built by experts, trusted by leaders
Years of applied research, reimagined as one platform.
Inspired by years of applied research and previous work with leading organizations committed to improving psychological health and safety and employee mental health - now reimagined in one platform.
Assess Exposure
Understand how psychosocial hazards contribute to the severity, frequency, and duration of psychological distress in the workplace.
Quantify Risk
Gain insight into the cumulative impact of psychosocial hazards and compare how these effects vary across different employee groups.
ROI Calculator
Forecast the health and productivity outcomes associated with psychosocial hazards, and estimate the return on investment from effective hazard reduction.
definition
What is a psychosocial risk assessment?
iso 45003
csa z1003
A systematic process for finding the aspects of work that can harm mental health, measuring how much risk they pose, and deciding which controls will reduce them - the same discipline workplaces already use for physical hazards, applied to psychological ones.
The practice is defined by recognized standards: ISO 45003, the global guidance for managing psychosocial risk, and CSA Z1003, Canada’s National Standard for Psychological Health and Safety in the Workplace.
not an engagement survey
Engagement survey
Asks how people feel about work.
Risk assessment
Examines the conditions of work - how jobs are designed, organized, and managed.
Both have value. Only one identifies hazards you are required to manage.
a completed assessment produces four things
01
A hazard register
Every hazard identified, in one list.
02
A risk rating
Severity and reach scored for each one.
03
A prioritized plan
Controls with owners, dates, and KPIs.
04
A documented baseline
The starting point you measure change against.
method
How do we assess psychological hazards?
The same way safety professionals assess physical ones: measure the exposure, quantify the risk, and prove the controls worked.
stage 01 · evidence
From the people who experience the work
Confidential, validated assessments and short pulse checks measure how conditions affect employees - including the severity, frequency, and duration of psychological strain.
Responses aggregated to protect anonymity
Worker involvement built into the platform
A fraction of the time of traditional surveys
stage 02 · analysis
What is causing this, not just how bad it is
Results from every instrument map to a common set of psychosocial factors, so findings compare apples to apples across assessments and over time.
Driver correlation links factors to reported strain
Demographic breakdowns show where risk concentrates
Risk scoring floats the worst risks to the top
stage 03 · action
Not a report that sits on a shelf
Findings flow straight into prioritized plans, controls with owners, due dates and KPIs, and Baseline and Impact Audits that show whether anything actually changed.
Assessment is the first step of a working system.
purpose
Prevention: find and fix the causes before they become claims.
12bn
Working days lost every year to depression and anxiety
$1tn
Lost productivity - most of it tracing back to unmanaged workplace conditions (WHO, 2024)
Prevent harm at the source
Fix the conditions causing strain instead of only helping people cope with them.
Meet your duty of care
OHS duties extend to psychological health, and regulators expect documented management.
Direct resources where risk is
Spend on the hazards your data identifies, not the ones you assume.
Create a defensible record
Findings, decisions, and actions - your evidence of due diligence, ready before anyone asks.
Establish a baseline
You can only prove improvement against a measured starting point.
the factors
What are psychosocial risk factors?
The conditions of work that shape psychological health - how work is designed, organized, and managed, and the social environment it happens in.
every factor works in two directions
Drains
Managed poorly, it becomes a hazard.
Charges
Managed well, it builds trust, energy, engagement.

six steps
How to conduct a psychosocial risk assessment
Organizations following CSA Z1003 and ISO 45003 work through them in a Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle.
PsychSafe® guides all six steps inside one platform - from the first assessment to the audit that proves your program worked.

how it works
How PsychSafe® helps
Confidential surveys and pulse checks gather what employees actually experience, then surface the patterns: drains like excessive workload, poor communication, or bullying - and gains like supportive supervisors and fair scheduling.
Results are analyzed to prioritize the most serious hazards by severity and influence. From there, PsychSafe® guides you in crafting action plans and establishing practical controls using a Plan-Do-Check-Act methodology.
By finding and removing hidden stressors early, employers protect against burnout, disengagement, and turnover - and build a healthier, safer, more productive workplace.
