What our stress risk assessments evaluate
Our consultants assess key organisational and psychosocial factors that influence work-related stress:
- Demands (workload, work patterns, and working environment)
- Control (how much say employees have over their work)
- Support (resources, training, and management support)
- Relationships (workplace behaviour, conflict, and bullying)
- Role clarity (understanding responsibilities and expectations)
- Change management (how organisational change is communicated and managed)

Our workplace stress risk assessments are delivered through a clear, staged process:
1. Initiation and set-up
We establish objectives, confirm confidentiality arrangements, and prepare managers for participation through virtual guidance and supporting eLearning.
2. Survey rollout
We deploy the HSE Management Standards Indicator Tool, manage communications, and support participation to ensure reliable and meaningful feedback from employees.
3. Data analysis and insight development
Survey responses are analysed to identify trends, benchmarks, and priority stress risk areas, creating a clear picture of psychosocial risks within your organisation.
4. Reporting and feedback
We provide tailored reports and deliver structured feedback sessions with key stakeholders, presenting findings, recommendations, and practical next steps.
