Office workers engaged in active discussion

Why it’s relevant?

Some roles involve pressures that go beyond everyday work stress.

Employees may be exposed to distressing material, heightened risk, or emotionally charged interactions that place significant strain on wellbeing and performance. Often this goes unacknowledged, with people soldiering on until they reach breaking point. 

While the term trauma is often used loosely, in psychological terms it refers to situations involving actual or potential threat of harm to oneself or others.

In workplace settings, trauma exposure can be:

  • Direct: engaging with people who are injured, distressed, angry, threatening, or in crisis
  • Indirect (vicarious or secondary): repeated exposure to accounts, images, or details of distressing events

Roles that may involve trauma exposure include, for example:

  • Legal professionals working with personal injury or medical negligence cases
  • Frontline administrative or reception staff
  • HR, employee relations, and wellbeing professionals
  • Health and safety roles

What you gain

  • Staff better supported to cope with emotionally demanding work
  • Leaders equipped to recognise and respond to trauma-related stress
  • Reduced risk of burnout, compassion fatigue and disengagement
  • A more resilient workforce able to sustain high-quality performance
