Guides and Leaflets
These short, practical documents turn the findings behind HESAPRO's assessment instruments into concrete workplace actions. Each guide is written for a manager or safety officer without a technical background, not for specialists.
Ergonomics on a Budget
Low-cost adjustments to workstations, tools and layout that reduce strain-related absence without capital investment — aimed at SMEs that cannot commission a full ergonomic audit.
Reading the Psychosocial Risk Indicator
A companion leaflet to the Psychosocial Risk Indicator, explaining what each score band means and three realistic first steps for teams scoring in the higher-risk range.
Incident Reporting Without Blame
Practical guidance on building a reporting culture where near-misses are logged rather than hidden, based on partner-country case studies showing reporting rates as a leading indicator of both safety and output quality.
Making the Business Case Internally
A short leaflet for safety officers who need to present findings from the Cost-of-Inaction Estimator to management in financial rather than compliance terms.
Onboarding New Staff Safely
A checklist-style guide covering the first two weeks of a new employee's induction, when incident rates are disproportionately high across all partner-country data reviewed for the project.
Manager's Quick Reference
A single-page summary linking each domain of the self-assessment instrument to the relevant guide above, for managers who want a starting point without reading the full set.
How to use these guides
Enterprises that have already run the self-assessment instruments should start with the guide matching their weakest-scoring domain. Enterprises that have not yet run an assessment may prefer to start with the Manager's Quick Reference above.
Background
All guides draw on the findings summarised in the project's Background Research report and on the piloting process described in the project overview.
