A WORD OF INTRODUCTION

The International Conference on Work and Organizational Psychology is an event where practitioners, academics, students, researchers and leaders come together to share their knowledge, research findings, best practices and experiences in the field of work and organisational psychology and related topics. The mutual sharing between academics and practitioners and between juniors and seniors creates synergy between theoretical knowledge and practical experience. That provides a broader and more comprehensive insight into the field of occupational psychology and increases the usefulness of scientific knowledge for the real world of work. 

The idea of “we want to inspire and learn from each other” was at the birth of the conference. This idea has caught on, and so in 2024, the 23rd annual conference will take place on April, 24-25, 2024, this time with the subtitle “Transformations of the World of Work in the Digital Age” 

Digitalisation is having a significant impact on the world of work today. This transformation affects how we work, how organisations operate and how people perceive and react in the work environment. The subtitle “Transformations of the world of work in the age of digitalisation” thus reflects a topic that is key and relevant for professionals in the field of work and organisational psychology. 

The following sub-topics are particularly welcome for oral presentations or posters at the conference: 

  • Diagnostic and analytical procedures in work, organisational and transport psychology.  
  • Interventions and rehabilitation in work, organisational and transport psychology.  
  • Forensic and penitentiary psychology, psychology in security forces.  
  • Mental health at work, wellbeing, work-life balance, cognitive ergonomics.  
  • Leadership and working with human potential in organisations, talent management, and knowledge sharing.  
  • Group and work team dynamics. 
  • People and technology, the impact of information and communication technologies on working with people.  
  • DEI (diversity, equity, inclusion) and its management.  
  • Sustainability, social responsibility and ESG.  
  • Psychological aspects of current forms of work (staff leasing, mobile work, portfolio work, employment via online platforms, …).  

However, the Programme and Organising Committee is also accepting contributions from other areas and topics in work and organisational psychology. You can present a research study, an innovative idea, or a practical experience from the work environment. 

If you are not planning to present a paper, there are still many reasons to apply and come. You will get access to presentations on current topics and inspiration for your own projects and research. Your opinions, questions and comments can help enrich the discussions after the presentations. You can also take the opportunity to share ideas with other participants during breaks or the social evening. Many ideas and suggestions for collaboration are generated outside the formal conference programme. In short, the conference is a great place to make new contacts and build professional relationships.  

Both days will begin with a plenary session featuring invited speakers. This is always followed by breakout sessions where conference participants who have expressed interest in sharing their scientific findings and experiences with others. 

All conference participants will receive an abstract book of the papers presented. The programme will include a discussion of the possibilities of further high quality publication outputs from the conference (e.g. proceedings, monographs), to which all interested participants are invited.

We cordially invite you to participate in our Conference on Work and Organisational Psychology with the theme “Transformations of the World of Work in the Digital Age”. Join us to share experiences, insights and knowledge.  

We look forward to meeting you and to inspiring discussions during the conference!
