Background:With rapid technological advancements and constantly evolving workplace environments, understanding human behavior in organizational settings has become increasingly important. Industrial psychology addresses this need by examining how individuals and groups interact within industrial and organizational systems.
Objective:This paper aims to explore the foundational concepts and psychological approaches in industrial settings, and to analyze the impact of psychological principles on industrial work styles over time.
Methods:The study is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on defining industrial psychology, examining its scope, identifying major psychological approaches, and exploring the link between psychology and industrial accidents. The second part includes a comparative analysis, using a case study to evaluate the psychological influence on workplace practices in the late 1990s versus in 2025.
Results:Findings suggest that psychological approaches have significantly influenced safety,productivity, and employee well being across decades. The case study illustrates notable shifts in management strategies, employee engagement, and adaptation to technological change, demonstrating the evolving role of psychology in the industry.
