This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performance Appraisals (PA) is a tool which is associated with employee performance evaluation. Researchers tend to disagree on the effectiveness of these systems. Academics claim that PAs improve employees’ performance through commitment, motivation and output increases, whilst providing an optimal basis for a reward system and training needs. Conversely, it is argued that PAs are flawed from inception since they are subjective, biased and unfair. The study critically assesses research on PAs and their effectiveness towards company goals, whilst identifying a set of criteria to test the extent of their effectiveness. The findings reject the notion that PAs are totally flawed and ineffective. The investigation discloses that HR Practitioners experience difficulties in assessing PAs fairness. The author recommends a number of initiatives to improve appraisees’ productivity as a direct result of PAs outcome, thus ensuring their effectiveness. Although the study reaffirms the scholars’ claim that PAs effectiveness is a very debatable subject, HR Practitioners still consider PAs as vital to manage employee performance throughout the foreseeable future.

Download or read book Productivity Implications of Performance Appraisal System written by Viswanatha Subramaniam and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Higher the GDP, better the living standards and happiness of the people. The contributor to GDP is the domestic production, which is optimised by "Productivity". The contributors for productivity are the domestic manpower. Appraise the manpower, select the toppers, provide incentives and direct them to be more productive, looks as a feasible management concept. In order to test this concept that "Top performers are always the Top Productive people, and there should be a one to one relationship", this Doctoral thesis was formulated. But testing the productivity grade of 1,000 top performers in diversified types and sectors of corporate organisations concluded that it is not "directly true". The Productivity and Performance of the employees are linked and moderated through the applicable corporate sector Management Information system (MIS), was the finding and conclusion. This was recognised as a concept of universal applicability for all corporate organisations in the world. This won the first Ph.D degree in the subject of management studies from the University of Bombay, (India) to the author, with a special merit certificate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this study, 318 supervisors and staff members of a medium sized northwestern university responded to a questionnaire concerning their performance appraisal system and the effects it has on communication with their organization. Several key finding resulted. First, when staff members perceived their supervisors were providing valid, timely appraisals they felt there was more teamwork, information flow, and involvement in the organization than those employees that did not feel their appraisals were valid. Second, as supervisors believed performance appraisals were linked to important outcomes, staff members perceptions of appraisals rose. Finally, contrary to the literature, supervisors reported that when they conducted appraisals in a compliant manner performance appraisal discomfort decreased.

In this university, 39% of the staff members reported they had not received their appraisals as required"--Leaf iii.
