People at Work Is Closing: What Australian Employers Do Next
People at Work is being decommissioned in 2026, with 2 October 2026 the final date for organisations to access the online platform. Rather than searching for a one-for-one replacement, Australian employers can preserve structured worker voice and strengthen the surrounding process with control records, continuous evidence and review.
People at Work is not the whole risk-management system
Worker-reported assessment remains valuable, but Australian psychosocial risk management also requires suitable controls, consultation and regular review of whether controls remain effective.
Build an evidence loop after assessment
Connect worker voice to a defined organisational control, compare relevant work conditions before and after the change, check whether improvement held and use the combined evidence to maintain, modify or replace the control.
Frequently asked questions
Is SignalTrue a replacement for People at Work?
No. SignalTrue does not replace worker-reported assessment or consultation. It adds continuous team-level work-pattern evidence that can support investigation and control review.
What should organisations preserve from People at Work?
Preserve existing reports and the principle of structured worker voice, then strengthen the process around controls, ongoing evidence and review.
