Psychosocial risks in the workplace have the potential for causing psychological and social harm that contributes toward the mental health disability burden. How can we ensure the workplace is a safe and healthy place to work and what are the best ways to do this?

Ethos: Thriving in the Workplace is an opportunity to explore the ethics around understanding and addressing psychosocial hazards at work.

Fill out a survey on these workplace risks and discuss the relationships of psychosocial risk factors, worker engagement and health, and work related outcomes. Hear from ARC Laureate Professor Maureen Dollard, Dr Rachael Potter, and Professor Kurt Lushington, facilitated by Dr Debbie Devis, as they unpack some of the key ethical issues surrounding workplace health and safety.

What is Ethos?

Ethos is a place for you to have conversations about future-focused ethical issues relating to research, technological development and the broader social context. Each forum focuses on an object as the starting point.

What to expect?

We are likely to see 50-odd participants attend this relaxed, but interactive evening event. You can expect conversation with friends and strangers, sharing perspectives and (hopefully) some laughs too.

The launch component will include drinks and talking, followed by what is a typical night at Ethos: an activity, a break with drinks, then a short panel and group discussions.

This event is – as is all of MOD. – wheelchair accessible and while participants are standing for the launch, they are then seated for the entirety of Ethos. The Multi-Access Suite is available if you need a quiet space. These events can be Auslan interpreted if you let us know, please get in touch at least two weeks in advance. Dietary requirements are collected at time of booking and any needs can be catered for.

Complimentary drinks and nibbles will be provided.
