INTRODUCTION & RATIONALE FOR THE STUDY
Page 7
INTRODUCTION
Many organizations have realized that satisfied, skilled, hard working and especially motivated
employees are very important for the organization not only because of higher performance and
productivity. At the present time they may be a source of competitiveness as well. The question
arises how to motivate employees, make them happy to work for the organization and let them
participate on the organization's success.
A performance appraisal, as a part of human resource management, is a good tool how to manage
employees when it is set properly and both sides, the organization and employees, understand
why the performance appraisal is so important. The performance appraisal helps the organization
to observe employees' performance, behavior, skills, need for training or further education, etc. It
helps the employees as well because they know where they are, what is expected from them and
what they need to do to fulfill organization’s expectations. It motivates them especially when the
performance appraisal is related to remuneration.
The performance appraisal is the process of obtaining, analyzing and recording information
about the relative worth of an employee. The focus of the performance appraisal is
measuring and improving the actual performance of the employee and also the future
potential of the employee. Its aim is to measure what an employee does.
Performance appraisals are regular reviews of employee performance within organizations.
Generally, the aims of a performance appraisal are too:
• Give feedback on performance to employees. 

• Identify employee training needs. 

Page 8
• Document criteria used to allocate organizational rewards. 

• Form a basis for personnel decisions: salary increases, promotions, disciplinary
actions, etc. 

• Provide the opportunity for organizational diagnosis and development. 

• Facilitate communication between employee and administration
It is a powerful tool to calibrate, refine and reward the performance of the employee.
It helps to analyze his achievements and evaluate his contribution towards the
achievements of the overall organizational goals. By focusing the attention on
performance, performance appraisal goes to the heart of personnel management and
reflects the management's interest in the progress of the employees.
Page 9
RATIONALE
People differ in their abilities and their aptitudes. There is always some difference between
the quality and quantity of the same work on the same job being done by two different
people. Therefore, performance management and performance appraisal is necessary to
understand each employee's abilities, competencies and relative merit and worth to the
organization.
Performance appraisal rates the employees in terms of their performance. Performance
appraisal takes into account the past performance of the employees and focuses on the
improvement of the future performance of the employees.
The study on Performance Appraisal of employees was carried out at” Hotel Samrat New
Delhi”. The main aim of the study was to study the existing Performance Appraisal practice
in Hotel Industry
The primary data required for the study were collected through structured questionnaire.
The second data was from the company manuals and the website of the company, Online
Research papers and projects,The data were analyzed and the findings were arrived at the
basis of which suggestions are made.

Introduction to the hotel industry
“Hotel” or Inn is defined by British Law as a place where a bonafide traveler can receive food
and shelter, provided he is in a position to pay for it and is in a fit condition to be received”.
The Hotel Industry is one important sector of the touristic infrastructure of the country. The
composite tourism industry including hotel is a part of expanding International Trade in goods
and services within which it represents the fastest growing and largest elements of what
economist call invisible trade and its earnings. Today, tourism including hotels is the 2nd largest
industry in the world with a rapid growth.
The Hotel Industry has changed and developed considerably. The principle factor that determines
the guest attitude towards be hotel is service received.
Life is Service- is the motto of successful Hotel Men.
In Hotel industry the employees are usually taught to
- Push Sales - Maintain high standards
- Cut Cost - Work well as team member
- Have service awareness - Be a representative of his culture/country
Undoubtedly, just as an unsatisfied customer is a definite loss in potential revenue, a satisfied
customer is definitely a source of excellent publicity for the hotel.
Importance of HRM in hotel industry
HRM in Hotel Industry is an integral part of it, since it can make or end the enterprise. Much
depends on the right personnel with aptitude and interaction for the Hotel Industry. After the
right selection of personnel, proper training is most essential as there is no end to man’s ambition
for position, power and wealth.
Page 11
Hence it is necessary the responsibilities and obligations of an employee should be appraised
initially and salary should be fixed accordingly so that an employee does not feel that he is up a
blindly with no further prospects of battering his position. An employee should be made to feel
that good & honest work yields good result that will invariably be appreciated and recognized.
Further, it came to light that these practices could be used to evolve a sound framework for
research if they were enhanced in the light of views of people associated with the industry in
different capacity. So, it the first stop in the direction could be to get their opinion records in put
down their comments in remarks on this subject.

THEORTICAL PERSPECTIVE / CONCEPTUAL
FRAMEWORK
Page 23
HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
Human resource management has developed during past twenty years and has gained a lot of
attention. The interest in human resource management has been caused by development of
technology, greater competition and greater importance of productivity.
According to Tyson and York inception of people management begun in 18th century at the time
of the Industrial Revolution. Personnel management, the most commonly used term for
managing people, has been replaced by human resource management during the recent twenty
years. Some authors argue that this change has been simple fashionable renaming of personnel
management while others contradict it and indicate human resource management as completely
new approach.
Human resource management is a broad concept with range of definitions. Bratton and Gold
define human resource management as "a strategic approach to managing employment relations
which emphasizes that leveraging people's capabilities is critical to achieving sustainable
competitive advantage, this being achieved through a distinctive set of integrated employment
policies, programs and practices."
The key human resource activities very often vary in terms of name but the characteristics are
similar. These activities are strategic and international human resource management, recruitment
and selection, performance management, training and development, reward management, union-
management relations and employee relations, and employees' health and safety.
At the current situation of worldwide globalization (e.g. enlargement of the European Union)
human resource functions must deal with demographic changes (e.g. employees diversity,
cultural differences) more than ever before. Improvement in total quality management and
business process redesign are important for increasing focus on managing people as the probable
source of competitive advantage.
Page 24
1.1 Performance Management
Performance management is one of the functions of human resource management. In recent
years, it has obtained a lot of attention as a key feature in achieving competitive advantage and
high performance. Performance management is concerned in managing the organization and its
employees to get better results from them. It helps employees to understand the organization's
goals and requirements and how they can partake in achieving objectives and higher
performance of the organization. Performance management is often seen as synonymous with
performance appraisal but the performance appraisal is only part of the performance
management process.
1.2 Performance Appraisal
Performance appraisal is defined as the process of assessing the performance and progress
of an employee or a group of employees on a given job and his / their potential for the
future development. It consists of all procedure used in working organization and potential
of employees.
Performance appraisal means systematic evaluation of the personality and performance of
each employees by his superior or some other persons trained in the technique of merit
rating. It employs various ratings technique for comparing individual employees in a work
group, in terms of personnel qualities or deficiencies and the requirements of their
respective jobs.
CHARACTERISTICS
✓ Performance appraisal is a process.

✓ It is the systematic examination of the strength and weakness of employees
during the term of his job.

