When a Workplace Lacks Psychological Safety

Updated: Oct 9

match on fire unsafe workplace

Many organizations are feeling the effects of trauma without realizing it. Trauma-informed supervision involves understanding the prevalence of trauma and recognizing its potential impact on individuals' behaviors, emotions, and relationships. It emphasizes creating a workplace culture that is supportive, empathetic, and free from re-traumatization.

Here are some signs that your work environment might not be as safe or supportive as it should be:


  • High turnover and disengaged staff

  • Burnout and emotional exhaustion

  • Poor communication and frequent misunderstandings

  • Fear of making mistakes

  • Withdrawal from team activities

  • Difficulty focusing or making decisions

  • Poor boundaries

  • Frequent absenteeism

  • Distrust among colleagues

  • Fear of feedback or performance reviews


If these sound familiar, it's time to take action.


Join our Trauma-Informed Supervisor's Course starting Nov 7 to learn how to create a work culture with psychological safety at the forefront where employees feel safe, supported, and engaged.
