A small-business owner and their team reviewing work together

For small and growing Australian businesses

The expectations have changed. Meeting them shouldn't be complicated.

Psychosocial safety is now a legislative business requirement, and it applies to you, with or without an HR or WHS team. Simpatico brings confidential employee support and a practical, documented way to manage psychosocial risk together in one system.

Two jobs, one system

Supporting your people is essential. It isn't the same as managing psychosocial risk.

Employee support helps someone when they're struggling. Psychosocial safety asks more of the business: identify the workplace hazards, understand the risks, take practical action, and record what you've done. Simpatico brings both together in one system.

Support your people

Help, before things escalate.

  • Confidential help, available any time
  • There before a struggle becomes a crisis
  • Clear pathways to further support when needed

Protect your business

A documented, practical process.

  • Survey the recognised psychosocial hazard categories
  • Reporting plus a prioritised risk register
  • Guide and document management's actions

Why one system

One connected system. Less administration. More confidence.

Instead of sourcing employee support, surveys and WHS advice separately, you get one connected system: engagement, hazard identification, reporting and recommended actions working together. Affordable matters, but the real value is combined capability with far less for you to manage.

The rhythm

More than a quarterly survey. Support is there whenever a question opens something up.

Quarterly check-ins by default. Each cycle updates participation, support activity, emerging themes, risk trends and recommended next steps, with confidential support always on underneath.

04 Review

Always on beneath the cycle: confidential employee support, every day of the quarter. It's the safety net that catches what a survey can't.

Proven engagement

9,500+

support conversations across Australian deployments

94%

satisfaction in high-sensitivity, anonymous settings

~3×

more hidden distress disclosed than traditional channels

When support is genuinely private, people use it. That's what makes the risk picture real, for a 60-person business as much as a 6,000-person one.

“These are people who'd never call a helpline. With Simpatico we saw 3× the engagement of our previous EAP, without anyone changing how they work.”

Common questions

Straight answers before you commit.

Your EAP supports the people who call it. Simpatico adds the part an EAP was never built for: identifying hazards across the whole team, a documented risk process, and everyday support for the people who'd never make that call. They work alongside each other.

Support your people. Protect your business. Start simply.

Transparent pricing, standard onboarding, and no commitment beyond the 60-day pilot.