✓ It is a scientific and objective study. Formal procedure is used in the study.
✓ It is an ongoing and continuous process wherein the evaluations are arranged periodically
according to a definite plan.
Page 25
✓The main purpose of performance appraisal is to ensure information necessary for making
objectives and correct decision an employee.
Objectives of Appraisal
✓The main objective of the appraisal is to evaluate employee's performance fairly. It
creates
✓assumptions for employee's utilization within the company and for his/her e.g.
motivation,
✓performance or career. Only some of the main objectives are introduced as follow [2]:
✓• To appraise to what extent the employee fulfils his duties
✓• To qualify level of the employee's performance
✓• To appraise if the employee does his/her best at work
✓• To formulate development of the employee
✓• To recommend the employee's transfer to more/less exacting work place
Other objectives of the appraisal may differ according to the situation within the company
or according to the purpose of appraisal (e.g. periodicity, changes in the company). Among
these partial objectives belong
• To improve the employee's performance
• To gain information about the employee's opinions, values
• To identify suitable candidates to be promoted
• To identify educational needs
Page 26
• To check foreknowledge of the employee
• To identify how to improve relationship between management of the company and
the other employees
• To discuss work issues with the employee
• To identify work and social needs of the employee
• To check motivation impact of the appraisal and remuneration
• To find out level of the employee's satisfaction
In practice only some of these objectives are met by the appraisal. It depends on the
purpose of the appraisal. The whole appraisal is more about the performance in a case of
the appraisal focused on remuneration. The appraisal, focused on character of the
employee or his/her behavior, is oriented on management of development and employee's
motivation.
The appraisal system, which is realized effectively, provides the company with very
important feedback about management of the company and the employee's perception of it.
Managers are supposed to do the appraisal to find out what provisions are necessary to
adopt. They are also supposed to support employee's success or on the other hand to
discipline failings and to motivate.
Also employees expect benefits from the appraisal. The employee gets feedback about
his/her performance which may motivate him/her to do better job. They get an opportunity
Page 27
to find out whether their requirements harmonies with the company's vision or they can
discuss his/her remuneration.
PROCESS
The process of performance appraisal:
✓Establishing performance standards
✓Communicating the standards
✓ Measuring performance
✓Comparing the actual with the standards
✓ Discussing the appraisal
✓Talking corrective action
What to Appraise?
To conduct the appraisal well an appraiser must know which criteria are crucial for the
certain employee's position and which are adequate to the form and purpose of the appraisal
too. Different criteria may apply to different positions within the company. They can be
general (they apply to the all positions) or special (adjusted to the particular position). These
criteria should be clear, unambiguous, measurable or comparable (if possible), objective,
reliable and giving evidence. For example skills which do not relate to work cannot be
taken into consideration during appraisal. The appraisal observes knowledge, skills,
competence and behavior of the employee (work-related and social).
The appraisal observes
Page 28
1) Labour performance
• Quality and quantity of work during certain time and with certain costs
• Employee's value-added to the company
2) Labour efficiency (ability to reach a target)
• Behaviour
• Expertness
• Personality
• Motivation
3) Work-related and life condition of the employee
However, the most common criteria are as follow [3]:
• Character and skills needed for work performance
• Qualifications and behavior during work
• Labour efficiency
• Interpersonal relations and style
PURPOSES OF PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL
The objective of performance appraisal falls into two categories:
1. ADMINISTRATIVE
2. SELF IMPROVEMENT
Page 29
BENEFITS
✓The process provides opportunities for individuals to: -
✓Understand and clarify their job role and responsibilities.
✓Know how they contribute towards the achievement of the company’s aim and objectives
✓Discuss the standards of performance expected for their job
✓Get constructive feedback from their line managers, which can enable the employees to bring
about changes in their behaviors, attitudes, skills and knowledge and set realistic goals for
themselves.
✓Discuss views and ideas on how their job role could be improved.
✓Understand their line manager’s role, responsibilities and priorities.
✓Performance appraisal generates significant, relevant and useful information about the
promotability and potential of employees. The information is used to assess the organization’s
internal supply of human resources and availability of managerial personnel for succession
and planning.
✓Information gathered through performance appraisal provides inputs for making decisions
concerning salary administration, financial incentives, appreciations, additional
responsibilities, promotion etc. On the basis of this, achievers and poor performers can be
given appropriate signals.
The Evaluation Process
The performance appraisal process is an essential activity designed to foster open
communication between supervisor and employee. Performance appraisal should provide both
supervisor and employee with clear and obtainable goals, activities and overall performance.
The performance evaluation process is an essential activity designed to provide consistent annual
reviews for all employees. The process is designed to offer both the employee and the appraiser
Page 30
(usually the direct supervisor) with improved communication, fair assessment and objective
views of abilities that relate to the job responsibilities.
The appraisal process is only one step in the process of continued skill development, career
growth and job satisfaction. Effective performance appraisal is a continuous process of change
and improvement, not on a single annual event. The focus is on growth and development, not
solely on past performance. The performance appraisal must be a collaborative process.
As an appraiser, you must conduct the performance appraisal process in a consistent,
professional manner. The focus of the process is on the employee’s job performance and
requirements of the goals and standards for the next review period. There are three important
parts to the appraisal process: -
- Employee self-appraisal, where the employee evaluates himself on the grounds of his
knowledge to understand the company’s policies and objectives, etc.
- Appraiser evaluation is when the appraiser evaluates the employee on certain norms and
detects the need for any additional help, etc.
- Performance appraisal meeting provides the supervisor and employee with an opportunity to
engage in an open and constructive discussion regarding the employee’s job performance,
accomplishments, areas of needed improvement, training and development and future
performance goals and expectations.
None of the above three steps may be eliminated from the process. Both employee and appraiser
must use the same appraiser form. As the appraiser, you will need to complete the following
steps. The process of completing the appraisal forms may be aided by reviewing the employee’s
history including but not limited to job skills, training, experience, past jobs and job
performance. The following outline will help you complete the process in an orderly and timely
manner.
- Describe the process to your staff (either individually or in a group)
- Distribute self-evaluation forms.
- Set a date and time for the performance appraisal with each staff member.
Page 31
- Complete your appraisal of employee’s performance

