HR Support

Workplace Wellbeing

Psychosocial risk assessment and prevention for organisations that take their people seriously.

Workshops & audits In-person or online Customised to your context
The challenge

Wellbeing is a strategic imperative — not just a legal obligation

Beyond payroll and admin, HR teams are now expected to protect the psychological health of their people, prevent risk before it becomes crisis, and build a workplace culture that attracts and retains talent.

Stress, disengagement, poor communication and unresolved tensions quietly erode performance. By the time the symptoms are visible — absenteeism, turnover, conflict — the cost is already significant. Grace helps organisations get ahead of these risks through structured assessment, targeted prevention programmes and an emotionally intelligent approach to workplace culture.

Our wellbeing support is grounded in emotional intelligence: we help HR teams and managers develop the skills to notice what's happening beneath the surface and act before problems escalate.

What we cover

Areas of intervention

Psychosocial risk (RPS) audits

Structured assessment of the psychological risk factors present in your organisation — workload, relationships, recognition, autonomy — with a clear action plan.

Absenteeism prevention

Understanding the root causes of absence and designing interventions that improve engagement, recognition and the quality of management relationships.

Employer brand & culture

Defining values, expected behaviours and ways of working that attract talent, improve onboarding and strengthen team cohesion.

Employee listening & surveys

Structured surveys and feedback processes that surface what employees actually think — and translate the findings into concrete management actions.

Manager training in wellbeing

Equipping managers to recognise warning signs, have difficult conversations early and create team environments where people can raise concerns safely.

Internal communication & values work

Aligning culture, communication and employee experience to create a more coherent, motivating and resilient organisation.

Our approach

From diagnosis to lasting change

Grace doesn't offer off-the-shelf wellbeing packages. We begin every engagement with a diagnostic phase — understanding the specific risks, culture and context of your organisation — before designing any intervention.

1

Assess

Identify the psychosocial risks present in your organisation through structured surveys, interviews and data analysis.

2

Design

Co-create an intervention plan with your HR team — workshops, coaching, manager training or culture work, depending on your priorities.

3

Deliver & reinforce

Deliver the programme and measure impact. We build in reinforcement so that change sticks beyond the training room.

Themes covered

What we work on together

Every engagement is tailored, but psychosocial-risk and wellbeing work with Grace typically covers the following themes — combined and adapted to your organisation's reality.

Understanding psychosocial risk

The six families of psychosocial risk — workload, emotional demands, autonomy, relationships, value conflicts and job insecurity — and how they show up in day-to-day work.

Recognising early warning signs

How stress, disengagement and burnout build, and the individual and team signals that appear long before absence or turnover.

The manager's role

Why managers are the biggest single lever on team wellbeing, and the concrete behaviours that protect — or erode — psychological health.

Psychological safety

Building teams where people can speak up, admit mistakes and raise concerns early, without fear of blame.

Difficult conversations

Approaching sensitive situations — overload, tension, personal difficulty — with empathy and structure, before they escalate.

Workload & sustainable performance

Setting healthy boundaries, protecting focus and designing ways of working that perform without burning people out.

Practical cases

Learning is anchored in real workplace scenarios — analysed, discussed and rehearsed so participants leave with responses they can use immediately.

Common questions

FAQ

How is this different from a one-off training workshop?

It's built on Grace's Assess → Build → Measure system — a validated baseline, structured development, and post-programme measurement — not a single session that fades in a few weeks.

How do you measure ROI?

A validated EI baseline, a post-programme assessment, and longitudinal tracking mapped to engagement, attrition, and productivity. Figures are drawn from the Grace ROI White Paper (2025) and are consistent with third-party research from TalentSmart, Korn Ferry, and the 2025 ICF Global Coaching Study.

Is our data secure?

Yes — GDPR and Swiss Data Protection Act compliant, delivered through a confidential, secure environment.

What languages do you deliver in?

English, French, German, and four more — seven in total, across a network of roughly 40 certified coaches.

Does an RPS audit meet Swiss legal requirements?

Yes. Our psychosocial risk assessment is structured to meet the duty of care obligations Swiss employers hold under labour law, and produces documentation you can point to if a risk is ever challenged.
