FUNDAMENTAL RULE OF PERFORMANCE APPRAISALS
“judge the work, not the person”
(Performance appraisals: The Latest Legal Nightmare by Alexander Hamilton Institute, 1991, p. 113)
![Page 12: PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL ITE 695. PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL “Process by which an organization measures and evaluates an individual employee’s behavior and accomplishments](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d215503460f949f73fc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Performance appraisals should be held a least once a year and twice a year would be better
![Page 13: PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL ITE 695. PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL “Process by which an organization measures and evaluates an individual employee’s behavior and accomplishments](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d215503460f949f73fc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Things that limit the frequency of performance appraisals: Complicated programs Supervisors that do not support performance
appraisals. Can the supervisor get help? How many appraisals will the supervisor
have to do? How experienced is the supervisor at giving
performance reviews?
![Page 14: PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL ITE 695. PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL “Process by which an organization measures and evaluates an individual employee’s behavior and accomplishments](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d215503460f949f73fc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Five Major Objectives of the Performance Appraisal Interview
1. Supervisor and employee should reach an agreement on the performance of the employee.
2. Strengths of employee should be identified.
3. Areas that need to be improved should be identified.
![Page 15: PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL ITE 695. PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL “Process by which an organization measures and evaluates an individual employee’s behavior and accomplishments](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d215503460f949f73fc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Five Objectives (cont)
4. A plan should be agreed upon to improve at least one area.
5. Supervisor and employee should agree on what is expected during the next appraisal period.

RATING SCALES
In this system the employee is given a numerical rating. This rating can be given on a graphic rating scale with the supervisor simply making a mark on the scale that rates the employee.
![Page 18: PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL ITE 695. PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL “Process by which an organization measures and evaluates an individual employee’s behavior and accomplishments](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d215503460f949f73fc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
PERSONAL COMPARISON OR RANKING SYSTEM In this system employees are rated in
comparison with each other. A number is given which supposedly indicates where each employee ranks in comparison to all the other employees.
![Page 19: PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL ITE 695. PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL “Process by which an organization measures and evaluates an individual employee’s behavior and accomplishments](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d215503460f949f73fc/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CRITICAL INCIDENT TECHNIQUE Employee’s performance in specific
situations are evaluated and a number of these incidents are used in the overall rating of the employee.
![Page 20: PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL ITE 695. PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL “Process by which an organization measures and evaluates an individual employee’s behavior and accomplishments](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d215503460f949f73fc/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
BEHAVIORAL CHECKLISTS AND SCALES
The supervisor uses a list of descriptive statements and marks the statement that most closely describes the employee. Statements are for specifically defined aspects of a job.
![Page 21: PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL ITE 695. PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL “Process by which an organization measures and evaluates an individual employee’s behavior and accomplishments](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d215503460f949f73fc/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
MANAGEMENT BY OBJECTIVE
The employee is appraised according to how well they have reached agreed to goals. Employee and supervisor must agree on measurable objectives and how they will be met.
![Page 22: PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL ITE 695. PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL “Process by which an organization measures and evaluates an individual employee’s behavior and accomplishments](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d215503460f949f73fc/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
360-DEGREE OR MULTIRATER-REVIEW-FEEDBACK
Employees are rated by peers, team members, subordinates, and sometimes customers along with supervisors. A study by William M. Mercer reports that more than 40% of companies will use this method by the end of 1997.
![Page 23: PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL ITE 695. PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL “Process by which an organization measures and evaluates an individual employee’s behavior and accomplishments](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d215503460f949f73fc/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
A Good Performance Appraisal System is Invaluable to Both the Employee and Employer
![Page 24: PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL ITE 695. PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL “Process by which an organization measures and evaluates an individual employee’s behavior and accomplishments](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d215503460f949f73fc/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Research
A survey in 1995 revealed that 44% of 218 companies had changed their performance appraisal system in the last two years and another 29% said they will be changing theirs.
