Employees who work within a psychologically safe working environment are open to collaboration, sharing of ideas and concepts, flexible thinking and an ability to accept and adapt easily to change.

Environments that do not foster a psychologically safe space result in a fear of speaking up, resistance to change and reduced collaboration amongst teams. 

In Australia and other places around the world, it is now a safety requirement to ensure that workplaces provide both physical and psychological safety for employees. This is a great reason to focus on incorporating the right training, focus and support that meets those requirements.

But that aside, it is best practice to provide your employees with an environment where they feel included, valued and open to sharing suggestions and ideas. Not only does this contribute to improved productivity, but also decreases presenteeism and absences and assists in attracting and retaining the right talent to boost your company's profitability.
