Rising temperatures, flooding and erratic seasons now sit alongside overwork, harassment, job insecurity and burnout as threats to the people who keep an organisation running. Managers who treat them as separate, minor issues see absenteeism, errors, incidents and resignations climb. Five days prepare senior and line leaders to take ownership of both risk families together.
You learn how climate hazards such as heat stress, air pollution, storms and disrupted commuting affect health and productivity, and how psychosocial hazards arise from workload, role clarity, control, support and organisational justice. Sessions apply risk assessment, the hierarchy of controls, ISO 45003 guidance and the Job Demands-Resources model, then turn to leadership behaviours, return-to-work, employee assistance, adaptation planning and emergency response. You set performance measures, build a board-level report and plan how to consult workers. Case material comes from agriculture, construction, health care, education, mining, manufacturing and public service workplaces. The programme is designed for HSE and HR managers, operations and site leaders, department heads, occupational health practitioners, union and staff representatives, and executives responsible for people strategy. Classroom, online and in-house formats lead to a CPD-accredited certificate. You finish with an integrated action plan for your own workplace.
Employers carry a growing duty to protect workers from hazards that did not feature in older safety programmes. Heat waves reduce concentration and cause illness on outdoor and indoor sites alike, extreme weather interrupts operations, and sustained pressure at work drives anxiety, fatigue and mistakes that can themselves cause accidents. The link between these two risk families is strong: a hot, uncertain and overloaded workplace is a less safe one.
The Leadership and Performance in Climate-Related and Psychosocial Workplace Risk Training Course treats the topic as a management responsibility rather than a purely technical one. Participants first identify the climate and psychosocial hazards present in their operations, then assess exposure and set priorities using structured methods. They examine controls at organisational level, including work scheduling, workload design, cooling and shelter, flexible arrangements and supervisor training, and consider how leaders shape culture through their own conduct.
Later sessions concentrate on performance: indicators, reporting, consultation with workers, and continuous improvement. Participants work on realistic workplace scenarios and draw up a plan that can be put before senior management. The emphasis is on practical decisions leaders can take within current budgets and legal duties.
