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.

It is not so much a question of better or not. It is a question of what your career goals and objectives are. For example, if you have a Bachelors degree in education and plan on staying in education, it would be appropriate to secure your Masters in the same or related field. If you have a Bachelors degree in education and now plan to seek employment in corporate management, then obviously a Masters in Organizational Management might be more appropriate. I all depends on what satisfies your goals and objectives. Viper1
