Workplace Culture
A healthy workplace culture makes all the difference
between dreading the day ahead and striding into it with
anticipation and enthusiasm. Communication is key to
inspiring a health and safety culture.
There are 13 workplace factors that promote a
psychologically safe place to work. These factors are known
to have a powerful impact on organizational health, the
health of individual employees, and the financial bottom
line.
Remember, it's not just about feeling good, it's about
creating an environment where people feel psychologically
safe. It's good for the individual and the organization. It
engages us and makes us feel more connected to our work
and the organization.
