Dear friend
what ever the appraisal format you adopt that suits your organaizational requirement, I'd like to suggest that its implementation should be transparent. The views of the employees are to be considered in true spirit, 360 degrees feed back method is to be followed. Democracy work at is more important.Acceptability of employees is more important. That creates more involvement of employees. Otherwise it could be Frankestein, counter productive...

Dear Friend,
Format whaterver you use, But while setting the goals % should be very clear on each goal... Once the apprisal year compleets you have one by one dicussion with employee reporting boss. This discussion shoould be in th epresence of HR.
While doing the apprisal gaols should be mesauarable on pure performance base.

Dear friends
In the appraisal there should be Key Performance Indicators which are in other words goals and targets. I feel there should provision for quarterly reviews of performance and any suggestion and adverse comments are to recorded and communicated to employee.

There are 5 aspects as under to be considered while managing performance appraisal of employees:

1. Purpose of Appraisal (Promotions/ Increments/ Training & Development of employee) & the period covered (Calender year/ Financial year/ Half yearly/ Quarterly etc..)

2. Appraisal Form (Common to all employees/ different forms for Senior, Mid-level & junior employees). Whether Goal - based/ Competency - based/ Both competencies & Goal - based appraisal.

3. Work Flow (ie, Reporting Channels: Employee initiated/ Manager initiated; single level/ multiple reporting channels)

4. Data Analysis & outputs required after completion of Appraisal cycle.

5. Method of initiation, status check, timely completion and procedure for resolution of hold-ups.

Performance Appraisal is only one of the component of the total performance management system. I have spent years in this are in different types of businesses. Other important elements are Role Clarity, Performance Planning and Performance Monitoring. Also Performance appraisal should be development oriented and not just focused on increments and promotions. More in person if you are interested....

Dear friend
To my understanding a good performance procedure is determined by setting of objectives, goals and job descriptions which are backed by job specifications. Other things can be discussed by jobholder and his/her supervisor. Thanks.