CORRECTIVE ACTION
THE EVALUATION PROCESS
1. Establish Performance Standards
At the time of designing a job and formulating a job description, performance standards are
usually developed for the position. These standards should be clear and not vague, and objective
enough to be understood and measured. These standards should be discussed to find out which
different factors are to be incorporated, weights and points to be given to each factor and these
then should be indicated on the Appraisal Form, and later on used for appraising the performance
of the employees.
2. Communicate Performance Expectations to the Employees
The next step is to communicate these standards to the employees, for the employees left to
themselves, would find it difficult to guess what is expected of them. To make communication
effective feedback is necessary from the subordinate to the manager. Satisfactory feedback
ensures that the information communicated by the manager has been received and understood in
the way it was intended.
3. Measure Actual Performance
To determine what actual performance is, it is necessary to acquire information about it. We
should be concerned with how we measure and what we measure. Four sources are frequently
used to measure actual performance:
☑ Personal observations
☑ Statistical reports
☑ Oral reports
☑ Written reports
4. Compare Actual Performance with Standards
The employee is apprised and judged of his potential for growth and advancement. Attempts are
made to note deviations between standard performance and actual performance.
Page 33
5. Discuss the Appraisal with the Employee
The results of appraisal are discussed periodically with the employees, where good points, weak
points and difficulties are indicated and discussed so that performance is improved.
6. If Necessary, Initiate Corrective Actions
Coaching, counseling may be done or special assignments and projects may be set; persons may
be deputed for formal training courses, and decision making responsibilities and authority may
be delegated to the subordinates. Attempts may also be made to recommend for salary increases
or promotions, if these decisions become plausible in the light of appraisals.
The details given above may vary from organization to organization but these steps usually form
the principal steps/features of a sound evaluation programme.
METHODS OF PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL
There are various methods of merit rating, which may be classified into:
• Traditional methods and
• Modern methods
Page 34
Performance Appraisal
TRADITIONAL METHODS MODERN
1.Unstructured Appraisal 1. Management by
2. Employee Ranking Rating Objectives
3. Forced distribution 2. Behavioral Anchored
4. Graphic- rating scales Rating Scales
5. Check- lists 3. 3600 Appraisal
6. Critical incidents
7. Field review
TRADITIONAL METHOD
Traditional methods are very old technique of performance appraisal. They are based on
trait- oriented appraisal. Evaluation of employee is made on this basis of standards of
personal traits or qualities such as attitudes, judgment, versatility, initiative, dependability,
leadership, loyalty, punctuality, knowledge of the job, etc.
Page 35
There are seven traditional methods of appraisal
1. Unstructured appraisal
Under this, the appraiser is required to write down his impression about the person being
appraised in an unstructured way. However, in some organization, comments are required to
be grouped under specific heading such as quality of job performance.
Reasons for specific job behaviors, personality traits, and development needs. This system
highly subjective and has got its merit in its simplicity and is still in use especially in the
small firm.
2. Ranking methods
Ranking is a simple process of placing employees in a rank according to their job
performance. It permits comparison of all employees in any single rating group, regardless
of the type of work. All workers are judged on the same factors and they are rated on the
overall basis with reference to their jot, performance instead of individual assessment of
traits.
Paired comparison is an improvement over simple ranking. Under this, every employee in a
job family is compared with every other employee to determine which the better worker is.
3. Forced Distribution Methods
The forced distribution system is devised to force the appraiser to fit the employees being
appraised into predetermined ranges of scale. It has an advantage over the paired
comparison system in that two or more employees can be divided into five point’s scale of
outstanding, above average, below average and poor.
Page 36
This method obviously eliminates the room for subjective judgment on the part of
supervisors. Besides this, the system is easy to understand and administer. The objective of
this technique is to spread out ratings in the form of a normal distribution which is open to
criticism. Many times, categories are not found in Workgroup, particularly when the size of
the group is comparatively smaller. As a matter of fact, forced distribution of rankings is
feasible for a large group.
4. Graphic Rating Scale
Under this method, scales are established for a number of specific factors and qualities. Five
degrees are established for each factor and general definition appears at points along the
scale. Generally, the rater is supplied with a printed form, one for each person to be rated.
The selection of factors to be measured on the graphical rating scales is an important point
under this system. These are two types:
I. Characteristics, such as initiatives and dependability.
II. Contributions, such as quantity and quality of work.
Graphic scales impose a heavy burden upon the supervisor. He must report and evaluate the
performance of his subordinates on a scale involving as many as five degrees on perhaps
ten different factors, the main drawback of this system that the rater may be biased.
However, one means of ensuring that the rater has based his scoring upon substantial
evidence is to leave space on the form after each factor and required him to explain the
reason for his rating.
5.Checklist
It also consists of two techniques:
a. Weighted checklist

b. Forced choice
Page 37
a.Weighted check list
Under this method, various statements are prepared in such a manner that they describe
various types and levels of behavior for a particular job. Each statement is attached with a
scale value. At the time of rating the employees, the superior just collects and checks all the
statements. After the weight or values are attached to the individual traits, the rating up to
this level is gathered on the rating sheet. Then the weights are averaged and employee is
evaluated.
The weighted checklist should be prepared by the persons thoroughly acquainted with job
and perfect in preparing and weighting statements. When this process is over, rating is
placed on separated cards. Then these cards are sorted by raters by who actually observed
the accomplishment of the work.
b.Forced choice
This method is used particularly with the objective of avoiding scope for personal
prejudices. Under this method, they are forced to choose between descriptive statements of
seemingly equal worth describing the person in question. Statements are chosen both the
side favorable as well as unfavorable.
For example: the following two pairs of statements may be given to the rater and the may
be asked to select one statement from each pair that is represented by superiors.
❖ Gives clear instruction to his subordinates.
❖ Can be dependable upon to complete any job assigned.
❖ Makes promises that he knows he cannot keep.
❖ Shows favoritism to some employees.
Page 38
The rater may feel that either of the two statements in a pair is applicable, but he must select
the one that is more descriptive. Only one of the statements in each pair is correct in
identifying the better performance and his scoring key secret from the rafter. In this bias is
removed from the appraisal process.
Forced choice method is also not free from drawbacks.
❖ It is very expensive to install the system
❖ The procedure involved is very lengthy and hence more time consuming
❖ It is difficult for a superior to discuss rating switch subordinates because the item is
scored by the personnel department.
6.Critical incident methods
A critical incident means a significant act by an employee exceeding or failing any of the
requirements of his job. The method requires every supervisor to record all such significant
incidents in each employee's behavior which indicate effective or successful action and
those which indicate ineffective or poor behavior. These are recorded in a specially
designed notebook which contain categories or characteristics under which various
behaviors can be recorded.
Under the critical incident methods, the supervisor is supposed to retain from passing
overall judgment and concentrate upon discussing facts as he sees them. Theoretically, this
should provide a sound and an objective basis for appraisal of the performance of an
employee. Strictly speaking, the critical incident methods are not a rating method as it
requires the supervisor to pay close attention to what an employee is doing.
This method suffers from the defect that outstanding incident happens so frequently that an
individual appraisal may not vary markedly between any two time periods. It has been
Page 39
observed that most of the time the employees have neither positive nor negative incident. If
the critical event does not happen, it will be difficult to rate an employee.
7.Field review method
Under this method, the supervisors are interviewed by an expert from the personnel
department. The expert questions the supervisor to obtain all the pertinent information on
each employee and takes notes in his book. Thus, there is no rating from with factors or a
degree, but overall ratings are obtained. The workers are usually classified into three
categories as outstanding, satisfactory, and unsatisfactory.
CRITICISM OF TRADITIONAL METHOD
The general criticism of traditional performance appraisal system is that they are too
subjective in nature because all of them are based on personal judgment of the rater. The
personal judgment is always subjected to personal bias or prejudice as well as pressure from
certain other areas. The appraiser may not be able to judge the competence of the
employees because of lack of training.
Because of the judgmental role of the superior under the traditional system, performance
ratings are frequently subjected to a number of errors and weaknesses which are discussed
below.
a) Halo error
b) Central tendency
c) Leniency or strictness
d) Recent behavior bias
e) Miscellaneous bias

