Frequently asked questions
Are these insights opinion or evidence-informed research?
Insights are evidence-informed and grounded in data, regulatory frameworks, and real-world operating patterns. Where we draw on aggregated patterns from Safe Minds Index™ assessments or system observations, this is noted and de-identified appropriately. We distinguish clearly between established evidence, emerging patterns, and areas where evidence is limited or uncertain.
Do you publish client data?
No. We do not publish client-identifiable data or information that could compromise organisational confidentiality. Where insights reference patterns or observations, these are aggregated and de-identified. Any data presented is either publicly available, drawn from published research, or represents system-level aggregations that cannot be traced to individual organisations.
Can these insights be cited in governance reporting?
Insights may be referenced in governance materials where appropriate, subject to your organisation's internal approval processes. Content is provided for information and context, not as legal advice or compliance instruction. We recommend that organisations review any citations with their legal and compliance advisors to ensure appropriate use and attribution.
How does this relate to the Safe Minds Index™?
Many insights draw on themes, patterns, and governance considerations that inform the Safe Minds Index™ framework or emerge from its application. However, insights are designed to be accessible to all readers, including those not currently using the Index. The insights contribute to broader understanding of psychosocial risk governance while maintaining the confidentiality and integrity of the assessment framework.
How do you handle data and evidence in these insights?
All insights draw from aggregated, de-identified data. We never disclose client-identifiable information. Our content is evidence-informed commentary, not legal advice, and we avoid absolute claims where evidence is evolving. These boundaries ensure insights remain credible, defensible, and respectful of organisational privacy.
