Het gaat om een lijst met Engelse vertalingen van in Nederland bekende beroepen.
De term 'organisational psychologist' vind ik te zwaar omdat opleiding voor de Nederlandse functienaam niet universitair hoeft te zijn. 'Occupational expert' klinkt te vaag. Wie heeft een idee

-> Thanks, Dave!

disagree

Willemina Hagenauw: Is dit niet eerder een ARBO-deskundige?

22 mins

-> Yes, which seems to be the same thing. Although an 'ARBO-deskundige' is usually translated as a Health and Safety Officer

neutral

writeaway: no need to just go on 'gut feelings'. it's well explained here by a an Nl university you may know ;-) : http://www.vgm.leidenuniv.nl/index.php3?c=175 /yes educated guess is better. but providing refs shows where you are coming from

37 mins

-> Yes, I saw this (and a few more) and I think the keword is 'welzijnsrisico' that in the UK at least means health and safety (and not necessarily wellbeing:-)) Maybe I should have put educated guess!

neutral

human resource professional

Explanation:
Zie ref. voor de taken van de A&O deskundige en de relatie tot b.v. een veiligheidskundige. Misschien is deze term ook nog wat te algemeen, maar in ieder geval niet verkeerd.

writeaway: here's a clear explanation in Dutch of what the job involves. http://www.vgm.leidenuniv.nl/index.php3?c=175 @Max-am well aware deskundige can just be translated several ways. many NL words have multiple EN equivalents. :-)

20 mins

agree

Max Nuijens, MSc: geschikt - in antwoord op writeaway: deskundige is niet noodzakelijk wetenschappelijk onderzoeker - er is een brede toepassing mogelijk

20 mins

disagree

Marijke Singer: This is not what is meant in Dutch (it is seen from the other side while this is seen from the management side). See http://www.masterstudies.com/?course=10167

28 mins

-> As long as we're clear that it's NOT a S&H expert - that's one of the other 3 'core disciplines' involved

55 mins confidence:

Industrial/Organizational specialist

Explanation:
of I/O specialist. A&O pscyhologie is Industrial/Organizational psychology of I/O psychologist. Als je de psycholoog wilt vermijden vanwege de verschillende opleidingstrajecten, dan kan I/O specialist volstaan. Er zijn voldoende "google hits" voor.

12 hrs confidence:

Organizational Behavior and Human Resources specialist

Language variant: US

Explanation:
Although often studied separately at graduate level (as in my case), the two fields are very closely related and the roles will be combined in the same department/person in a corporate environment. HR usually includes health and safety issues.
