About the National Psychosocial Safety Network
The National Psychosocial Safety Network is at the forefront of fostering cultures of respect, support, inclusion and belonging by building a community of psychosocial safety expertise that recognises organisations commitment to keeping their people safe.
The NPSN is purposed to work with private sector corporations, public agencies, businesses, schools, universities, health systems and providers and service organisations that are committed to best practice for their people.
Our approach is to connect organisations, leaders, peak bodies and professionals to evidence-based resources, support and solutions and offer organisations membership option that reflect and celebrate their achievements.
Under the leadership of ex Safe Work Chair Martyn Campbell and Coach Pty Ltd Founder Leanne Drew-McKain, the NPSN is a port in the storm for organisations and leaders in understanding and responding to rapidly unfolding psychosocial safety and psychological safety requirements.
Our Expert Advisory Group and industry leading delivery partners deliver an unparalleled depth of national and global expertise in helping organisations measurably increase psychosocial safety.
Many organisations are demonstrating a sincere commitment to not simply complying with the Code but to meaningful safe-culture leadership. The NPSN’s internationally outstanding Expert Advisory Group and recommended field-leading delivery partners—with the support of industry partners and Safe Work Australia guidance—provide expertise to organisations to support them to cyclically identify hazards, reduce risks and foster genuine prevention and culture change.
The set of evidence-based workforce analytics tools, metrics, strategic audit tools and programmatic safe-culture-change mechanisms, working in combination, equip organisations to measurably reduce patterns of risk and harm across the workforce. For example, component program providers report reductions of bullying extent from 60 per cent to 16 percent after program implementation.
“As a body of national and international experts, the NPSN is a vital contributor to workplace safety in Australia.”
Martyn Campbell
“The sudden bull-rush of psychosocial safety providers and approaches is confounding many decision-makers. We saw the need to foster a community of organisations that are genuinely committed to not only complying with the Code but to enhancing psychosocial safety in Australian workplaces—supported by field-leading experts, world-class researchers, industry leaders, peak bodies and sound evidence.
