Rashed, do you have any 'Performance Appraisal Process' already in place. If so, how many different types of Appraisal Forms are in use? Yours must be a mix of Executive Class (white collar employees) & Workers (Blue collar employees). What are their numbers in each category?
If you can share the above details & indicate your willingness to automate the system, we can help you in completing the performance appraisal by 30th Jun. You are welcome to contact me by e-mail at [Login to view].

Dear Bhatia
Thanks for your response, Currently we don't have any HR Systems I need to design new performance appraisal system and Forms.
Number of total Employees 1200
White Collar =200
Blue Collar=1000

My suggestions are as under:

1. For your 200 white collar employees, use the default version of EmpXtrack Performance Appraisal & refine it over the years (with your experience). The Appraisal Forms are ready; you have just to share data about the reporting channels (Employee ---> Manager (ie, Appraiser) ----> Next Senior Manager (Reviewer). The system can be made ready for trial for a sample of about 20 employees. Data about the remaining employees can be loaded later. As regards the cost estimates, information is available on the EmpXtrack website.

2. For the workers category (Blue Collar), the reporting usually is by the Floor Supervisor for a set of workers (say, 20 - 30) placed directly under his control. You can just prepare an Excel Sheet with a list of common qualities & skills (total number not exceeding 10) on which each worker is to be rated on a scale 1 to 5 (1 being the lowest). Just define what each level on the scale means & put that information also on the excel sheet. Give one sheet to each Supervisor giving names of all the subordinates & ask them to do the rating of all their subordinates on one Excel Sheet each. Let them sign & submit to their Floor Managers, who may only rank the top 10 employees amongst all the employees (say 200) rated by 8 different Supervisors reporting to one Floor Manager. You will be able to complete this task in the available time.

3. For any further details, please send an e-mail to me.
