| dc.description.abstract | In today’s competitive world of business, Human Resource is the main resource that gives companies take a competitive advantage. Therefore proper management of this resource is crucial for the success of an organization. More than ever, in today’s climate of heightened expectations, performance appraisal system is receiving greater attention of human resource managers and decision-makers world over. They are expected to meet the interests of both employees and employers. They play multifaceted roles in setting the direction for employers regarding the decisions they take about their employees. Many organizations have moved towards making performance appraisal more effective for their decision making and holding their employees more accountable for results. As a result, employee’s performance and the way they are appraised, requires greater attention. Having this in mind, the study has been conducted in Save the Children to assess the practices in the implementation of performance appraisal. The purpose of the study is to investigate the implementation process undertaken in the performance appraisal process. To undertake the study both primary and secondary data were used. A survey questionnaire with five points Likert scale is a main tool for gathering primary data. 267 participants from the Head Office participated in filling the questionnaires. Accordingly, the data gathered were analyzed using micro soft excel and SPSS software. My finding revealed that primary purpose of performance appraisal is missing its direction of creating competitive working systems and giving balanced rewards for workers for their contributions to an organization. In the study, performance appraisal is seen to be implemented as fulfillment of criteria and not for the soul purpose PA. Employees seem to be unhappy with the current process being implemented. Thus, in order to create competitive working conditions and systems of balanced benefits for employees, performance appraisal should be understood very well particularly by Heads of and Supervisors; and, should be implemented in the desired way for the desired purposes. | en_US |
