Funding boost to tackle work-related psychological hazards for aged care workers

We are thrilled to announce that the Centre for Transformative Work Design (CTWD) has been awarded $373,762 in funding from the Safe Work Australia Research Grant Program to explore ways to manage work-related psychological hazards.
 

The two-year project will be led by Dr Daniela Andrei, Professor Sharon Parker and Dr Jane Chong, and will see collaboration with Bethanie, Western Australia’s leading aged care provider to implement and evaluate the effectiveness of a participatory work-redesign intervention in an aged care setting.

We look forward to addressing the evidence gaps in managing work-related psychosocial hazards and supporting the well-being of staff across the Bethanie Group.
