What Pride Month reminds us about belonging at work:

Inclusion is often quiet work. It shows up in meetings, rosters, language, leadership behaviour, and the things we choose not to walk past.

Research shows 39% of LGBTQIA+ employees report experiencing discrimination or harassment at work. That pressure may not always be visible, but it can impact wellbeing, performance and retention over time.

This Pride Month, the question is simple:

Are your workplace systems and behaviours making it easier for people to do their best work — or harder for them to belong?

Return-to-Work, explained (Part 1 of 3)

Return-to-work sounds straightforward until you’re responsible for getting it right.

We’re often asked:

What is a Return-to-Work Coordinator and do we actually need one?

In Part 1 of this short series, we break down:
🔹What a Return-to-Work Coordinator actually does
🔹How the role supports both people who are injured and organisations
🔹Why many organisations choose to outsource rather than hire internally

If you’re responsible for safety, people, or compliance and are unclear where RTW coordination fits — this is a useful starting point.

Part 2 will cover what the role looks like in practice.

Men’s wellbeing challenges often show up before they become a crisis.

They may appear as changes in focus, communication, behaviour, engagement, relationships, or absence patterns.

The opportunity for workplaces is to recognise these early signs and respond with care, confidence and appropriate support — without overstepping or medicalising the issue.

As part of Men’s Health Week, Altius presents:

✅ Common workplace pressures men experience
✅ Early warning signs leaders often miss
✅ Practical ways to strengthen connection and support at work

Hybrid work hasn’t reduced the need for connection — it’s made it harder to achieve by accident.

When teams are split between home and office, early signs of isolation, stress or disengagement are easier to miss. And once issues escalate, support often becomes reactive rather than preventative.

Peer support offers a practical way to close that gap.

Not as a “nice to have”, but as a structured, low‑barrier system that helps people access support early before wellbeing or performance are impacted.

In this article, we explore:

✔ why hybrid work increases psychosocial risk
✔ how peer support works in practice
✔ what effective peer support looks like in modern workplaces

National Reconciliation Week 2026 | All In

This National Reconciliation Week (27 May–3 June), the theme "All In" is a reminder that reconciliation is not passive work — and not something First Nations peoples should be expected to carry alone. It requires consistent action, shared responsibility and long‑term commitment across Australian workplaces.

At Altius, we are committed to playing our part. Through our Reconciliation Australia‑endorsed Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), we are taking deliberate steps to learn, listen and build respect — recognising this is only the beginning of a long and necessary journey. Our commitment to social responsibility also extends beyond Reconciliation, with a focus on making a positive contribution to the communities where we live and work.

Being "All In" means moving beyond statements and taking responsibility for the choices, systems and behaviours we influence every day — in leadership, in workplaces and in community.

Reconciliation will not happen by itself. It happens when all of us show up.

You may have seen that the People at Work (PAW) survey is being decommissioned in 2026.

What hasn’t changed is the requirement for employers to identify, assess and manage psychosocial risks.

At Altius, psychosocial risk assessments have never depended on a single survey tool. Our psychologist‑led process brings together data, consultation and practical action planning. Our assessments will continue to incorporate a validated tool beyond the decommissioning of the PAW survey.

We continue to support organisations with compliant, validated psychosocial risk assessments as part of business as usual.

Tools may change. Employer obligations do not.

If you’re planning a psychosocial risk assessment or want to understand what comes next, we’re here to help. Talk with Altius 📱1800 258 487

Burnout is already costing organisations more than many leaders realise.

🔹Workplace burnout is estimated to cost Australian businesses $14 billion each year
🔹Mental health claims account for around 12% of all claims, with median compensation more than four times higher than physical injuries
🔹Nearly 70% of executives say they are considering leaving for a role that better supports wellbeing

These numbers point to a systems risk and not just to a wellbeing trend.

In our recent Workplace Wellbeing Spectrum webinar, we explored what this data actually means for employers and why burnout shows up first in workload, leadership pressure, and job design, long before it appears in claims or turnover reports.

If burnout is starting to surface in conversations with your executive team… and even if it’s not, this recording provides a grounded, evidence based way to connect safety, wellbeing and performance without relying on one size fits all solutions.

At its heart, EAP is simply a good EAR.

A qualified psychologist trained to listen without judgement, when you need it. Yes, they give guidance, but first they listen.

Whether it's to push performance levels, prepare for an important milestone, or manage the stress of work and/or personal life - we're here for you.

EAP....how will you use yours?

IDAHOBIT (17 May) marks the day, in 1990, homosexuality was removed from the World Health Organization’s classification of diseases.

For workplaces, it’s a useful moment to pause and reflect. Research shows many LGBTQIA+ people still carefully assess whether it feels safe to be visible at work, and small, everyday signals can meaningfully shape that experience. 🌈🤍

This carousel shares a few practical reflections for leaders and HR teams thinking about how safety, dignity, and belonging show up beyond a single awareness day.
