Labour inspectors' guide for assessing the quality of risk assessments and risk management measures with regard to prevention of psychosocial risks

The working group for emerging risks (WG EMEX) of the Senior Labour Inspectors’ Committee (SLIC) presents a guideline for labour inspectors on how to address the quality of risk assessments and risk management measures with regard to psychosocial risks during inspections.

The publication can also help employers and OSH experts who want to carry out a risk assessment on psychosocial risks at the workplace level for the first time or who want to improve their level of risk management. It gives a thorough overview on all basic defintions, management of risks and the risk assessment procedure, including hazard identification, evaluation, deciding on measures and taking action, and monitoring and reviewing. It also contains examples of typical psychosocial risks in different environments and sectors. 

The guide is available in all official EU languages.
