Psychosocial Hazards Management Plan

Management plan · PLAN-20373

  • Version 4

The Psychosocial Hazards Management Plan is a comprehensive set of tools designed to help organisations proactively manage and prevent psychosocial hazards in the workplace. By implementing this plan, organisations can ensure the well-being of their employees, enhance productivity, and maintain compliance with the latest code of practice.

It sets out a psychosocial hazard policy and step-by-step procedures, with policies and procedures for bullying, domestic violence (with a workplace safety plan), drugs and alcohol, workplace fatigue, sexual and gender-based harassment, and workplace violence prevention.

A psychosocial risk assessment checklist helps you identify, assess, and control psychosocial hazards such as workload, relationships, and organisational culture, with possible solutions for each. Incident report forms and an hours of work and rest form put the plan into practice.

For businesses in Queensland, the included Sexual Harassment & Gender-Based Harassment Prevention Plan meets the new legal requirements effective March 1, 2025.
