Psychosocial Risks

Psychosocial risks refer to factors in the workplace that can harm an employee’s mental health and well-being. These include high job demands, lack of support, unhealthy work relationships, and poor work-life balance. Such risks can lead to stress, anxiety, and burnout. It’s essential for employers to recognize and address these factors to create a healthier work environment, promote employee well-being, and enhance productivity. Balancing workload, fostering positive communication, and offering support are key steps in managing psychosocial risks effectively.
