Northern Rivers Training and Development

Northern Rivers Training and Development helps organisations put psychosocial safety into practice by building the leader capability that makes psychosocial risk controls work day to day.

• Leader workshop: a full-day workshop for leaders, managers and supervisors covering psychological safety, early signs, supportive conversations, and responding well when someone raises a concern.
• Supportive leadership as a control: capability building that makes supportive leadership work as a control against the recognised psychosocial hazard categories.
• Mapped to obligations and standards: programs are mapped to an organisation’s obligations under the WHS Act and ISO 45003.
• Tailored programs: leader capability programs designed around the organisation’s own risk assessment, policies and hazards, for multi-site and multi-department rollouts.

Best for: organisations that want leaders, managers and supervisors equipped to carry psychosocial risk controls into everyday practice, including across several sites or departments.

Northern Rivers Training and Development delivers Mental Health First Aid courses and a mental health workshop for employees.

• Mental Health First Aid courses: Standard, Refresher and Blended courses for organisations.
• Half-day employee workshop: Mental Health at Work gives every employee the awareness, language and skills to look after their own mental health and support a colleague who is struggling, built around PAUSE, a five-step conversation model.
• Live online delivery: courses run in small cohorts and the workshop runs for groups of up to twenty.

Best for: organisations that want employees to share a common mental health language and basic support skills.
