“A significant shift from reactive measures to proactive ones, pushing employers to create workplaces that are not just compliant but genuinely safe and respectful.”
This powerful insight, shared during Trickle’s recent webinar, cuts to the heart of what the Worker Protection Act means for organisations today. The session was a deep dive into the practical, actionable ways employers can not only meet their legal obligations but also create thriving, psychologically safe cultures where employees feel empowered to speak up and do their best work.
If you’re ready to turn these insights into action, here’s everything you need to know to start making meaningful changes in your workplace—today.
Sue Shaw, Co-founder of Journey HR, explained that psychological safety is about “balancing comfort and discomfort to create the sweet spot where the best work happens.”
