to start identifying them in your workplace.
Part Two
22nd July 2026
12:00 pm – 1:00 pm NZT  ·  Live via Zoom
From Assessment to Action
Practical frameworks for assessing risk, engaging your people, and building a credible, sustainable response — without reinventing the wheel.

An engagement survey isn't enough — and you already know it.

WorkSafe New Zealand has made psychosocial hazards a priority area. Organisations across every sector are being asked to demonstrate they're managing psychological risk — not just physical safety. This isn't coming. It's here.

Optimally is New Zealand's leading human capital consultancy, sitting at the intersection of clinical expertise and organisational psychology. This two-part series cuts through the noise and gives you a framework you'll actually use.

🧠
Evidence-based
Grounded in clinical and organisational psychology, not surface-level wellness trends or tick-box compliance.
⚖️
Legally informed
Aligned with WorkSafe NZ guidance and the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 — so you know exactly where you stand.
🛠️
Immediately practical
Leave each session with tools and frameworks that close the gap between policy and reality in your organisation.

From awareness to action — in two sessions.

01
What psychosocial hazards are — and how they differ from general wellbeing or engagement issues
02
Your organisation's legal obligations under New Zealand health and safety legislation
03
How to conduct a credible psychosocial risk assessment — including who to involve and how
04
Common psychosocial hazards in professional workplaces and how to spot them early
05
How to engage leaders and build buy-in for psychological safety initiatives
06
Practical control measures and how to document and review your approach over time

For people who are responsible for culture, not just policy.

Whether you're new to psychosocial risk or looking to strengthen an existing approach, this series is designed for anyone responsible for people and workplace culture across New Zealand organisations.
