This module is deliberately not a wellness session or a welfare programme. It opens with an uncomfortable finding across 46,336 workers in 233 organisations, people who took up individual well-being offers were no better off than colleagues who did not and builds from there. Well-being is treated as a performance and governance subject, not a benefits topic.
You will work through the four domains elite sport develops as a single system, and the load-and-recovery model that explains why two people in identical roles have very different outcomes. From there, the four pillars the evidence supports movement, sleep, psychological detachment and connection, each with an effect size and a caveat. The physical foundation section gives you the dose: how much movement, what the evidence says about the plate, and an honest account of alcohol.
The second half is a governance conversation. Psychosocial risk is now a legal duty in every Australian jurisdiction, and you will map hazards in your own area against the hierarchy of controls. The module closes with measurement, eight findings each carrying a dose and an owner, and a thirty-day plan.
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
Distinguish the evidence that supports individual-level well-being interventions from the evidence that does not, and explain why that distinction matters commercially.
Diagnose their own state and their team’s conditions using the load–recovery model and leading rather than lagging indicators.
Design a personal recovery architecture built on the four evidence pillars: movement, sleep, detachment and connection.
Govern psychosocial risk by placing hazards in their area of control correctly on the hierarchy of controls, consistent with ISO 45003 and Australian WHS duties.
Commit to one measurable thirty-day behavioural change, supported by two completed action checklists.
