It makes sense to take the best care of your employees and their psychological needs – not just to comply with legislation, but also to inspire greater engagement, efficiency and productivity.

• The legal position, including the Hatton propositions and brief case law
• Health and Safety Executive’s Management Standards risk assessment approach

• The importance of training for all managers and employees
• The correlation between stress and musculoskeletal problems
