WHS Professionals in NSW - Psychosocial Code Impact Three Years On

Three years of an enforceable psychosocial code in Queensland. What actually changed? 🤔 I sat down with Kylie L., WHS and Psychosocial Risk Consultant and Founder of Support & Safety Solutions, for the latest in our Psychosocial Practice Conversations series. Her answer was honest: She says, awareness moved a lot. The work itself, not so much. 💬 "The paperwork has moved faster than the controls." A few ideas from Kylie that stuck with me: ✅ A worker taking a shortcut isn't careless. Ask why the shortcut developed. ✅ The biggest gap isn't missing documents. It's the missing line from identifying a problem to changing the work to checking people are less exposed. ✅ Supervisors don't need psychology. They need practical skills, clear boundaries and management support. ✅ For NSW organisations: pick one real area of exposure and work it properly from start to finish. With the NSW code now in force, this is a useful read for anyone in WHS, People and Culture or operations.
