Industrial psychology

Industrial organizational psychology is the branch of psychology that applies psychological theories and principles to the workplace. This field focuses on improving productivity and the quality of work life. I/O psychologists deal with issues such as work morale, employee-management relations, and job stress. Some are employed to design equipment that involves interaction between humans and machines.

Although work situations vary a great deal, human beings perform three basic types of functions in the systems of which they are a part. These are: 1) information-receiving; 2) information-processing and decision-making; 3) action. To provide the effective use of human beings in systems these functions should be facilitated by the proper design of equipment and other physical facilities, and by the development of appropriate methods and procedures of work.

Industrial organizational psychology is the scientific study of the relation between man and the world of work.

There are certain areas of I/O psychology that are concentrated upon within the field:

1. Personnel (Employee) functioning – employee selection and testing, training, performance appraisal, job analysis and evaluation 2. Individual worker issues – such as motivation, satisfaction and stress. 3. Organizational issues – such as communication, conflict management. Job satisfaction, motivation, group processes and leadership 4. Environmental issues – such as the people and setting within one works and the conditions and safety of the work place; and finally other issues such as consumer psychology.

This field of psychology has a lot of relevance to our everyday lives. It affects our jobs obviously, but it also affects us as we are consumers, we experience stress, we need to learn proper communication etc. From an employer’s perspective, they can save money because they have a better understanding of their workplace and its employees. They can reduce turnover and decrease absenteeism. They can increase productive and use more effective marketing tools. As well, accident prevention can increase.

In a way, industrial psychologists attempt to diagnose and develop "remedies" for organizations. They may address restructuring issues, downsizing and cultural changes.

A facet of I/O psychology is that of Engineering psychology - which focuses on people in a man-machine environment. It is concerned with the creation of work environments that are compatible with human skills, talents and limitations.

Other related areas include: * Vocational counseling – where individuals are assisted in identifying suitable careers based on abilities and interests * Industrial relations – which focus on employee-management relations, such as collective bargaining, negotiations, dispute resolution and employee law.
