Insight brief

The problem

Workload, fatigue, lone working, stress, and human factors can contribute to incidents, but they are often harder to capture and assign than physical hazards.

How WorkSafe can help

WorkSafe can help teams record observations, classify contributing factors, assign follow-up, and include human-centred risks in the same governance rhythm as other safety controls.
