Psychological Health and Safety in the Workplace

1 day

About this Workshop

Given that many of us spend about 60 percent of our time at work, organizations can significantly influence our sense of psychological safety. When people feel afraid to make mistakes, ask for help, or share opinions and concerns, it may mean the organization is not psychologically safe. The fear is that they will be judged, reacted to harshly, or even punished for speaking up.

A psychologically safe workplace is one where people feel comfortable expressing themselves and have the confidence to bring issues or ideas forward to both employers and colleagues, leading to a culture of learning, innovation, and collaboration.

This workshop explores the key characteristics of a psychologically healthy and safe workplace, and the roles both employees and employers play in creating this environment. You will explore the 13 factors of psychological safety and practice strategies to enhance, support, and maintain psychological health in your organization.
