LESSON 15-EMPLOYMENT PSYCHOLOGY
1. Discuss why does everyone should prepare for a life work?
Answer: We are studying to prepare for life work, because everybody needs a livelihood. We cannot depend on our parents forever. Later on, we have to support ourselves and perhaps a family of our own.
2. Explain the importance of choosing the right job.
Answer: It is important to have the right job. If you are not satisfied and happy in your job, you will not do your best and probably you were not succeeded. If you are happy in your job, work will be fun; you will be inspired to do your best and work will be easier. Your home life will also be pleasant since your satisfaction or dissatisfaction with your job has an influence on family relations.
3. What is the role of Guidance and Counselling in choosing a vocation?
Answer: Many high school graduates do not know what course to take and even college freshman are not sure if they are preparing for the right job. Therefore, guidance in choosing the right vocation is necessary. A person’s motives need to be examined critically and carefully. What is his goal in life? Does he want to serve people? Does he want to uplift mankind? Does he want to get rich? What outcomes or rewards from his work does he consider important? Administration? Praise? Wealth? Good fellowship? Success?
4. Explain the requirements of a job.
Answer: In choosing one’s life work, it is necessary to find out the requirements of the job. There are several things to consider such as; Education, what level of attainment is required; Intelligence, this is related to success in the job; Special abilities, which are need for certain callings; Physical abilities, each occupation has its demand in physique and health; Temperament, as this is related to vocational success and satisfaction.
5. Discuss the need of hiring the elderly and the handicapped
Answer: Many employers usually prefer to hire the older worker instead of the young worker, because they are better in job that make use of judgment and other mental faculties. Their experience also gives them an advantage over younger people. Hiring retired people is a service to humanity as they are happier and healthier if they continue working. In fact, retired people who continue to work even on a part- time basis, live longer. Another service to humanity is the hiring of the handicapped, because they are often overlooked as a potential employee. Place in the right jobs, they may equal or even excel the average worker. The handicapped have lower rates of accidents because they are more careful. They absent themselves less because they are afraid to be laid off.
6. Explain the conditions that contribute to effective performance
Answer: The following are the conditions that contribute to effective performance between the employer and the employee. Select the right worker for the job. Schedule rest periods or coffee breaks Allow social contacts Plan after work activities Show the importance of the job Build pride in the company Build identity with the enterprise system -Better human relations in the job will be fostered if there is a 2- way communication between the employer and the employee. Communication should not be in one direction only- from the boss to the worker- but also from the worker to the boss. There will be no misunderstandings and it is more democratic
