Mental health is often viewed as an HR issue, but its effects reach far beyond human resources. Employee stress, burnout, workplace conflict, and mental health concerns can impact everything from productivity and retention to workplace safety. Understanding where HR and safety responsibilities overlap can help organizations proactively address risks before they escalate.

Join J. J. Keller EHS and HR Compliance Experts to explore where HR and safety responsibilities intersect, OSHA’s guidance on psychological safety, and practical strategies for creating a safer, healthier workplace. Leave with actionable strategies you can implement immediately, whether you're responsible for HR, safety, compliance, or all three.

In this webcast, we’ll look at:

Ways to identify and address workplace stress before it impacts performance or safety,
OSHA's guidance on psychological safety and employee mental health,
Practical approaches HR and Safety teams can use together,
Policies and resources that support both employee well-being and organizational risk management, and
Real-world ideas employees can use to manage workplace stress and anxiety.

HR managers and directors, safety professionals, operations leaders, compliance professionals, risk management professionals, business owners, and supervisors will benefit from understanding how mental health extends beyond HR and learning practical strategies that can be implemented immediately.

We'll give you a chance to share ideas through our webcast chat and wrap up with a live Q&A session.
