Duties of Industrial-Organizational Psychologist
Here is just a short list of some of the major topics that industrialorganizational psychologists might explore in their line of work.
Recruit and Select Employees.
Hiring the right people for the job is important to the success of any company, and industrial-organizational psychologists often work alongside human
resources personnel to select job candidates who are best suited to specific job
roles.
This process can start by developing a job description and hiring criteria,
creating advertising materials to publicize the position to potential candidates,
and then screening applicants for the available positions. Developing screening
tests is another task that industrial-organizational psychologists might be involved with.
Job Training and Development.
Industrial-organizational psychologists are also concerned with using psychology to help train employees. This can include assessing which types of
skills are needed to perform certain jobs as well and teaching managers techniques that can help them successfully motivate and work with employees.
An industrial-organizational psychologist might be charged with developing
a program designed to help managers improve their communication skills, develop a strong management style, and enhance their problem-solving abilities.
Maximizing Wellness and Life Quality.
Industrial-organizational psychologists also work to help maintain a mentally and physically healthy workforce. This process often begins with the de-
16
velopment of job roles themselves, and industrial-organizational psychologists
may be tasked with designing jobs that are rewarding.
Creating a healthy work environment, developing fair compensation programs, and ensuring that employees have rights are just a few topics of interest
in this area. As businesses increasingly realize that healthy employees are better-performing employees, the demand for industrial-organizational psychologist may increase.
Ergonomics.
One topic that comes to mind when people think about industrialorganizational psychology is the area known as ergonomics, or the process of
designing equipment and work procedures that are best suited to human abilities and limitations.
Professionals who specialize in this area are often charged with designing
work-related products and environments that are safe and maximize productivity. For example, an industrial-organizational psychologist might help create
a computer interface that helps people focus at work.
Organizational Development.
The hierarchy and structure of a business organization can often impact its
productivity and profitability.
Industrial-organizational psychologists will often evaluate how organizations are structured in order to discover weaknesses and bring about positive
changes that can maximize efficiency, employee satisfaction, and cost effectiveness.
Performance Management and Enhancement.
Businesses are also concerned with helping their employees perform to the
best of their potential, and industrial-organizational psychologists will often
look for ways to help people in the workplace do their jobs more effectively and
efficiently. This often involves performing assessments of existing employees
and providing feedback on how managers perform their jobs and interact with
employees.

As you can see, industrial-organizational psychology is a rich and varied
field, and professionals who work in this area perform a range of different
tasks. This can be an exciting and rewarding career area with opportunities for
growth.
Ex. 16. Match the speakers to make 3 dialogues, then learn the dialogues
by heart and tell them in pairs.
1. Mike: Do you enjoy your studying at the University?
2. Sue: What is the best way for a person to write a resume if he wants to
find a job?
3. Steve: What are the advantages of opening your own private practice?
A. John: I’d imagine it can give you financial rewards and independence
from employers. Companies you work for are your clients. They can state what
results are expected from you but they can’t direct your work.
B. Helen: No … not really … I think studying at the University is very dif-
ficult. But it will be rewarded. After graduating from the University you have
more chances to find a god job.
C. Ann: I think the simplest way is to find free templates to create a profes-
sional resume. There are many examples in the Internet of course. There are lots
of sites where you can build your own resume and print it in a few minutes.
Ex. 17. Read the text and answer the questions.
MY SPECIALITY
I’m a second year student of Omsk State Technical University. I study at
the Humanitarian faculty. It trains personal for working in different fields. I’ve
chosen organizational psychology.
The course for the industrial and organizational psychologists lasts 5 years.
The students study different subjects: philosophy, psychology, law, mathematics, foreign languages and others.

Organizational psychology is an applied discipline within psychology. The
term “organizational psychology” has some synonyms. It is also known as “occupational psychology”, “industrial and organizational psychology”, or “work
and organizational psychology”. “Industrial, work and organizational psychology” is the term used internationally.
Occupational psychology is a diverse field. So I have opportunities to work
in several different areas, for example in the business sector, in research or academic positions. My specific duties will depend largely on the type of organization where I will be employed.
The primary goal of the profession is to improve productivity, help business executives select employees that best fit their company. It is very important to realize how human behavior and psychology affect work.
But I think it is more important to study how people are affected by work.
People spend a significant part of their lives in the workplace. So work impacts
their lives greatly. I would like this impact to be in positive physical and psychological ways. That is why I want to be an organizational psychologist. The
opportunity to receive education and training is very valuable to me.
After graduating from the university I want to care for people creating
a positive working environment. I think even small details can impact their
productivity and performance. So everything, from the temperature in an office
to team-building events, is significant for crafting a workplace and keeping
your colleagues motivated. I would like employees to work better and with
pleasure. My aim is to identify the needs of the clients and help them create the
environment which will be positive, as well as cozy for people to work.
