Beyond Compliance:
Leading the New Era of
Human-Centric Work
Summit | Workshop | Awards | 9-10 September 2026 • Tweed Heads
The landscape of Australian work has shifted forever
In 2026, managing psychosocial hazards is no longer a ‘nice-to-have’ HR initiative - it is a core pillar of operational excellence, WHS legislative requirement and board-level accountability. But as the regulations tighten, a critical question remains:
Are you merely ticking boxes, or are you building a culture that thrives?
The 2026 Psychosocial Safety Summit, Workshop and Awards is the premier three-part experience designed to bridge the gap between legislative duty and high-performance leadership. Whether you are a leader, P&C Director or a WHS professional, this is your opportunity to step away from the noise and gain the strategic clarity required to lead in a complex regulatory environment
Three Pillars of Impact
The Summit
The Strategic Vision
Join an elite lineup of visionaries including Professor Darren Morton, Mitch Wallis, Lizzie Williamson, Jeremy Brett, Jo Tarnawsky and Dr Skye Charry. This is a deep dive into the science of thriving, the ethics of work design and the future of psychological safety. Move beyond ‘managing risk’ and help your people reach their potential. Find out more.
The Workshop
The Leadership Pivot
The Workshop
The Leadership Pivot
Hear directly from the 2025 Psychosocial Safety Award Winners. The panel will share the real-world hurdles they overcame and the strategies that earned them national recognition.
This is followed by two workshops led by industry experts to help you understand the legal system, and prevent you from having to experience it.
The Awards
The Excellence Benchmark
Join us for a prestigious afternoon to celebrate the pioneers, the innovators and the organisations setting the national standard for leadership, teamwork and innovation in psychosocial safety in the workplace.
The tools of the past cannot solve the hazards of the future.
Join us in Tweed Heads this September to define what comes next for your organisation.
