Health and Safety / PSR

Law 27 requires that organizations include psychosocial risks in their occupational health and safety prevention plan. Are you ready?

Psychosocial risks (PSRs) are recognized as having an impact on the quality of the working environment and the psychological health of workers. To comply with the Act to Modernize the Occupational Health and Safety System (Law 27), Québec businesses must implement a plan for managing and preventing PSRs.

This requirement provides your organization with an opportunity to stand out as an employer of choice and to have a direct impact on your employees’ work environment and psychological wellbeing.

Our team can help you take the necessary steps to manage and anticipate how PSRs might affect your work environment. A successful PSR prevention and management plan can provide the following benefits:

• enhanced work environment;
• improved leadership management skills;
• fewer mental-health-related absences;
• increased talent retention;
• greater recruitment power.

Our assessment tool can allow you to:

• Evaluate 146 factors that could explain the presence of psychosocial risks (PSRs) in the workplace;
• Include corrective measures tailored to your organization’s circumstances;
• Define a structured plan for managing and preventing PSRs.

In concrete terms, in addition to the requirement to put in place an occupational health and safety parity committee, hold regular meetings based on a defined calendar and appoint a health and safety representative, employers must also identify psychosocial risks and implement measures aimed at preventing the impacts on employee mental health.

We can guide you through designing workplace health and safety policies adapted to your reality and training your teams as well as ensuring methodical and confidential management of medical and administrative files related to the health and safety of your employees.
