Psychological health and safety at work (ISO/DIS 45003)
Psychological health and safety at work (ISO/DIS 45003)
The standard is designed to support the implementation of ISO 45001(Occupational health and safety management systems) and aims to improve employee well-being, enhance productivity, and foster a positive workplace culture.
Why is ISO 45003:2021 important for your business?
The health and safety world has come to recognize that protecting the mental health of employees is just as important as protecting their physical health. In the past, all mental health issues were simply lumped together under the term ‘stress’, considered not something employers had any control over.
Fortunately, times have changed. We now realize the depth and complexity of workplace mental health. ISO 45003:2021 "Psychological Health and Safety at Work" is the first global standard providing guidelines for managing psychosocial risks within an occupational health and safety management system. It focuses on the identification and control of factors in the workplace that can impact employees' psychological health, such as excessive workload, poor management practices, and workplace harassment.
