An Introduction to the Psychosocial Hazard Work Re-design Tool (PHReD-T)

Associate Professor Carlo Caponecchia - Associate Professor - UNSW Sydney, Doctor Vanessa Huron - Nexus Fellow (Lecturer) - University of New South Wales

Work re-design is a key control for psychosocial risks, and is increasingly highlighted in new Regulation, Codes of Practice, and International Standards on workplace health and safety management. Despite workers and managers in all roles contributing to the design of work, skill gaps remain in how to re-design for reducing psychosocial risks. This workshop introduces the Psychosocial Hazards work Re-design tool (PHReD), which aims to increase the skills and confidence of WHS and HR personnel in relation to re-designing work.
