About this training
High workloads, unclear roles and limited support can affect how people experience their work. Psychosocial hazards awareness training helps employers build a shared understanding of these work related factors. The focus is on recognising conditions that may cause harm, rather than diagnosing individuals or treating resilience as the main control.
Safety Training Finder connects employers with providers to discuss their workforce, operating context and learning priorities. You can request awareness training that considers consultation, reporting and practical changes to work design. Ask the actual provider to confirm content, facilitator credentials, delivery availability and how sensitive discussions would be managed before booking.

Frequently asked questions
Does this awareness training assess our psychosocial risks?+
Awareness training helps participants understand hazards and risk management concepts; it is not a workplace risk assessment or clinical service. Discuss any assessment needs separately, and confirm the actual provider’s credentials, proposed scope and availability before making arrangements.
Can we include examples from our workplace?+
You can request examples involving workload, role clarity or support arrangements without identifying individual workers. Agree privacy boundaries and discussion methods in advance, and confirm the actual provider’s relevant credentials, content suitability and availability before booking awareness training.
Which delivery format should we request?+
Consider workforce access, shift patterns and the sensitivity of planned discussions when requesting a format. Onsite, online or virtual availability is not assured; the actual provider must confirm suitable options, facilitator credentials and arrangements for your group.