MODERN APPRAISAL METHODS
There are two important methods of performance appraisal, which are used by the modern
concern. The first is Management by Objectives (MBO) which represent result oriented
appraisal. The second one is Behaviorally- Anchored Rating Scale (BARS) which is based
on rating the behavior of the subordinates
1.Management by Objective
It was Peter Ducker, who proposed goal setting approach to performance appraisal, which
he called 'Management by Objectives and self control'. This approach was further
strengthened by Douglas McGregor was concerned with the fact that most traditional
appraisal system involved ratings of traits and personal qualities that he felt were highly
unreliable. Besides, the use of such trait ratings produced two main difficulties.
1. The management was uncomfortable about using them and resisted making an appraisal.
2. It had a damaging effect on the motivation and development of the subordinates.
Goal setting approach or "management objectives" is the same as behavioral approach to
subordinate appraisal, actually called work planning and review in case of General Electric
Co, U.S.A under this approach, an employee is not appraised by his recognizable traits, but
by his performance with respect to the agreed goals or objectives. Thus, the essential feature
of this approach is the mutual establishment of job goals. The application of goal setting
approach to performance involves the following steps:
1. The subordinates discuss his descriptions with his superior and they agree on the contents
of his job and the key result areas.
2. The subordinates prepare a list of reasonable objectives for the coming period of six to
twelve months.
3. He sits with his superior to discuss these target and plans, and a final set is worked out.
Page 41
4. Check- points are established for the evaluation of progress, and the ways of measuring
progress are selected.
5. The superior and the subordinate's efforts to meet the target mutually established.
The goal setting approach is based on clear and time bound objectives from the corporate
level to the operate level. This approach can be applied with great success if the
performance appraisal program consists of the following elements:
1. Good job description is available to help setting of goals from different positions.
2. Superiors have trust in the subordinates to establish reasonable goals.
3. There is emphasis on solving problems rather than criticism of the performance of the
subordinates.
The goal setting approach has done away with the judgmental role of the superior in the
appraisal of their subordinates. It has led to greater satisfaction, greater agreement, greater
comfort and less tension and hostility between the workers and the management. This
approach is considerably superior to the traditional approach of performance appraisal, It
emphasis training and development of individuals. It is also a problem solving approach
rather than tell and sell approach. This approach has also got a built -in device of self -
appraisal by the subordinates because they know their goals and the standards by which
their performance will be measured.
The goal setting approaches suffer from the following limitation:
1. This approach can be applied only when the goal setting is possible by the subordinates.
It is doubtful if such a procedure can be applied for the subordinates.
2. This approach is not easy to administer. It involves considerable time, through and
contract between the superior and the subordinates. If the span of supervision is quite large,
Page 42
it will not be possible for the superior to have discussions with each and every subordinate
for setting up mutually agreed goals.
3. This approach mainly emphasis counseling, training and development. It is argued that
critical evaluation and modification to improve are incompatible. But in practice, it is not
possible to forego the critical aspect of performance appraisal.
2.Behavioral Anchored Rating Scales
Behavioral anchor rating scale (BARS) is designed to identify the critical area of
performance of a job, and to describe the more effective and less effective job behavior for
getting results. Performance is evaluated by asking the rater to record specific, observable
job behaviors of an employee and then to compare these observations with a "behaviorally
anchored scale"
Behaviorally anchored rating scale approach combines elements of the traditional rating
scale and critical incident method. Using BARS, job behaviors from critical incident-
effective and ineffective behaviors- are described more objectively. This method employs
individual who are familiar with a particular job to identify its major components. They are
asked to rank and validate specific behaviors for each of the components.
The various steps involved in developing BARS are as follows:
a. Identification of critical incident of behaviors.
People With knowledge of the task of the job to be probed such as holders and supervisors,
specific examples of effective and ineffective behavior related to job performance.
b. Identification of performance dimensions
People are assigned the task of developing the instrument cluster pertaining to the incidents
into a small set of key performance dimension.
Page 43
c. Reclassification of critical behavior
Another group of people who are knowledgeable about the job is instructed to retranslate or
reclassify the critical incidents generated under the previous step.
d. Assigning a scale value to the critical behavior
Each incident is related on a one-to-nine scale with respect to how well it represents
performance on the appropriate dimension.
e. Development of bar instrument
About six or seven incidents for each performance dimension- all having met both the
translation and standard deviation criteria — are sued as behavioral anchor. The final BARS
instruments consist of a series of vertical scale anchored by the final incident. Each incident
is positioned on the scale according to its mean value.
3.360 DEGREE APPRAISALS AND FEEDBACK
The 360 degree appraisal involves rating of an employee or manager by everyone above,
alongside and below him. Although deployed mostly as a fact- fining technique, 360 degree
appraisal is also used to design promotion and reward in the organization. Structured
questionnaire is used to collect responses about the employee from his superior’s peers and
subordinates.
Merits of 360 degree appraisal
1. The 360 degree appraisal leads to greater self- awareness of those appraised. It reveals
strength and weaknesses in their working style.
2. The gap between self assessment and the view of one's colleagues or peer group in
reduced.
3. If facilitate empowerment of subordinates who get a say in the appraisal of their bosses.
Page 44
4. Inflexibility managers are forced to initiate self- change.
5. Facts about organizational culture and ambience are brought to light by the multiple
appraisals.
Limitation of 360 degree appraisal
1. The 360 degree appraisal system ignores performance appraisal in terms of goals.
2. The candidate being appraised may not accept negative feedback from the subordinates
and peers. He might feel humiliated.
3. Responses from colleague often tend to be biased.
4. Linking rewards to finding less than 360 degree appraisal can prove to be unfair.
5. The subordinates and might not be fully competent in appraisal.

