Abstract：
:Holistic management of the organization also covers psychosocial risk management. Gathering information about psychosocial work-related hazards is the first step of the psychosocial risk management. In this process, the identification of the occupational indicators on work-related stress must be done. The paper presents a review of the measures available to assess psychosocial work-related hazards which are available in Poland. The following measures are included: Psychosocial Working Conditions, Effort-Reward Imbalance (ERI), Subjective Assessment Work Characteristics Questionnaire, Objective Work Characteristics Questionnaire, HSE Indicator Tool, Brief Scale of Vocational Stress, questionnaire "Psychosocial Factors" and Questionnaire of Occupational Burdens in Teaching. Besides the basic information about the measures (e.g. scales, examples of items, psychometric parameters), critical assessment of each measure in relation to its usefulness is also provided. The main conclusion is that a well-specified goal of diagnosis and planned intervention is the key issue while choosing a questionnaire. The review of tools available in Poland can be of great help for occupational health and safety professionals, and support them in the work aimed at improvement of psychosocial working-conditions.
