WORKSHOP A
WORKSHOP B
This training provides participants with the ability to practically apply a hypothetical scenario (based on current case law) from start to finish, including the provision of: letters, process documents (which participants will tailor for their own organisational requirements throughout the training), and a role-play under the guidance of experienced senior lawyers to test implementation throughout the training. The focus will be upon creating a 'real-life experience' for participants so that they can apply the practical realities of this challenging set of circumstances to their own workplace should the need arise in the future. 
Psychosocial risks—such as work-related stress, harassment, and poor work-life balance can significantly impact employee well-being and productivity. Through practical exercises and case studies, participants will learn how to recognize and mitigate these risks, ensure compliance with employment law regulations, and foster a supportive work environment. Attendees will leave with actionable insights and tools to promote mental health, boost morale, and reduce legal liabilities associated with psychosocial risks. This interactive workshop will provide HR professionals with essential knowledge and strategies to identify, assess, and manage psychosocial risks in the workplace.