Beach observes
“Actual experience with rating has demonstrated that supervisors will rate their people near the
middle of the spectrum (average) if their bosses put pressure on them to correct the sub-par
performers (or get rid of them) and if they are called upon to really justify an outstanding rating.
In other words, they will follow the path of least resistance because they know that the Big Boss
will question them about those rated low or very high.

  • 8. INTRODUCTION Many organizations have realized that satisfied, skilled, hard working and especially motivated employees are very important for the organization not only because of higher performance and productivity. At the present time they may be a source of competitiveness as well. The question arises how to motivate employees, make them happy to work for the organization and let them participate on the organization's success. A performance appraisal, as a part of human resource management, is a good tool how to manage employees when it is set properly and both sides, the organization and employees, understand why the performance appraisal is so important. The performance appraisal helps the organization to observe employees' performance, behavior, skills, need for training or further education, etc. It helps the employees as well because they know where they are, what is expected from them and what they need to do to fulfill organization’s expectations. It motivates them especially when the performance appraisal is related to remuneration. The performance appraisal is the process of obtaining, analyzing and recording information about the relative worth of an employee. The focus of the performance appraisal is measuring and improving the actual performance of the employee and also the future potential of the employee. Its aim is to measure what an employee does. Performance appraisals are regular reviews of employee performance within organizations. Generally, the aims of a performance appraisal are too: • Give feedback on performance to employees. 
 • Identify employee training needs.

 • Form a basis for personnel decisions: salary increases, promotions, disciplinary actions, etc. 
 • Provide the opportunity for organizational diagnosis and development. 
 • Facilitate communication between employee and administration It is a powerful tool to calibrate, refine and reward the performance of the employee. It helps to analyze his achievements and evaluate his contribution towards the achievements of the overall organizational goals. By focusing the attention on performance, performance appraisal goes to the heart of personnel management and reflects the management's interest in the progress of the employees. Page 9
  • 10. RATIONALE People differ in their abilities and their aptitudes. There is always some difference between the quality and quantity of the same work on the same job being done by two different people. Therefore, performance management and performance appraisal is necessary to understand each employee's abilities, competencies and relative merit and worth to the organization. Performance appraisal rates the employees in terms of their performance. Performance appraisal takes into account the past performance of the employees and focuses on the improvement of the future performance of the employees. The study on Performance Appraisal of employees was carried out at” Hotel Samrat New Delhi”. The main aim of the study was to study the existing Performance Appraisal practice in Hotel Industry The primary data required for the study were collected through structured questionnaire. The second data was from the company manuals and the website of the company, Online Research papers and projects,The data were analyzed and the findings were arrived at the basis of which suggestions are made.

  • 11. Introduction to the hotel industry “Hotel” or Inn is defined by British Law as a place where a bonafide traveler can receive food and shelter, provided he is in a position to pay for it and is in a fit condition to be received”. The Hotel Industry is one important sector of the touristic infrastructure of the country. The composite tourism industry including hotel is a part of expanding International Trade in goods and services within which it represents the fastest growing and largest elements of what economist call invisible trade and its earnings. Today, tourism including hotels is the 2nd largest industry in the world with a rapid growth. The Hotel Industry has changed and developed considerably. The principle factor that determines the guest attitude towards be hotel is service received. Life is Service- is the motto of successful Hotel Men. In Hotel industry the employees are usually taught to - Push Sales - Maintain high standards - Cut Cost - Work well as team member - Have service awareness - Be a representative of his culture/country Undoubtedly, just as an unsatisfied customer is a definite loss in potential revenue, a satisfied customer is definitely a source of excellent publicity for the hotel. Importance of HRM in hotel industry HRM in Hotel Industry is an integral part of it, since it can make or end the enterprise. Much depends on the right personnel with aptitude and interaction for the Hotel Industry. After the right selection of personnel, proper training is most essential as there is no end to man’s ambition for position, power and wealth. Page 11
  • 12. Hence it is necessary the responsibilities and obligations of an employee should be appraised initially and salary should be fixed accordingly so that an employee does not feel that he is up a blindly with no further prospects of battering his position. An employee should be made to feel that good & honest work yields good result that will invariably be appreciated and recognized. Further, it came to light that these practices could be used to evolve a sound framework for research if they were enhanced in the light of views of people associated with the industry in different capacity. So, it the first stop in the direction could be to get their opinion records in put down their comments in remarks on this subject.

