      Information Purpose Short description of the Association and Work and Organizational Psychology Division
      Since the foundation of the Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI) in the early 1970’s, individual psychologists carved out a special role for Work and Organisational Psychology (also known as Industrial/Organisational psychology) in Ireland. By the mid 1980’s, responding to demands from members of the PSI, a Masters course in Social and Organisational Psychology was first initiated in University College Dublin (UCD) in 1986.
      Thereafter a Masters in Organisational Psychology was inaugurated in Dublin City University (DCU), and a Masters course in Human Resources was established in University College Cork (UCC). Currently, there are three Universities offering postgraduate courses in work and organisational psychology.
      By the late 1990’s, a PSI Special Interest Group in Work and Organisational Psychology was founded, leading to a new impetus for academics and practitioners to develop and consolidate this discipline. Significant growth of interest led to the establishment of the Division of Work and Organisation Psychology (DWOP) by the Council of PSI in 2001.
      The Division of Work and Organisational Psychology (DWOP) is one of eight divisions of professional psychologists in the Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI). Currently, the Division represents some 75 members including psychologists who are HR specialists, change agents, practitioners in private practice, consultants, and teacher-practitioners of work and organisational psychology amongst others. The Division has recently revised its accreditation criteria for postgraduate training in W&OP and has set up a committee to roll out Stage 2 supervised practice to graduates of postgraduate courses in W&OP commencing in 2010.
      The Division provides an extensive programme of seminars and master classes to its members and runs a biennial conference in work and organisational psychology - the first in 2007 entitled “Challenges Facing Irish Leaders in the 21st Century”, and most recently, its second conference in March 2009 entitled “Workplace Coaching: Empowering and Engaging Employees Through a Difficult Climate”. The Division also sponsors symposia and workshops and at the annual conference of the PSI. In 2008 the Division rolled out its strategic development plan and was also instrumental in facilitating a similar development within PSI itself. The Division founded a Coaching Psychology Group in 2008 (with a current membership of 54 W&OPs) in response to growing demand amongst its members. The Division also provides a quarterly newsletter to members. Division members make regular contributions to national and international conferences, and journals, and actively seek ways to promote the knowledge, skills and abilities of W&OPs to the general public.

      Information Purpose The Slovenian Psychological Association (SPA) is a voluntary professional organization of psychologists in Slovenia and is a non-governmental, not-for-profit, and non-politically affiliated association bringing together members from the fields of science, education, sport, healthcare, social care, work, marketing, defence, and environmental protection. It has approx. 200 regular members.
      According to the SPA Statute, the Association’s work entails:

      representing the profession of psychologists and the professional interests of its members;
      co-operating and assisting in the advance and development of psychological theory and practice;
      informing and connecting its members;
      ensuring the academic and professional development of its members, their further professional education and training through the organization and provision of lectures, workshops, courses, seminars, study days, consultations and congresses;
      publishing or ensuring the publication of academic literature, particularly its own academic journal in line with relevant regulations;
      coordinating and supervising the publication, maintenance, and academic application of psycho-diagnostic tools and psychological documentation in accordance with regulations;
      regulating the professional status of psychologists and promoting the legal aspects of psychologists’ work;
      joining professional associations from other countries and ensuring compliance with European or international criteria and standards;
      ensuring the public is correctly informed about the work, achievements and potential of psychology;
      ensuring respect for the principle of professional ethics among psychologists.

      The work of the SPA is carried out via a number of sections: School Psychology Section, Psychology Teaching Section, Social Care Psychology Section, Legal and Family Therapy Section, Section of work and organizational psychology, Transport and Sport Medicine, and Sports Psychology Section. The SPA collaborates also with the Slovenian Psychology Students' Association. The SPA is presented online: http://www.dps.si.
      The SPA is a member of and actively participates in the EFPA (European Federation of Psychologists’ Associations) and the ITC (International Test Committee).

      The SPA publishes the journal Psihološka obzorja / Horizons of Psychology (http://psy.ff.uni-lj.si/iGuests/Obzorja/) and is co-publisher of the journal Anthropos.
      In addition to organising and holding occasional lectures, workshops, courses, seminars and study days, the SPA also organises an annual conference, the Slovenian Psychologists’ Conference and every four years the Psychologists’ Congress of Slovenia with international participation.

      The SPA is also engaged in important work relating to redesigning the university study of psychology in Slovenia in accordance with the principles of the Bologna Declaration and the European Certificate in Psychology - EuroPsy. The SPA took the initiative on this and for some years has actively worked on this issue with numerous state institutions, the business and professional sector and public bodies, and particularly closely with the psychology departments at the University of Ljubljana and the University of Maribor.

