        Psychosocial Workload (PSA)

        Healthy schools require healthy workloads and resilient staff.
        Work pressure, stress, recovery, cooperation and social safety have a major impact on employees' well-being and employability. The Psychosocial Workload (PSA) Theme Survey systematically identifies the main sources and consequences of psychosocial workload. This allows schools to focus on sustainable employability and the prevention of absenteeism. This study provides insight into:
        Quantitative and qualitative workload.
        Work stress and recovery
        Cooperation and social safety
        Signals by team or target group

        PSA

        This is how the PSA works

        With this survey, we measure perceived safety, actual safety and employee well-being. It is thus in line with what schools will soon have to include in their safety policy. At the same time, it offers deeper insight into what is really going on within the organisation and where specific improvement is needed. Especially when it comes to (social) safety, employees hesitate to report issues to their managers. A carefully designed investigation makes these signals visible and discussable. Consider manners, willingness to report, perceived support and the actual experience of incidents or undesirable behaviour.

        The survey anticipates the Free and Safe Education Act (WVVO), which is expected to come into force in August 2026. Schools must demonstrate annually that they evaluate staff safety perceptions and include them in their policies. This thematic survey supports schools in making this substantiated and future-proof.

        What does the research yield?
        • Understanding how safe employees feel in their daily work.
        • Early signals on (social) insecurity, incidents and reporting culture.
        • Substantiation for evaluating and strengthening security policies.
        • Concrete input for conversation towards MR and quality assurance.
        When do schools choose this survey?
        • If they want to evaluate their structural and demonstrable.
        • If they want to align with (upcoming) legal expectations.
        • If they want to identify risks early and discuss them.
        • If they want to work purposefully to create a safe and open school culture.
