Hello Praveen, That’s a nice straightforward appraisal form that seems easy to use.
My only two questions are:
(1) Your evaluation factors appear to me to mix normative and criterion referenced anchors. Your form has the following:
PART II EVALUATION FACTORS
I. Rate the sub-factors that are pertinent to that position according to the following:
1. Below Average
2. Average
3. Good
4. Very Good
5. Excellent
The term “Average” is norm referenced, as it compares performance with other employees in the group. However, the terms “ Good”, “Very Good” and “Excellent” are criterion referenced as they compare performance with an objective standard. You may get unstuck in a situation where the group average performance is good or excellent. In this situation, how would a supervisor rate an average employee? If you want your appraisal ratings to be “objective”, I suggest its best to stick with all criterion-referenced anchors on your form.
(2) I notice that you don’t have any provision on your form for employee comments. You may have a good reason for this. In many cases, allowing employees to add comments gives them some stake in the process and may improve their morale as it gives them a voice.
All in all, I think you have a great form.
