TECHNIQUES / METHODS OF PERFORMANCE APPRAISALS :

Jubilee Life Insurance used two methods of appraisals which are following:

Past Oriented Methods

Future Oriented Methods
Past Oriented Methods
1. Rating Scales: Rating scales consists of several numerical scales representing job related
performance criterions such as dependability, initiative, output, attendance, attitude etc. Each
scales ranges from excellent to poor. The total numerical scores are computed and final
conclusions are derived.
2. Checklist: Under this method, checklist of statements of traits of employee in the form of
Yes or No based questions is prepared. Here the rater only does the reporting or checking and
HR department does the actual evaluation.
3. Forced Choice Method: The series of statements arranged in the blocks of two or more are
given and the rater indicates which statement is true or false. The rater is forced to make a
choice. HR department does actual assessment.

4. Forced Distribution Method: Here employees are clustered around a high point on a rating
scale. Rater is compelled to distribute the employees on all points on the scale. It is assumed that
the performance is conformed to normal distribution.
5. Critical Incidents Method: The approach is focused on certain critical behaviors of
employee that makes all the difference in the performance. Supervisors as and when they occur
record such incidents.
6. Essay Method: In this method the rater writes down the employee description in detail within
a number of broad categories like, overall impression of performance, promote ability of
employee, existing capabilities and qualifications of performing jobs, strengths and weaknesses
and training needs of the employee.
Future Oriented Methods

1. Management by Objectives: It means management by objectives and the performance is

rated against the achievement of objectives stated by the management. MBO process goes as
under.
Establish goals and desired outcomes for each subordinate
Setting performance standards
Comparison of actual goals with goals attained by the employee
Establish new goals and new strategies for goals not achieved in previous year.
It is more useful for managerial positions.
2. Psychological Appraisals: These appraisals are more directed to assess employees potential
for future performance rather than the past one. It is done in the form of in-depth interviews,
psychological tests, and discussion with supervisors and review of other evaluations.
3. 360-Degree Feedback: It is a technique which is systematic collection of performance data
on an individual group, derived from a number of stakeholders like immediate supervisors, team
members, customers, peers and self. In fact anyone who has useful information on how an
employee does a job may be one of the appraisers.
