The world of work is changing at a rapid pace. Our lives are also changing at a rapid pace. The crisis accelerates this rate of change, arbitrarily altering the data, overturning yesterday's balances.
These are a few of the reasons why the field of Psychology that deals with the study of cognition, emotion, and behavior within the work context, namely Organizational Psychology, is called upon to actively contribute to the shaping of the new work culture. This is because the study and interpretation of psychological phenomena at work affect not only the employee but also the business, the state, and society as a whole.
The book you hold in your hands discusses the subjects of four key axes of Work Psychology:
- Personnel Psychology: refers to the application of psychological knowledge and techniques in the processes of selection, training, and evaluation of staff.
- Organizational Psychology: refers to the investigation of how different environments and management techniques influence the motivation, satisfaction, and productivity of employees.
- Health Psychology in the workplace: refers to the study of pathogenic phenomena, while proposing ways to address them in the work context for the protection of individual and collective health.
- Ergonomics: refers to how workers and machines/equipment interact, as well as the consequences of this interaction.
In this way, we aim to help anyone who wants to understand the existing, as well as the upcoming changes, to remain an active worker in the new work and economic arena.
