Work-related psychosocial hazards have substantial effects on risks of both musculoskeletal and mental health disorders (MSDs, MHDs). Recent Australian research on workplace risk management practices in 19 work organisations found that risks from work-related psychosocial hazards were poorly managed. This study identified factors impeding better management of MSD and MHD risks within those organisations. METHOD: Interviews were conducted with staff from residential aged care and logistics/transport organisations in Australia. Transcripts were analysed using a worker-centred systems framework. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Many barriers to more effective risk management were identified. Most fundamentally, few people knew of the need to manage MSD risk arising from work-related psychosocial hazards, and OHS-related skills of key managers were often reported as inadequate, particularly concerning management of risk from psychosocial hazards. Also, funding and staffing levels were often reported as problematic, and OHS issues were seen as lower priority than accreditation and commercial requirements.
工作相关的心理社会危害对肌肉骨骼和心理健康障碍（MSD、MHD）的风险有重大影响。最近澳大利亚对 19 个工作组织的工作场所风险管理实践的研究发现，工作相关的心理社会危害风险管理不善。本研究确定了在这些组织中阻碍 MSD 和 MHD 风险更好管理的因素。方法：对澳大利亚老年护理和物流/运输组织的员工进行了访谈。使用以工人为中心的系统框架对转录本进行了分析。结果和结论：确定了许多阻碍更有效风险管理的障碍。最根本的是，很少有人知道需要管理工作相关心理社会危害引起的 MSD 风险，并且关键管理人员的职业健康与安全相关技能经常被报告为不足，特别是在管理心理社会危害风险方面。此外，资金和人员配备水平经常被认为是有问题的，职业健康与安全问题被视为比认证和商业要求低优先级的事项。