      For some years, intense work has also been underway at the SPA towards the legal regulation of the practice of psychology in Slovenia, which has been closely related to various content-based and organisational aspects of the study of psychology at the universities of Ljubljana and Maribor and the introduction of the EuroPsy certificate. While in most European countries the practice of psychology has already been legally organised and prevents providers offering psychology services that do not meet professional standards, as set out, for example, in the EuroPsy certificate, Slovenia is sadly lagging well behind in this process. The SPA has already brought this to the attention of Slovenia’s Ministry of Health on numerous occasions, and has notified the general public through the media.

      Work and Organisational Psychology section acts within SPA and incorporates psychologists who work as HR managers, consultants, academics, trainers and coaches in the field of work and organisational psychology. The section organises regular professional meetings two times a year, where members have the opportunity for knowledge and experience exchange, to study practices in Slovenian companies and to connect with academics. In year 2010 the section received Leonardo da Vinci grant for professional education of their members. Within this project the section sent six members to creativity training in Malta.

      Information Purpose An article published in the Industrial-Organizational Psychologist (TIP) in 2006 gives some insight into the arrangement of psychologists in the UK.

      I-O or OP: What’s in a Name? Angela Carter
      This short article is an introduction to work psychology and its organization in the UK. We are known as occupational psychologists (OPs) although many in the UK will use titles such as Work Psychologist, Business Psychologist, and Organisational Psychologist to reflect a notion of being closer to organizations. Many of us feel the OP title distances us from our fellow Europeans who are known as Work and Organizational Psychologists. Dissatisfaction with the title was so strong in the year 2000, a ballot was taken of DOP members regarding changing the name to one that is the same as, or similar to, the European title. But, with a majority vote in favour of OP, that is where our identity remains. It is perhaps more sensible to promote what occupational psychologists do than argue about a name.
      The British Psychological Society (BPS)
      The BPS is an historic organization founded in 1901 and incorporated by Royal Charter in 1965 (www.bps.org.uk). There are BPS offices In England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, reflecting the devolved government structure of the UK. The Society accredits over 800 undergraduate degree courses, and over 150 postgraduate professional training courses. It confers Chartered status for professionally qualified psychologists and Fellowships on distinguished members.
      The BPS has many publications including 10 scientific journals (e.g., the Journal of Occupational and Organizational Psychology), books, position papers (e.g., Child Protection), consultation papers (e.g., Proposal for a European Qualifications Framework), best practice guidelines and information on psychological testing. It supplies a monthly journal for members (The Psychologist), a free e-research digest, and services for the news media and the public to answer questions about psychology.
      Currently the BPS has 41,961 members and is the representative body for psychology and psychologists in the UK. The Society has national responsibility of the development, promotion, and application of psychology for the public good. Members are organised into 10 Divisions (such as the DOP and the Division of Counselling Psychology) responsible for the professional interests of members. In addition, there are 13 Sections (such the Psychology of Women and Qualitative Psychology sections) available to members with a special interest in an area of psychology. People can and are members of both sections and divisions. Collectively these groups are known as Subsystems.
      The Division of Occupational Psychology (DOP)
      The second largest division of the BPS is the DOP with 3,174 members. DOP members have access to two professional networks; the BPS Branch network and the DOP.
      The Branch network covers a majority of the UK and offers meetings, both formal and informal, on a regional basis to provide professional support and knowledge dissemination. Meetings are funded centrally from the BPS. Groups of applied psychologists are encouraged to meet together to discuss topics of mutual interest regardless of their divisional affiliation. This network develops an interesting and wide ranging dialogue on a variety of topics. For example the Sheffield Hub of the North East Branch (a big region that is broken up into a number of smaller groups serving local areas) meets every two months and last week conducted a debate on “the harm managers do.” The next meeting will discuss “teams, do we need them?” These networks offer valuable support for lone practitioners many of whom organise themselves into groups to maintain and develop their professional practice. It is a statutory requirement for every chartered psychologist to submit a record of a minimum of 40 hours of such Continuous Professional Development in order to maintain their certificate of practice. In addition, Branches develop a number of seminars and local conferences, the biggest of these being the annual BPS conference held in April when the new President of the BPS is elected. The next BPS annual conference will be held in Cardiff City Hall between 30 March and 1 April, 2006 (details can be found on http://www.bps.org.uk/conferences-%26-events/event-listing/events$/2006/march/ac2006/ac2006_home.cfm).
      The DOP is the professional body defining training, development, strategy and policy for OPs. The mission statement of the DOP is:
