Why join us?
This Summit is designed for HR and WHS professionals to help navigate the complexity of psychosocial health and safety at work.
This is for you if you want to:
- meet your legal obligations
- find the underlying causes of psychosocial hazards
- understand where psychosocial safety sits in the organisation
- learn practical strategies to improve trust and engagement with your team
- encourage staff to proactively manage conflict
- reduce complaints, claims and the risk of litigation and reputation damage
- know how to repair the harm so the cycle doesn't repeat.
You'll hear lessons from a lawyer about what's the worst that can happen if risks and hazards are left unchecked.
You'll know how to encourage improved behaviours for leaders and staff to reduce the risk, improve the culture and support mental health and wellbeing.
We're doing things differently
Events like this bring together dedicated professionals across industries who make great connections.
This Summit will be no exception and the speakers are absolute game changers.
There's never enough time to meet your fellow colleagues and really get to know the speakers and supporters at events like this.
That's why we're doing things differently...
Join us in the Summit and you'll get exclusive access to behind the scenes content as we lead into October.
You'll get to meet the Speakers and Supporters and even get the opportunity to ask questions prior to the event!
Do you find networking uncomfortable? Do you stand awkwardly in a corner by yourself, just chat to your team mates or try to cram in as much card swapping as you can?
Instead of doing this, you'll have the opportunity to introduce yourself and see who else is coming before you get there, to have an improved networking experience!
Your host
The Psychosocial Safety Summit is hosted by Nicole Turnbull, Founder and Chief Courage Officer at Neon Shed.
I have over 20 years in communications and 15 years in the work health and safety industry, working for both NSW safety regulators, the Workers Compensation insurer and the Workers Compensation Independent Review Office.
I'm the host of the podcast Under the Rug at Work, the Dark Sides of Work Summit and the World First Lived Experience Summit for bullying and sexual harassment.
I started Neon Shed to bring light to the dark sides of work. I'm on a mission to eliminate psychosocial hazards and ignite courage in leaders and teams by giving them the tools and options to know how to have a safe workplace.
Our Annual Summits help create safe, courageous and thriving workplaces. They connect directly with HR and WHS leaders who are dedicated to improving psychosocial safety in their organisation.
I can't wait to meet you!
