The benefits of industrial and organization psychology is it helps both to understand themselves as well as those that are employed by them. Psychology affects people in different ways and so industries and organizations want to know how their employees are doing. They want to know that the things that are happening in their employees lives will not affect their ability to work. If the psychology makeup of these individuals are affected then companies want to know how to help. Industrial organizational psychology would greatly help a business. It shows person interest in those that we employee and that is one big step in the right direction.

There seems to be a trend, where both industrial psychology and organizational psychology are used interchangeably nowadays. There is the field of industrial-organizational psychology as well, which encompasses both. Industrial psychologists have been concerned with individual factors in selection, placement, job analysis and design, safety and training while Organizational psychologists, on the other hand, have examined the role of interpersonal relations, and individual differences especially in modifying and changing organizations, examining decision making, group dynamics, leadership, organizational development and change. Industrial psychology is labeled as more empirical, experimental and precise as they test and select the best people o match the demands of job, and organizational psychology is mostly labeled as clinical, humanistic and they use more qualitative methods to obtain their data.
In a sense, yes, because industrial-organizational psychologists work with employees (the "laborers") to optimize their performance by applying psychological concepts and methods.
Depending on what degree you would like to obtain in industrial organizational pyschology, there are many websites and organizations that can help to guide you through the process.