      “…. to promote, develop and regulate the work of occupational psychologists in corporate, academic, voluntary, public and private sector settings so as to enhance the well-being and work effectiveness of organizations and individuals within society. We encourage the development of occupational psychology thorough continual, critical examination of its theoretical base.”
      Currently 61 people serve on the Division Committee which is comprised of an Executive Committee (currently Chaired by Mark Embleton, supported by Honorary Secretary Kim Stevenson, Treasurer Ann Read, Chair-elect Eugene Burke and past chair, Ros Searle) and seven Standing Sub-Committees (SSC). This author is a past chair and member of the Internal Relations SSC (IRSSC). The DOP also supports members during their post graduate development, facilitating a Training Practitioners Support Group.
      The DOP offers a number of symposia and educational events (including an extensive masterclass and workshop programme, http://www.bps.org.uk/dop/dopws05.cfm) crowned by the flagship annual conference to be held next in Glasgow between 11 and 13 January 2006 (for details see http://www.bps.org.uk/conferences-%26-events/event-listing/events$/2006/january/dop-06/dop-06_home.cfm). This is a great annual shin dig where people renew old acquaintances, make loads of new ones, learn something new about OP, and probably have far too much to drink. The DOP also holds conferences for post graduates (the POP conference), practitioners (Professional Practice Events) and for those involved in selection and assessment (the Test users’ conference). International contributions are welcomed at all of these conferences.
      There is an international symposium at every DOP conference when an afternoon is dedicated to international affairs. In January 2006 the theme is diversity, with both academic and practitioner contributions looking at assessment in the Dutch police force, diversity mindsets, and ethnic diversity and applicant behaviour. These contributions are funded by the DOP to increase international participation.
      The IRSSC aims to develop and extend international relations for OPs. Members of the committee have an active working relationship with The European Association of Work and Organizational Psychologists (EAWOP). In addition, members of IRSSC are developing relationships with SIOP, AoM and the Consulting Division of the APA. The Chair of the SSC (Helen Baron) is also a member if the International Committee of the BPS ensuring activities of the DOP disseminate to a wider audience of applied psychologists.
      Members of these international committees actively wish to assist the development of psychology internationally, in both developed countries and those with emerging economies in which psychological organisations are becoming established, such as those in Africa, Central and Eastern Europe, and Asia. The IRSSC is successfully assisting the development of occupational psychology in Greece and along with other members of the BPS recently co-facilitated a visit of psychologists from China.
      Like the BPS, the DOP is a volunteer organization and there are no payments made to committee members. Why do people do this sort of voluntary work? The work is popular because it provides a great opportunity to influence the future of occupational psychology and offers a fantastic network of connections valuable to members. Opportunity to work with psychologists in different contexts not only provides great travel experiences but contributes variety and innovation to individuals’ working practices, while extending opportunities for collaborative working.
      Challenges for Psychologists
      The challenges of organising a group of psychologists are immense and resemble herding cats! There are several debates of interest to psychologists at present. The name issue mentioned previously has been superseded by the desire for national regulation of psychologists (a role currently held by the BPS). This is turning into a long and difficult debate with the Department of Health, a body which not all members feel appropriate to regulate OPs. Currently the BPS negotiating committee is discussing various other models of regulation that would be suitable. While it is important to professionally regulate psychologists, the current BPS position of being both judge and nurturer means that supportive membership functions can be considered less important than those of governance. Currently psychologists in the UK are embracing occupational standards of competence and are discussing harmonising qualifications and standards with other European countries to allow free movement of psychologists within the European Union. Representatives from the DOP have been actively involved in these discussions and the development of the European Diploma.
      Currently the DOP is funding a large scale research project (called OP-F.I.R.S.T, see www.bps.org.uk/dop/opfirst) to assess and develop the knowledge and practice base of occupational psychology. This is an exciting project consulting a wide group of stakeholders both within and outside the profession to ensure the training and development of OPs is current and reflects the future needs and aspirations of a dynamic profession. The project will report in June 2006, and it is likely that material from this research will define the future shape and prospects of occupational psychology.
      These are a few of the current challenges facing psychologists in the UK. However, as people participating in voluntary work are aware, engaging interest in these matters to develop coherent arguments supported by a majority of members is a difficult task. The BPS Subsystems work hard to develop effective communications with their members to inform and collect opinions. In this regard, the DOP has an impressive journal called People and Organizations @ Work, http://www.bps.org.uk/dop/pow/pow_home.cfm).
      A final cause for concern among OPs is that people do not know what we do. In order to address this, the DOP has been working closely with public relations organizations to develop a strong image. A recent advancement to this end is the development of an Internet portal which will reflect OP activities and expertise in a coherent manner to consumers. This should be on line later in 2006 (www.pow-bps.com).