  • 24. HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT Human resource management has developed during past twenty years and has gained a lot of attention. The interest in human resource management has been caused by development of technology, greater competition and greater importance of productivity. According to Tyson and York inception of people management begun in 18th century at the time of the Industrial Revolution. Personnel management, the most commonly used term for managing people, has been replaced by human resource management during the recent twenty years. Some authors argue that this change has been simple fashionable renaming of personnel management while others contradict it and indicate human resource management as completely new approach. Human resource management is a broad concept with range of definitions. Bratton and Gold define human resource management as "a strategic approach to managing employment relations which emphasizes that leveraging people's capabilities is critical to achieving sustainable competitive advantage, this being achieved through a distinctive set of integrated employment policies, programs and practices." The key human resource activities very often vary in terms of name but the characteristics are similar. These activities are strategic and international human resource management, recruitment and selection, performance management, training and development, reward management, union- management relations and employee relations, and employees' health and safety. At the current situation of worldwide globalization (e.g. enlargement of the European Union) human resource functions must deal with demographic changes (e.g. employees diversity, cultural differences) more than ever before. Improvement in total quality management and business process redesign are important for increasing focus on managing people as the probable source of competitive advantage. Page 24
  • 25. 1.1 Performance Management Performance management is one of the functions of human resource management. In recent years, it has obtained a lot of attention as a key feature in achieving competitive advantage and high performance. Performance management is concerned in managing the organization and its employees to get better results from them. It helps employees to understand the organization's goals and requirements and how they can partake in achieving objectives and higher performance of the organization. Performance management is often seen as synonymous with performance appraisal but the performance appraisal is only part of the performance management process. 1.2 Performance Appraisal Performance appraisal is defined as the process of assessing the performance and progress of an employee or a group of employees on a given job and his / their potential for the future development. It consists of all procedure used in working organization and potential of employees. Performance appraisal means systematic evaluation of the personality and performance of each employees by his superior or some other persons trained in the technique of merit rating. It employs various ratings technique for comparing individual employees in a work group, in terms of personnel qualities or deficiencies and the requirements of their respective jobs. CHARACTERISTICS ✓ Performance appraisal is a process.
 ✓ It is the systematic examination of the strength and weakness of employees during the term of his job.
 ✓ It is a scientific and objective study. Formal procedure is used in the study. ✓ It is an ongoing and continuous process wherein the evaluations are arranged periodically according to a definite plan. Page 25
  • 26. ✓The main purpose of performance appraisal is to ensure information necessary for making objectives and correct decision an employee. Objectives of Appraisal ✓The main objective of the appraisal is to evaluate employee's performance fairly. It creates ✓assumptions for employee's utilization within the company and for his/her e.g. motivation, ✓performance or career. Only some of the main objectives are introduced as follow [2]: ✓• To appraise to what extent the employee fulfils his duties ✓• To qualify level of the employee's performance ✓• To appraise if the employee does his/her best at work ✓• To formulate development of the employee ✓• To recommend the employee's transfer to more/less exacting work place Other objectives of the appraisal may differ according to the situation within the company or according to the purpose of appraisal (e.g. periodicity, changes in the company). Among these partial objectives belong • To improve the employee's performance • To gain information about the employee's opinions, values • To identify suitable candidates to be promoted • To identify educational needs Page 26
  • 27. • To check foreknowledge of the employee • To identify how to improve relationship between management of the company and the other employees • To discuss work issues with the employee • To identify work and social needs of the employee • To check motivation impact of the appraisal and remuneration • To find out level of the employee's satisfaction In practice only some of these objectives are met by the appraisal. It depends on the purpose of the appraisal. The whole appraisal is more about the performance in a case of the appraisal focused on remuneration. The appraisal, focused on character of the employee or his/her behavior, is oriented on management of development and employee's motivation. The appraisal system, which is realized effectively, provides the company with very important feedback about management of the company and the employee's perception of it. Managers are supposed to do the appraisal to find out what provisions are necessary to adopt. They are also supposed to support employee's success or on the other hand to discipline failings and to motivate. Also employees expect benefits from the appraisal. The employee gets feedback about his/her performance which may motivate him/her to do better job. They get an opportunity Page 27
  • 28. to find out whether their requirements harmonies with the company's vision or they can discuss his/her remuneration. PROCESS The process of performance appraisal: ✓Establishing performance standards ✓Communicating the standards ✓ Measuring performance ✓Comparing the actual with the standards ✓ Discussing the appraisal ✓Talking corrective action What to Appraise? To conduct the appraisal well an appraiser must know which criteria are crucial for the certain employee's position and which are adequate to the form and purpose of the appraisal too. Different criteria may apply to different positions within the company. They can be general (they apply to the all positions) or special (adjusted to the particular position). These criteria should be clear, unambiguous, measurable or comparable (if possible), objective, reliable and giving evidence. For example skills which do not relate to work cannot be taken into consideration during appraisal. The appraisal observes knowledge, skills, competence and behavior of the employee (work-related and social). The appraisal observes Page 28
  • 29. 1) Labour performance • Quality and quantity of work during certain time and with certain costs • Employee's value-added to the company 2) Labour efficiency (ability to reach a target) • Behaviour • Expertness • Personality • Motivation 3) Work-related and life condition of the employee However, the most common criteria are as follow [3]: • Character and skills needed for work performance • Qualifications and behavior during work • Labour efficiency • Interpersonal relations and style PURPOSES OF PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL The objective of performance appraisal falls into two categories: 1. ADMINISTRATIVE 2. SELF IMPROVEMENT Page 29
  • 30. BENEFITS ✓The process provides opportunities for individuals to: - ✓Understand and clarify their job role and responsibilities. ✓Know how they contribute towards the achievement of the company’s aim and objectives ✓Discuss the standards of performance expected for their job ✓Get constructive feedback from their line managers, which can enable the employees to bring about changes in their behaviors, attitudes, skills and knowledge and set realistic goals for themselves. ✓Discuss views and ideas on how their job role could be improved. ✓Understand their line manager’s role, responsibilities and priorities. ✓Performance appraisal generates significant, relevant and useful information about the promotability and potential of employees. The information is used to assess the organization’s internal supply of human resources and availability of managerial personnel for succession and planning. ✓Information gathered through performance appraisal provides inputs for making decisions concerning salary administration, financial incentives, appreciations, additional responsibilities, promotion etc. On the basis of this, achievers and poor performers can be given appropriate signals. The Evaluation Process The performance appraisal process is an essential activity designed to foster open communication between supervisor and employee. Performance appraisal should provide both supervisor and employee with clear and obtainable goals, activities and overall performance. The performance evaluation process is an essential activity designed to provide consistent annual reviews for all employees. The process is designed to offer both the employee and the appraiser Page 30
