Worker Wellbeing and Occupational Violence

How can you provide the best support to others if you’re running on empty? Designed for disability support workers in Australia, this practical course champions your right to a safe, healthy, and supportive workplace. You’ll discover how to recognise and manage psychosocial hazards—including occupational violence and aggression—in line with current Work Health and Safety (WHS) laws. Learn how to spot early signs of stress and vicarious trauma, apply proactive de-escalation and self-care strategies, and confidently speak up about safety concerns to protect both yourself and the people you support.
