Employee Engagement and Psychosocial Hazards Survey
Why the Survey Matters
It is now a core responsibility of all employers to identify, assess, and manage risks to psychological health in the workplace. This survey is a key tool in helping to meet those obligations. The insights of your workforce will provide a clear roadmap to pinpoint potential risks, strengthen systems of work, and guide targeted actions that support both legislative compliance and genuine cultural improvement.
By taking part, your employees will value the opportunity to contribute to safer practices, better support, and a workplace where wellbeing and engagement are prioritised—not just in policy, but in everyday experience.
How will your Organisation Benefit?
Engaged employees perform better, directly impacting your bottom line.
Obtain real feedback to prioritise initiatives that boost morale and culture, reducing costly guesswork.
Showing you listen - and act on - employee feedback builds trust and fosters an open culture.
Monitor known psychosocial workplace hazards and identify your areas of key risk.
Regularly measuring engagement helps track progress over time, ensuring your culture evolves alongside business needs.
What is the Process?
We make the process as simple as possible. We provide suggested pre‑survey communications to help explain the process to your employees (if required), then manage the survey end‑to‑end. This includes distributing the online survey, collating and analysing the feedback, and delivering a clear, insightful report.
What will the Report Contain?
Your 50+ page Employee Engagement and Psychosocial Hazards Report will include an overview, commentary and graphical summaries that enable you to quickly identify areas in which your organisation is performing well, and areas which require attention. It’s not just about collecting numbers - it’s about uncovering why employees feel the way they do. It reveals patterns around belonging, motivation, safety and their workplace experience. The report also includes:
An easy-to-understand scoring system for each surveyed area, provided in both numerical and graphical form.
A detailed analysis of each area surveyed, including a breakdown by gender, working location (if relevant), department/area, employment status (full-time, part-time, casual) and tenure.
Our commentary of the overall feedback, including identifying patterns of responses or behaviours.
Recommendation and specific actions you could take in key areas.
