Psychosocial Control Effectiveness Australia | SignalTrue

Review psychosocial control effectiveness by combining worker consultation with relevant before-and-after evidence, then checking whether the intended work change occurred, was sustained and created any new or different risks.

A control review should test the work change

Safe Work Australia describes reviewing control measures as part of the risk-management process. A practical review connects the control to the work condition it was intended to change, then checks what happened after implementation.

SignalTrue contributes one evidence source

SignalTrue compares aggregated team-level work patterns before and after a control and can help check sustainability and possible migration. It does not make a legal effectiveness decision or replace consultation.

Frequently asked questions

Does SignalTrue determine whether a psychosocial control is legally effective?

No. SignalTrue supplies work-pattern evidence that can support a control review. The organisation remains responsible for consultation, applicable legal duties, context and the final decision.

Can a control review rely only on digital workplace data?

No. Digital work-pattern evidence can complement worker consultation, observation, records and other relevant evidence; it should not replace them.

What is control migration?

It is the possibility that one visible condition improves while demand moves into another channel, time period or team. A useful review checks for that before declaring success.
