Kindly Suggest Me On The Entire Performance Appraisal Process

Dear All,

Please suggest to me the practical application of performance appraisal through the MBO process. I have a few queries:

1) I need to draft the performance appraisal form which will include the performance parameters KRAs, KSAs, and the ratings. When should the form be filled out by the appraisee? Is the process carried out on a yearly basis?

2) I would like to understand when the completion of the appraisal form and the review by the appraiser should be done.

I am seeking practical insights into how the overall process should be carried out. Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Shraddha Jadhav

Hi Shraddha,

I would suggest you to read the MBO process thoroughly before implementing it.

Ideally, this process is more measurable for middle to top management employees and not for blue-collar employees, for whom you can draft a ranking-scale appraisal process.

Below are the answers to your questions:

1) I need to draft the Performance appraisal form which will have the performance parameters KRAs, KSAs, and the ratings. But when should the form be filled by the appraisee? Is the process on a yearly basis?

MBO is a process that has to be reviewed and monitored on a quarterly basis, that is, after every 3 months, the targets are based on a quarterly format and accordingly the work is analyzed by the manager and his subordinate.

Why do you want to add KSAs to your MBO format? Just have KRAs and have measurable allocation to this process, that is, start and end time and weightage for each parameter.

2) I want to know when the filling of the appraisal form should be completed and the review done by the appraiser?

This process can be started from the financial year or the calendar year, depending on your management.

So, how is the overall process to be practically done? I want to know. If anyone will help me out, that will be very much helpful.

You, please read the MBO process, and you will come to know.

--Review employee’s performance in relation to objective set in Last year.
--Assess employees’ leadership competencies
--Identify key strengths and areas for improvement
--Establish objectives in principle of SMART for the coming year
--Get mutual feedback so that manager and employee get to work better
--Define a personal development plan (IDP)

Please tell me what steps an employee should take if an employer or plant manager refuses to sign the PF withdrawal form.

Hi Prashant,

You can approach the local labor department, and they will guide you on what needs to be done.

My dear friend,

This is not a one-time fix but a continuous process linked to the overall objectives of the organization. Where are you located? If in Kolkata, get in touch with me for a KRA-based BSC-linked PMS, if you are interested.
