Psychosocial Management Plan

The plan that says who does what, by when.

A psychosocial management plan is the organisational document that turns an assessment into work: the governance around psychosocial risk, the hazard picture for your workplace, and an action register with an owner and a due quarter against every line. Where you already hold a Mind Safety risk assessment, the register is built from your hazards, ratings and controls — not from a generic list.

What the plan records

An assessment tells you what the risks are. A management plan is the document a regulator reads to see what you did about them.

Governance

Who is accountable for psychosocial risk at officer, manager and supervisor level, written in your workplace's own role names, and how a concern escalates between them.

An action register

Hazard, action, owner and due quarter on every row, with a box to tick. Imported from your risk assessment where you hold one, so the ratings and controls are the ones you already recorded.

Review and consultation

An implementation timeline across four quarters, the indicators you will watch, and when the plan comes back for review.

Your state, named in the document

You tell us where you operate. The document is written to that jurisdiction and names your regulator and the code of practice or guidance it is structured around, so whoever reads it can see which framework it was written for.

Most states and territories work from the model WHS laws; Victoria runs its own Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004 (Vic), and the document reflects that rather than pretending the frameworks are identical. Operating across borders is fine — say so in the intake and the document covers each place you work. Mind Safety documents are designed to support your obligations and are aligned with the relevant code of practice; they are not certified or endorsed by any regulator.

Ready when you are.

The Psychosocial Management Plan is one of the bonus documents in the Complete Compliance Pack, alongside the Risk Assessment, the Hazards Procedure and your policies.

Mind Safety documents are designed to support your obligations under Australian WHS law and are structured around Safe Work Australia's model Code of Practice Managing psychosocial hazards at work. They are not a certification and do not replace advice about your specific circumstances.
