Hello Debasish,
Techniques for employee appraisal depends from organization to organization. One technique which is appropriate for your organization will not be appropriate for another. Many organizations follow traditional methods like Confidential Report method, where a superior evaluate an employee on basis of loyalty, intelligence, character and his work. But this type of method is often biased resulting in dissatisfaction and misunderstandings among employees which hamper their productivity.
Some organization follows Scalar rating system or numerical or Ranking method, whereby managers are asked to rate an employee against a number of objectives or attributes. Again this method leads to biasedness among the employees.
Some organization follows 360 degree appraisal system, whereby an employee receives assessments from his/her mangers, peers, subordinates and customers while also performing a self appraisal.
And there is another nice technique which an organization follows for employee appraisal is MBO, whereby managers and other superior’s chalk out a task for an employee which he had perform. The tasks which are set are easily achievable and time bound and most importantly it should be coordinated with the goal of the organization.
Depending on his performance, the goals for the employee are set and modified.
