Goal Setting- First step in the performance appraisal is that Manager has to set the goal of his subordinate with discussion of his subordinate. Minimum goals to be five or maximum can be any number depends on company policy. Each goal to be given number. This to be set as per company policy that hat minimum number and maximum number will be assign to one goal. Goal to be measurable and easily achievable. Goal to be set with the mutual understanding of Manager and his subordinate.

Parts of performance appraisal- Performance appraisal is divided in two parts review of KRAs/Goals and review of competencies. This depends on the company policy that how much number to be assigned to KRAs and how much number to competencies. Most of the companies 80% number to KRAs and 20% number to competencies. Few companies 75% number to KRAs and 25% number to competencies but this totally depends on company policy.

Cycle of Performance appraisal- is more than just assigning ratings. It is a continuous cycle that involves planning work in advance so that expectations and goal can be set. Few organisations review the performance appraisal on quarterly bases, few half yearly bases and few on annually bases. It differs from company to company policy. Management should keep the records of all reviews quarterly, half yearly so that at the time of final appraisal no surprises should come. All appraisal reports to be signed by both manager and subordinate to avoid any dispute at the time of final review.

Role of Human Resource Department plays an important role in designing and implementing performance appraisals. Infact HR Team acts as mediator between the Functional Head or reviewing authorities and the employees. It is the human resource team’s responsibility to assure a smooth implementation of the appraisal processes.

Types of employee’s performance evaluation
1.    Numerical rating scale- Due to its simplicity this is the one of most widely used system and seems to be highly effective. It is also popular because it allows employer to measure employee performance on the bases of such as team work, communication, skill and reliability. A numerical rating scale is beneficial because a business can customise the system to rate whatever employees’ traits and characteristics.

2.    Objective Base- This is another method of evaluation system and a clear-cut way to track the progress of the individual employee. In objective base system manager with his subordinate discuss and set the target for achievement. They both agree for the specific goal for the employee to meet coupled with deadline. If the employee meets the objective, then it speaks highly of them and vice versa. This is perhaps the most black and white of all system and is practical way to monitor the overall success of the employee.

3.    360 – Degree appraisal- Let me explain 90-degree appraisal is review by appraiser and appraiser (Immediate Bose) do not discuss with appraisee.180- degree appraisal is appraisee + appraiser (Immediate Bose)., appraiser discuss with appraisee at the time of review each and every goal.  270- degree appraisal is appraisee + appraiser (Immediate Bose) + reviewer (HOD/Functional Head) and A 360- degree appraisal feedback is taken from multiple parties his subordinate, co- worker, immediate boss and even vendors. The more information you collect, the more accurate the performance review becomes. This is time consuming comparing to first two techniques. Most employer prefer it because of unbiased data they receive.
