[ Psychosocial Hazard Reporting ]

Give people a real way to report a psychosocial hazard

Psychosocial risks — bullying, excessive workload, fatigue, isolation — often go unreported because there's no clear, safe channel to raise them. Novato gives every project a reporting link that stays anonymous unless the person choosing to report wants otherwise.

Included on every Novato plan, no exceptions — safety-related features aren't paywalled.

How it works

1

A worker opens the project's reporting link

No login required — it's a token-based link specific to the project.

2

They describe the concern

With an optional category — bullying/harassment, excessive workload, fatigue, isolation, violence/aggression, or other.

3

They choose whether to identify themselves

Reports stay anonymous by default; adding a name and contact is entirely optional.

4

Only the nominated WHS contact sees identifying details

If a name was given, every other admin still sees the report with no identifying detail at all.

How this fits Australian WHS compliance

To be direct about scope: this tool helps you collect and act on concerns — it doesn't constitute legal WHS advice, and providing this reporting channel doesn't by itself fulfil any statutory psychosocial risk management obligation. It's one real, accessible input into managing psychosocial risk, not a compliance guarantee on its own.

Common questions

Is a report really anonymous?

Yes by default — a name and contact are optional additions the reporter chooses to include, not something collected automatically.

Who can see who submitted a report?

Only the nominated WHS contact, and only if the reporter chose to add identifying details. Every other admin sees the report content with nothing identifying attached.

Does having this tool mean we've met our psychosocial risk obligations?

No — it's explicitly not a substitute for your own WHS risk management process. It's a genuine reporting channel, not a compliance guarantee.

Which plans include this?

Included on every Novato plan, no exceptions, including the free trial. This is a deliberate decision: safety-related features aren't paywalled.
