Psychosocial inspection readiness

If a regulator arrived tomorrow, could you show your evidence?

RiskProof scores the documents you already have — policies, risk registers, training records — against your state's psychosocial hazard requirements, and shows you exactly where you stand and what to fix first.

Mapped across Australian psychosocial risk duties, codes and guidance, with jurisdiction-specific requirements built in.

In force now

The obligations are already live

Psychosocial hazard regulations and codes of practice are in force in every Australian state and territory. This is no longer a coming change.

Being inspected

Regulators are checking

Inspectors ask a specific set of questions — and they ask for documents, not intentions. What you can produce on the day is what counts.

Board accountable

Officers carry a due diligence duty

Directors and officers must be able to show they've verified the organisation is managing psychosocial risk — and verification lives in documents, not intentions.

The reframe

Surveys measure sentiment. Inspections examine evidence.

Surveys and risk assessments are genuinely valuable — they tell you how work feels, and they can even form part of your consultation evidence. But an inspector asks a different question: what can you demonstrate? Identified hazards, mapped controls, review, records. That evidence lives in your documents — and RiskProof scores it.

What surveys tell you

  • How people experience work, at a point in time
  • A valuable signal about where to look closer
  • Useful input to consultation — one part of one question
  • But not, by itself, the record an inspector asks to see

What inspectors ask for

  • Documented hazards, controls, consultation and review
  • Evidence mapped to your jurisdiction's specific requirements
  • Proof that gaps are known, prioritised and being addressed
  • A dated, retrievable record of diligence

How it works

Three steps. No new surveys, no six-week consulting project.

STEP 1

Upload what you already have

Your existing WHS policies, risk registers, training records, consultation minutes, incident procedures. No new documents required to start.

STEP 2

RiskProof reads them against your jurisdictions

Every document is classified against the psychosocial hazard requirements of the states you operate in, plus the Commonwealth layer — including state-specific rules like Queensland's sexual harassment prevention plan.

STEP 3

Get your score — and your priorities

An Inspection Readiness Score out of 100, broken down across the four questions a regulator asks, with your gaps ranked so you know exactly what to fix first.


What the score measures

The four questions an inspector asks

Strip away the legal language and an inspection asks one question of every hazard relevant to your workplace: can you demonstrate four things?

QUESTION 1Evidence

Have you identified and assessed this hazard?

A risk register that names each hazard, characterises the exposure, and reflects your actual workplace — not a generic template.

QUESTION 2Control

Have you controlled it — and controlled it correctly?

Controls mapped to each hazard, with evidence you considered redesigning the work before falling back on training and policy.

QUESTION 3Verification

Do you know your controls are working?

Consultation with workers, review of controls, and evidence that what's written down is happening in practice.

QUESTION 4Audit trail

Can you produce the record?

Dated, retrievable documentation of all of the above — the difference between having done the work and being able to prove it.

"If a regulator came today, how well could we show we have met our duty?"

That's the question a board, CFO or audit committee must be able to answer. RiskProof turns it from an uncomfortable unknown into a number, a breakdown, and a plan.

After the score

From score to audit-ready — with the record to prove it

The score isn't the destination; it's the starting line with a map. RiskProof turns your result into a path a board can govern and a regulator can verify.

Your gaps, ranked

Every gap is identified and prioritised by exposure — the work list writes itself, worst-first.

Every number explains itself

Each rating traces to the document, the section, and a recorded rationale. No score without the why — that's evidence, not opinion.

Fix, then re-score

Remediate the priority gaps and run the assessment again. Watch the score move because the evidence moved.

Progression becomes proof

Every assessment is dated and kept — demonstrable diligence over time, ready for the board pack or the inspector.

Beyond the shield

The same evidence that satisfies an inspector is a business asset

Regulatory exposure is what brings most organisations to the table — but it isn't the only return. Psychologically healthy work is better-performing work, and the evidence you build in RiskProof pays off well beyond the inspection:

People stay and perform

The hazards regulators name — unreasonable demands, poor support, harmful behaviour — are the same forces behind turnover, absence and disengagement. Managing them is a performance decision, not just a legal one.

Claims and premiums

Psychological injury claims are among the costliest and slowest to resolve. Documented, working controls are your best lever on both frequency and severity.

Tenders, insurers, boards

The question "can you evidence how you manage psychosocial risk?" increasingly arrives from procurement panels and insurers, not just inspectors. Now you have an answer with a date on it.