  • 31. (usually the direct supervisor) with improved communication, fair assessment and objective views of abilities that relate to the job responsibilities. The appraisal process is only one step in the process of continued skill development, career growth and job satisfaction. Effective performance appraisal is a continuous process of change and improvement, not on a single annual event. The focus is on growth and development, not solely on past performance. The performance appraisal must be a collaborative process. As an appraiser, you must conduct the performance appraisal process in a consistent, professional manner. The focus of the process is on the employee’s job performance and requirements of the goals and standards for the next review period. There are three important parts to the appraisal process: - - Employee self-appraisal, where the employee evaluates himself on the grounds of his knowledge to understand the company’s policies and objectives, etc. - Appraiser evaluation is when the appraiser evaluates the employee on certain norms and detects the need for any additional help, etc. - Performance appraisal meeting provides the supervisor and employee with an opportunity to engage in an open and constructive discussion regarding the employee’s job performance, accomplishments, areas of needed improvement, training and development and future performance goals and expectations. None of the above three steps may be eliminated from the process. Both employee and appraiser must use the same appraiser form. As the appraiser, you will need to complete the following steps. The process of completing the appraisal forms may be aided by reviewing the employee’s history including but not limited to job skills, training, experience, past jobs and job performance. The following outline will help you complete the process in an orderly and timely manner. - Describe the process to your staff (either individually or in a group) - Distribute self-evaluation forms. - Set a date and time for the performance appraisal with each staff member. Page 31
  • 32. - Complete your appraisal of employee’s performance - Collect and review the self evaluation - Conduct the appraisal meeting THE EVALUATION PROCESS Page 32 ESTABLISH PERFORMANCE STANDARDS COMMUNICATE PERFORMANCE EXPECTATIONS TO EMPLOYEES MEASURE ACTUAL PERFORMANCE COMPARE ACTUAL PERFORMANCE WITH STANDARDS DISCUSS THE APPRAISAL WITH THE EMPLOYEE IF NECESSARY, INITIATE CORRECTIVE ACTION
  • 33. THE EVALUATION PROCESS 1. Establish Performance Standards At the time of designing a job and formulating a job description, performance standards are usually developed for the position. These standards should be clear and not vague, and objective enough to be understood and measured. These standards should be discussed to find out which different factors are to be incorporated, weights and points to be given to each factor and these then should be indicated on the Appraisal Form, and later on used for appraising the performance of the employees. 2. Communicate Performance Expectations to the Employees The next step is to communicate these standards to the employees, for the employees left to themselves, would find it difficult to guess what is expected of them. To make communication effective feedback is necessary from the subordinate to the manager. Satisfactory feedback ensures that the information communicated by the manager has been received and understood in the way it was intended. 3. Measure Actual Performance To determine what actual performance is, it is necessary to acquire information about it. We should be concerned with how we measure and what we measure. Four sources are frequently used to measure actual performance: ☑ Personal observations ☑ Statistical reports ☑ Oral reports ☑ Written reports 4. Compare Actual Performance with Standards The employee is apprised and judged of his potential for growth and advancement. Attempts are made to note deviations between standard performance and actual performance. Page 33
  • 34. 5. Discuss the Appraisal with the Employee The results of appraisal are discussed periodically with the employees, where good points, weak points and difficulties are indicated and discussed so that performance is improved. 6. If Necessary, Initiate Corrective Actions Coaching, counseling may be done or special assignments and projects may be set; persons may be deputed for formal training courses, and decision making responsibilities and authority may be delegated to the subordinates. Attempts may also be made to recommend for salary increases or promotions, if these decisions become plausible in the light of appraisals. The details given above may vary from organization to organization but these steps usually form the principal steps/features of a sound evaluation programme. METHODS OF PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL There are various methods of merit rating, which may be classified into: • Traditional methods and • Modern methods Page 34
  • 35. Performance Appraisal TRADITIONAL METHODS MODERN 1.Unstructured Appraisal 1. Management by 2. Employee Ranking Rating Objectives 3. Forced distribution 2. Behavioral Anchored 4. Graphic- rating scales Rating Scales 5. Check- lists 3. 3600 Appraisal 6. Critical incidents 7. Field review TRADITIONAL METHOD Traditional methods are very old technique of performance appraisal. They are based on trait- oriented appraisal. Evaluation of employee is made on this basis of standards of personal traits or qualities such as attitudes, judgment, versatility, initiative, dependability, leadership, loyalty, punctuality, knowledge of the job, etc. Page 35
  • 36. There are seven traditional methods of appraisal 1. Unstructured appraisal Under this, the appraiser is required to write down his impression about the person being appraised in an unstructured way. However, in some organization, comments are required to be grouped under specific heading such as quality of job performance. Reasons for specific job behaviors, personality traits, and development needs. This system highly subjective and has got its merit in its simplicity and is still in use especially in the small firm. 2. Ranking methods Ranking is a simple process of placing employees in a rank according to their job performance. It permits comparison of all employees in any single rating group, regardless of the type of work. All workers are judged on the same factors and they are rated on the overall basis with reference to their jot, performance instead of individual assessment of traits. Paired comparison is an improvement over simple ranking. Under this, every employee in a job family is compared with every other employee to determine which the better worker is. 3. Forced Distribution Methods The forced distribution system is devised to force the appraiser to fit the employees being appraised into predetermined ranges of scale. It has an advantage over the paired comparison system in that two or more employees can be divided into five point’s scale of outstanding, above average, below average and poor. Page 36
  • 37. This method obviously eliminates the room for subjective judgment on the part of supervisors. Besides this, the system is easy to understand and administer. The objective of this technique is to spread out ratings in the form of a normal distribution which is open to criticism. Many times, categories are not found in Workgroup, particularly when the size of the group is comparatively smaller. As a matter of fact, forced distribution of rankings is feasible for a large group. 4. Graphic Rating Scale Under this method, scales are established for a number of specific factors and qualities. Five degrees are established for each factor and general definition appears at points along the scale. Generally, the rater is supplied with a printed form, one for each person to be rated. The selection of factors to be measured on the graphical rating scales is an important point under this system. These are two types: I. Characteristics, such as initiatives and dependability. II. Contributions, such as quantity and quality of work. Graphic scales impose a heavy burden upon the supervisor. He must report and evaluate the performance of his subordinates on a scale involving as many as five degrees on perhaps ten different factors, the main drawback of this system that the rater may be biased. However, one means of ensuring that the rater has based his scoring upon substantial evidence is to leave space on the form after each factor and required him to explain the reason for his rating. 5.Checklist It also consists of two techniques: a. Weighted checklist
 b. Forced choice Page 37
  • 38. a.Weighted check list Under this method, various statements are prepared in such a manner that they describe various types and levels of behavior for a particular job. Each statement is attached with a scale value. At the time of rating the employees, the superior just collects and checks all the statements. After the weight or values are attached to the individual traits, the rating up to this level is gathered on the rating sheet. Then the weights are averaged and employee is evaluated. The weighted checklist should be prepared by the persons thoroughly acquainted with job and perfect in preparing and weighting statements. When this process is over, rating is placed on separated cards. Then these cards are sorted by raters by who actually observed the accomplishment of the work. b.Forced choice This method is used particularly with the objective of avoiding scope for personal prejudices. Under this method, they are forced to choose between descriptive statements of seemingly equal worth describing the person in question. Statements are chosen both the side favorable as well as unfavorable. For example: the following two pairs of statements may be given to the rater and the may be asked to select one statement from each pair that is represented by superiors. ❖ Gives clear instruction to his subordinates. ❖ Can be dependable upon to complete any job assigned. ❖ Makes promises that he knows he cannot keep. ❖ Shows favoritism to some employees. Page 38
