Frequently asked questions

Mibo’s next-gen technology helps organisations conveniently achieve psychosocial risk compliance, build best-practice psychosocial work environments, co-ordinate employee care, and leverage the benefits to improve health, safety, and performance.

Founded by Sean Fyfe, physiotherapist and exercise scientist; and Anthony Ross, psychologist….. we are a team blending expertise in technology development and data science, alongside backgrounds in organisational psychology, business leadership, high‑performance sport, and clinical healthcare.

Our Mibo Psychosocial Risk Management Assessment (PRMA) developed for rigour, balance, and accuracy…has been independently evaluated by the Griffith University RISE Research Centre and found to be a very high‑quality instrument, praised for its strong validity and reliability. It seamlessly combines hazard identification and risk assessment in one tool.

A high‑quality, validated quantitative assessment like ours helps organisations consult a large, representative group of employees; objectively measure the prevalence and impact of psychosocial risks, protective factors, and financial cost of job stress across the workforce;  and make focus groups far more targeted and efficient.

Yes, the Mibo dashboard provides organisation, location, department, and team views; automated reporting functionality; and revolutionary harm-benefit risk assessment + cumulative and interrelated factor analysis to allow you to focus just on the control measures that will most efficiently benefit the overall environment.

Designed to help you turn sophisticated understanding into timely, effective action, our Control Measure Modules include key areas such as Job Design, Psychosocial Safety Climate (PSC), Psychological Safety, and Psychosocial Leadership.

Pricing is based on your employee numbers and specific requirements.

At mibo, while we highly recommend the PRMA, as part of a rigorous approach, we are building sophisticated technology to help organisations become insight rich from the data you already have :-). So you don’t have to use our surveys to benefit greatly from Mibo.

You’re likely already managing psychosocial risk to some degree, but not meeting your psychosocial risk management requirements.At mibo, we help you and any external consultants to conveniently identify and record current psychosocial risk measures, then automatically review measure effectiveness by identifying current hazards and assessing risk which usually informs new control measures.

No. Traditional workplace well-being platforms and EAP’s focus solely on the individual, placing much of the well-being responsibility on self-motivated employee action outside of work hours. Unfortunately, this approach fails to recognise the biggest influence on staff well-being – the work environment. We recommend EAPs in their rightful place…as safety nets for struggling individuals who require support in addition to proactive, work centred prevention measures. Psychosocial risk management is a mandatory workplace health and safety issue. You are required to take 4 steps to eliminate and minimise risk as the level of work design, management, and inappropriate work behaviours: identify hazards, assess risk, control risk, and review control measure effectiveness.

At the forefront of our mind has been helping reduce administration requirement in managing psychosocial risks. Our intelligent delivery and monitoring system does the majority of the work for you, garnering and presenting key staff data, automatically assessing risk, prioritising risks based on interrelationships, delivering relevant trainings to managers and employees, reviewing risk management effectiveness, and providing personalised well-being and self care options to each person (if you include our well-being support).

Work environment assessments are usually conducted from a risk-based lens. As a result of our combined background in high performance sport and clinical health care, we approach psychosocial risk management from a holistic perspective, rather than purely risk-based lens. Our technology uniquely assesses both harm and benefit providing a comprehensive view of the psychosocial environment. This approach allows a nuanced understanding of factors contributing to both positive and negative mental health staff outcomes. Overall, we are experienced in helping this process become a cornerstone of more effective employee well-being and performance.
