Early signs may appear as changes in concentration, communication, motivation, attendance, work quality, conflict, fatigue or withdrawal from normal participation.

Workload pressure, lack of control, unclear roles, poor support, bullying, harassment, long hours, excessive digital demands and weak consultation can all contribute to psychosocial risk.
