Introduction
What we measure, and why

The 20-construct JD-R catalogue plus the case for investing in psychosocial risk management. Share it with leadership for sign-off and with workers as the transparency document that says what's coming.

Survey
Measure what matters

Focus Groups
Understand the context

Survey data tells you what's elevated. Focus groups tell you why. Both are necessary for effective action.

Go to step 5
6
Action Planning
Turn findings into change

Apply the hierarchy of controls, draw on the embedded interventions library, assign ownership, set realistic timeframes, and communicate the plan back to workers. Review at 90 days.

Tip: the interventions library is embedded here so you can browse controls while you plan.

Evaluation
7
Track & Monitor
Close the loop, then repeat

Run a short pulse survey on the factors most connected to your outcomes, review lagging indicators, and embed psychosocial risk management as standard practice. Re-run the full survey in 1–2 years to see whether interventions shifted the risk profile.

Open track & monitor

Free, open access, no account required. Analysis runs locally - survey data is never stored. Grounded in the Job Demands-Resources research literature. Combine findings with direct worker consultation and other available data.
