Why psychological safety matters
When employees feel psychologically safe, they are more likely to share ideas, take initiative, and raise concerns without fear of negative consequences. A supportive work environment fosters engagement, innovation, and collaboration while reducing stress and absenteeism.
When psychological safety is lacking, it can lead to:
- Limited knowledge sharing and a lack of open communication
- Low engagement and uncertainty about roles and expectations
- Increased stress and absenteeism, negatively impacting performance and well-being
- A culture where mistakes are hidden rather than used for learning
RELATE helps organizations understand where psychological safety is strong, where it needs improvement, and how to foster a more supportive and productive work environment.
How RELATE creates value
RELATE enables employees to assess whether they feel psychologically safe in their teams and organization. The tool provides insights into where they feel supported and where improvements can be made to enhance workplace well-being.
Managers gain visibility into how psychological safety is perceived within their teams and where they can take action to create a more open and trust-based work environment. RELATE helps identify whether there is a need for clearer communication, a stronger feedback culture, or other initiatives that support employee well-being.
At a strategic level, RELATE provides data on how psychological safety is experienced across teams and departments. These insights enable leadership to enhance engagement, well-being, and organizational resilience, ultimately creating a healthier and more sustainable workplace.
