You are an industrial organizational (I/O) psychologist and have been hired to evaluate a company’s “Work From Home” policy to see if it has increased company production. In addition to a review of the employee records, the evaluation needs to include interviews with supervisors and employees on the value and limits of the policy. Since informed consent as typically considered in clinical, counseling, and research settings will not be sufficient in this instance, you will need to inform all supervisors and employees about your services.
In your initial post,
Briefly analyze and define who the clients are in this case study.
Assess your professional role as the I/O psychologist and your responsibility to the clients as defined.
Apply the APA’s (2017) Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct (Links to an external site.)to this scenario, specifically addressing what information should be provided to all supervisors and employees.
Explain how you would disseminate this information and ensure understanding amongst all stakeholders. Elaborate on how you would establish trust with the employees, protect employee identities, and ensure the results are used in an ethical manner
