Psychosocial Risk: Leaders and Culture

Psychological health and safety has become a critical leadership issue, but many businesses still struggle to move from awareness to action. In this fireside chat, the CEO of the Manufacturing Safety Alliance of BC sits down with the Executive Director of New Zealand’s Business Leaders’ Health and Safety Forum to explore what effective leadership looks like when addressing psychosocial risk.

Drawing on lessons from Forum members and the influential work of Dr. Hillary Bennett, the discussion will examine how leaders shape workplace culture, build trust, support wellbeing, and create work environments where people can perform at their best while reducing harm.
