Psychosocial risk management in company practice

The German Occupational Health and Safety Act obliges employers to design work in a way that risks to physical and mental health are avoided as far as possible. In doing so, psychosocial hazards must also be taken into account. A field research project of the German Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (BAuA) explored how this mandate is considered in company practice and the challenges and problems that companies must overcome.
