    to identify which employee characteristics are needed to fill a particular job.

     People work harder when they are happier.


     Help employers tackle challenges with employee productivity by offering
    solutions that improve workers' mental health.

    particular type of employee or how to help employees navigate work-family conflicts.
    Navigating Career Changes

     Provide one-on-one counseling to individuals who need help navigating career


    changes or adapting to a change in the workplace.
     For example, an industrial psychologist might help a new father struggling to return to work
    after the birth of his child. 
    Boosting Workplace Cooperation

     Employers frequently implement team-building exercises, and industrial


    psychologists can maximize the effectiveness of these activities. 
     Psychologists can advise employers on how to foster more cooperation and
    respect between workers, and help devise policies that make workplaces more
    cohesive and friendly. 
     When there is a specific challenge -- such as workplace bullying -- industrial
    psychologists may talk to all parties to determine a mutually agreeable solution.