  • 39. The rater may feel that either of the two statements in a pair is applicable, but he must select the one that is more descriptive. Only one of the statements in each pair is correct in identifying the better performance and his scoring key secret from the rafter. In this bias is removed from the appraisal process. Forced choice method is also not free from drawbacks. ❖ It is very expensive to install the system ❖ The procedure involved is very lengthy and hence more time consuming ❖ It is difficult for a superior to discuss rating switch subordinates because the item is scored by the personnel department. 6.Critical incident methods A critical incident means a significant act by an employee exceeding or failing any of the requirements of his job. The method requires every supervisor to record all such significant incidents in each employee's behavior which indicate effective or successful action and those which indicate ineffective or poor behavior. These are recorded in a specially designed notebook which contain categories or characteristics under which various behaviors can be recorded. Under the critical incident methods, the supervisor is supposed to retain from passing overall judgment and concentrate upon discussing facts as he sees them. Theoretically, this should provide a sound and an objective basis for appraisal of the performance of an employee. Strictly speaking, the critical incident methods are not a rating method as it requires the supervisor to pay close attention to what an employee is doing. This method suffers from the defect that outstanding incident happens so frequently that an individual appraisal may not vary markedly between any two time periods. It has been Page 39
  • 40. observed that most of the time the employees have neither positive nor negative incident. If the critical event does not happen, it will be difficult to rate an employee. 7.Field review method Under this method, the supervisors are interviewed by an expert from the personnel department. The expert questions the supervisor to obtain all the pertinent information on each employee and takes notes in his book. Thus, there is no rating from with factors or a degree, but overall ratings are obtained. The workers are usually classified into three categories as outstanding, satisfactory, and unsatisfactory. CRITICISM OF TRADITIONAL METHOD The general criticism of traditional performance appraisal system is that they are too subjective in nature because all of them are based on personal judgment of the rater. The personal judgment is always subjected to personal bias or prejudice as well as pressure from certain other areas. The appraiser may not be able to judge the competence of the employees because of lack of training. Because of the judgmental role of the superior under the traditional system, performance ratings are frequently subjected to a number of errors and weaknesses which are discussed below. a) Halo error b) Central tendency c) Leniency or strictness d) Recent behavior bias e) Miscellaneous bias Page 40
  • 41. MODERN APPRAISAL METHODS There are two important methods of performance appraisal, which are used by the modern concern. The first is Management by Objectives (MBO) which represent result oriented appraisal. The second one is Behaviorally- Anchored Rating Scale (BARS) which is based on rating the behavior of the subordinates 1.Management by Objective It was Peter Ducker, who proposed goal setting approach to performance appraisal, which he called 'Management by Objectives and self control'. This approach was further strengthened by Douglas McGregor was concerned with the fact that most traditional appraisal system involved ratings of traits and personal qualities that he felt were highly unreliable. Besides, the use of such trait ratings produced two main difficulties. 1. The management was uncomfortable about using them and resisted making an appraisal. 2. It had a damaging effect on the motivation and development of the subordinates. Goal setting approach or "management objectives" is the same as behavioral approach to subordinate appraisal, actually called work planning and review in case of General Electric Co, U.S.A under this approach, an employee is not appraised by his recognizable traits, but by his performance with respect to the agreed goals or objectives. Thus, the essential feature of this approach is the mutual establishment of job goals. The application of goal setting approach to performance involves the following steps: 1. The subordinates discuss his descriptions with his superior and they agree on the contents of his job and the key result areas. 2. The subordinates prepare a list of reasonable objectives for the coming period of six to twelve months. 3. He sits with his superior to discuss these target and plans, and a final set is worked out. Page 41
  • 42. 4. Check- points are established for the evaluation of progress, and the ways of measuring progress are selected. 5. The superior and the subordinate's efforts to meet the target mutually established. The goal setting approach is based on clear and time bound objectives from the corporate level to the operate level. This approach can be applied with great success if the performance appraisal program consists of the following elements: 1. Good job description is available to help setting of goals from different positions. 2. Superiors have trust in the subordinates to establish reasonable goals. 3. There is emphasis on solving problems rather than criticism of the performance of the subordinates. The goal setting approach has done away with the judgmental role of the superior in the appraisal of their subordinates. It has led to greater satisfaction, greater agreement, greater comfort and less tension and hostility between the workers and the management. This approach is considerably superior to the traditional approach of performance appraisal, It emphasis training and development of individuals. It is also a problem solving approach rather than tell and sell approach. This approach has also got a built -in device of self - appraisal by the subordinates because they know their goals and the standards by which their performance will be measured. The goal setting approaches suffer from the following limitation: 1. This approach can be applied only when the goal setting is possible by the subordinates. It is doubtful if such a procedure can be applied for the subordinates. 2. This approach is not easy to administer. It involves considerable time, through and contract between the superior and the subordinates. If the span of supervision is quite large, Page 42
  • 43. it will not be possible for the superior to have discussions with each and every subordinate for setting up mutually agreed goals. 3. This approach mainly emphasis counseling, training and development. It is argued that critical evaluation and modification to improve are incompatible. But in practice, it is not possible to forego the critical aspect of performance appraisal. 2.Behavioral Anchored Rating Scales Behavioral anchor rating scale (BARS) is designed to identify the critical area of performance of a job, and to describe the more effective and less effective job behavior for getting results. Performance is evaluated by asking the rater to record specific, observable job behaviors of an employee and then to compare these observations with a "behaviorally anchored scale" Behaviorally anchored rating scale approach combines elements of the traditional rating scale and critical incident method. Using BARS, job behaviors from critical incident- effective and ineffective behaviors- are described more objectively. This method employs individual who are familiar with a particular job to identify its major components. They are asked to rank and validate specific behaviors for each of the components. The various steps involved in developing BARS are as follows: a. Identification of critical incident of behaviors. People With knowledge of the task of the job to be probed such as holders and supervisors, specific examples of effective and ineffective behavior related to job performance. b. Identification of performance dimensions People are assigned the task of developing the instrument cluster pertaining to the incidents into a small set of key performance dimension. Page 43
  • 44. c. Reclassification of critical behavior Another group of people who are knowledgeable about the job is instructed to retranslate or reclassify the critical incidents generated under the previous step. d. Assigning a scale value to the critical behavior Each incident is related on a one-to-nine scale with respect to how well it represents performance on the appropriate dimension. e. Development of bar instrument About six or seven incidents for each performance dimension- all having met both the translation and standard deviation criteria — are sued as behavioral anchor. The final BARS instruments consist of a series of vertical scale anchored by the final incident. Each incident is positioned on the scale according to its mean value. 3.360 DEGREE APPRAISALS AND FEEDBACK The 360 degree appraisal involves rating of an employee or manager by everyone above, alongside and below him. Although deployed mostly as a fact- fining technique, 360 degree appraisal is also used to design promotion and reward in the organization. Structured questionnaire is used to collect responses about the employee from his superior’s peers and subordinates. Merits of 360 degree appraisal 1. The 360 degree appraisal leads to greater self- awareness of those appraised. It reveals strength and weaknesses in their working style. 2. The gap between self assessment and the view of one's colleagues or peer group in reduced. 3. If facilitate empowerment of subordinates who get a say in the appraisal of their bosses. Page 44
  • 45. 4. Inflexibility managers are forced to initiate self- change. 5. Facts about organizational culture and ambience are brought to light by the multiple appraisals. Limitation of 360 degree appraisal 1. The 360 degree appraisal system ignores performance appraisal in terms of goals. 2. The candidate being appraised may not accept negative feedback from the subordinates and peers. He might feel humiliated. 3. Responses from colleague often tend to be biased. 4. Linking rewards to finding less than 360 degree appraisal can prove to be unfair. 5. The subordinates and might not be fully competent in appraisal. Page 45

Certificate of Merit by Managing Director/ General Manager Beach observes “Actual experience with rating has demonstrated that supervisors will rate their people near the middle of the spectrum (average) if their bosses put pressure on them to correct the sub-par performers (or get rid of them) and if they are called upon to really justify an outstanding rating. In other words, they will follow the path of least resistance because they know that the Big Boss will question them about those rated low or very high. Page 51
