Psychosocial Hazard Surveys
Psychosocial Hazard Surveys
Understand what your people are actually experiencing - directly from them.
You can't manage what you can't see
Most psychosocial hazards go unreported - not because they don't exist, but because staff don't feel safe raising them.
Consulting with your workforce is a legal requirement under the Code of Practice, but without a structured anonymous tool to do it, you're relying on what surfaces naturally - which is rarely the full picture.
Foremind's anonymous hazard survey gives staff a safe way to tell you what's really going on, and gives you documented proof that you asked.

From guesswork to genuine insight
Without staff input, your psychosocial risk profile is only ever a partial picture - built on what gets reported, what managers observe, and what leadership assumes.
The hazards that matter most are often the ones nobody is talking about openly.
Foremind's anonymous hazard survey gives staff a safe way to tell you what's actually happening, and gives you the data to make informed decisions about where to focus.
Insights in less than 20 minutes
Staff complete Foremind's purpose-built hazard survey - covering all mandated domains required by the Code of Practice, in plain language, in under 20 minutes.
It goes out automatically to your existing employee list on whatever date you set. No additional tools, no manual distribution, no extra process.
Once complete, you receive a de-identified outcomes report with your results, key focus areas, and recommendations - ready to feed directly into your risk assessment.

Fiona Parson
Owner, Spotted Frog Kindergarten
I've noticed that the team's morale has been at an all-time high this year, and I think a lot of that has come from having a service like Foremind in place.
Georgina Byron
CEO at The Snow Foundation
Foremind’s work is inspirational. We are all interested in improving positive mindsets and wellbeing.. and workers don’t always have the opportunity to have that wellbeing check in. There’s not that culture of putting your hand up and saying you’re not okay.
Phil Cameron
Area Environmental Managing Director
Ive been able to visibly notice a change in energy and productivity in the office since engaging Foremind, the onboarding and initial training were so fantastic we decided to do it quarterly.
George Chukwukezie
HR Manager, Vacenti
“Having the ability to provide support for our staff has been really beneficial. The feedback we always hear is how easy it is to book a session. They can go in, look at who is available and book it in quickly. It's been really great.”— George, Vacenti

Check-in and survey data feeds into your analytics dashboard alongside incident reports and counselling data. If a team flags elevated workload and bookings spike the following week, you see both connected - not in separate systems. The survey is the early signal. The platform is what you do with it.
The survey surfaces the pattern. From there you can log it as a psychosocial hazard, assign a control measure, and track whether the intervention actually made a difference - all in the same platform.
The K-10 is a standardised psychological distress scale. It measures how staff are feeling at a clinical level. It can be useful for baseline measurement, but it isn't the only option - and for many workplaces, regular anonymous check-ins that track trends over time are more actionable than a clinical score alone.
Engagement surveys measure how staff feel about their job. Psychosocial hazard surveys identify specific workplace conditions - workload, bullying, lack of role clarity, poor support - that create legal risk under Australian WHS legislation. One is a culture tool. The other is a compliance obligation.
