Who We Work With

We work with organisations that employ people and have WHS duties, including:

• Small businesses growing their workforce

• Medium-sized businesses formalising WHS systems

• Larger organisations strengthening psychosocial risk management

Our approach is scaled, proportionate and practical, regardless of business size.

Helping organisations prevent harm and stay compliant

Why this matters

Psychological injury accounts for around 10–12% of serious workers’ compensation claims, often involving longer absences and higher costs, while WHS prosecutions continue nationally with most matters resulting in financial penalties.

What We Do

We design and deliver tailored training and consulting that aligns with your industry, workforce and operational context.

Psychosocial Hazards in Everyday Work

Psychosocial hazards are hazards that may cause psychological harm and commonly arise from:

High or sustained workloads

Unclear roles or expectations

Poorly managed organisational change

Workplace conflict, bullying or  inappropriate behaviour

Exposure to stressful or traumatic situations


Managing these hazards is part of WHS and can be done practically and proportionately.

What good WHS and Psychosocial Risk Management looks like

Effective organisations:

  • identify WHS and psychosocial hazards
  • assess risk based on likelihood and consequence
  • implement controls to eliminate or minimise risk so far as reasonably practicable
  • consult workers
  • monitor and review controls

Good practice is about reasonable steps, not paperwork volume.

Use our practical self-checklist to assess your WHS and psychosocial risk approach.

Maureen and I worked together at Eire Constructions in 2007-2008, where she led our Integrated Management Systems. I remember her as someone who brought strong systems knowledge together with a very practical, people-focused approach.

She was equally comfortable working with project teams on site as she was supporting broader business initiatives, and she built strong, credible relationships across the organisation.

- Tom Kelliher, Founder
