Psychological health and safety can be "No cost/low cost” - with Kevin Mooney
In this episode Ian speaks with Kevin Mooney, Vice President of Prevention and Employer Services with the Saskatchewan Workers’ Compensation Board. Kevin highlights different sources of motivation for companies to take serious action on safety. Serious incidents — fatalities, psychological injuries, and prolonged workplace absence — represent high costs for organizations and Kevin believes prevention efforts are on the right track with raising awareness and demonstrating low cost wins.
The WorkSafe Saskatchewan Psychological Health and Safety Resource Centre (https://www.worksafesask.ca/resources/psych-health-safety-resource-centre/workplace-psychological-health-and-safety/) and 7 Step Psychological Health and Safety Road map (https://www.worksafesask.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Psychological-Health-Safety-PHS-Roadmap.pdf) are accessible methods to increase awareness and soon they hope to share the results of pilot projects in local small businesses that demonstrate a simple no cost/low cost approach to identifying and taking action on workplace psychosocial hazards and regular worker feedback.
