Industrial Psychology: Information Management
Industrial Psychology: Information Management
Part 1 – 800 words
You are an industrial psychologist working at Dischem in the Human Capital Division which is based at the Head Offices in Cape Town. Over the past six months, you have noticed a change in people’s behaviour. Some of the changes that you have noticed include absenteeism from work, conflict between colleagues, and a decline in employee motivation and morale. You believe that these negative and costly changes are a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic and that people within your company are highly stressed.
Instructions
Your responsibility as an industrial psychologist is to look after the health and wellbeing of the employees in your organisation. You have decided to embark on a new project to generate a deeper understanding of the changes that have taken place in your company. One of the initiatives that form part of your project is to develop a psychological measure that measures the stress levels of the employees at Dischem. You understand that one of the most important phases of developing a psychological measure is the Planning Phase.
You are required to write-up on the process and steps that you would follow in the Planning Phase of developing your psychological measure. The psychological measure will be used to measure the stress levels of employees and to inform the design of future stress-management workshops at Dischem.
