At Psychosocial Compliance, we specialise in conducting comprehensive psychosocial risk assessments that help organisations protect the wellbeing of their workforce while meeting their legal and regulatory obligations. Mental health and psychosocial risks are increasingly recognised as critical aspects of workplace health and safety. Our services provide clarity, structure, and actionable insights so that businesses can confidently address these challenges
Alignment with ISO 45003 and HSE Guidance
Our approach is grounded in international best practice and UK regulatory standards. Specifically, we align our assessments with the ISO 45003 framework—the world’s first global standard for managing psychosocial risks in the workplace—and with the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) management standards. This dual alignment ensures your organisation is not only meeting local regulatory expectations but also adopting a forward-looking, internationally recognised standard of care.
By using these frameworks, we help businesses create workplaces that actively prevent harm, foster psychological wellbeing, and build resilience against common psychosocial hazards such as excessive workload, poor role clarity, or inadequate organisational support.
A Structured and Practical Process
Every assessment we deliver is designed to provide clear and actionable outcomes. The process typically includes:
-
Initial consultation to understand your workplace environment, culture, and existing support systems.
-
Employee engagement through surveys, focus groups, or interviews to identify psychosocial risk factors.
-
Structured analysis using ISO 45003 and HSE frameworks to highlight areas of strength and concern.
-
Comprehensive reporting that outlines findings, risk prioritisation, and practical recommendations tailored to your organisation.
Our reports are written in clear, accessible language and designed to support both operational managers and senior leadership in making informed decisions.
Business Benefits Beyond Compliance
Investing in psychosocial risk management delivers measurable benefits:
-
Reduced sickness absence and staff turnover.
-
Improved employee engagement, performance, and morale.
-
Enhanced reputation with clients, regulators, and potential employees.
-
Evidence of meeting your duty of care obligations under UK health and safety law.
Our role is to provide you with evidence-based insights that not only help reduce risk but also contribute to building a thriving workplace culture.
Important Note on Legal Responsibility
It is important to highlight that while psychosocial risk assessments provide robust evidence of your organisation’s commitment to managing psychosocial hazards and meeting legal requirements to maintain a duty of care, they do not grant immunity from liability. Psychosocial Compliance can only confirm alignment with ISO 45003 and HSE guidance at the time of assessment. We do not accept liability in the event of subsequent legal action, nor can we guarantee outcomes where implementation of recommendations is not within our control.
