  1. Evaluating Employee Performance

  2. Effective and Legal Performance Appraisal Systems • Are job-related and based on a job analysis • Are properly administered • Formal • Standardized • Not too complicated • Provide specific feedback • Focus on behaviors rather than traits • Ratings are documented • Use appropriate raters • raters are trained • all relevant raters are used • Raters used must be relevant and qualified

  3. Steps in Developing the System • Create a task-force that includes all levels in the organization • Determine why you are evaluating performance (your goal) • Most systems have no goal • 90% of systems do not work (SHRM survey) • Will improving individual performance improve organizational performance? • Identify environmental and cultural variables that could affect the system

  4. Steps in Developing the System • Determine the sources to be used in appraising performance. • Assumptions (Coens & Jenkins, 2000) • Supervisors and raters are fair, objective, and unbiased • Supervisors and employees will not try to manipulate performance ratings to get desired outcomes • Raters can adequately distinguish an individual’s performance from the situational constraints (the system) • Determine the best method to accomplish your goal

  5. 1. Determine Purpose of the Appraisal

  6. What is the Purpose of the Appraisal? • Feedback and training (65%) • Personnel decisions • Raises (86%) • Promotions (45%) • termination decisions (30%) • Research • Legal or certification reasons

  7. 2. Identify Environmental and Cultural Limitations

  8. 3. Determine who will evaluate performance

  9. Who Will Appraise Performance? • Upper management • Direct supervisor • Peers • Subordinates • Support staff • Customers/the public • Vendors • Self

  10. 360º Feedback • Use • 28% of organizations (Mercer Consulting, 2005) • 65% (William Mercer survey) • SHRM Survey • 18% for nonexempt positions • 29% for exempt positions • 32% for executive level positions • Suggestions • 4-10 raters • 15 minutes to complete • Provide feedback within 6 weeks of evaluation

  11. Agreement Among RatersConway and Huffcutt (1997) Meta-Analysis

  12. 360-Degree FeedbackExercise 7.1

  13. Let's Talk Would you implement a 360-degree feedback system in your organization?

  14. 4. Select Appraisal Method

  15. Decision 1 What will be the focus of the dimensions?

  16. Goal Focus (Results) Prevent crimes from occurring Finish shift without personal injury Have arrests and citations stand up in court Task focus Crime prevention Arrest procedures Court testimony Use of vehicle Trait Focus Honesty Courtesy Responsibility Dependability Cooperation Competency Focus Report writing skills Driving skills Public speaking skills Knowledge of the law What Will be the Focus?

  17. Creating Performance DimensionsExercise 7.2

  18. How Will Performance be Appraised? • Employee Comparisons • Rank order • Paired comparison • Forced distribution • Results • Quantity • Accidents • Absenteeism • Tardiness • Subjective Ratings

  19. Decision 2 Should we use employee comparisons, objective measures, or ratings?

  20. Employee Comparison Methods • Rank Order • Paired Comparison • Forced Distribution

  21. Example of a Ranking Method

  23. Example of a Forced Distribution

  24. Paired-Comparison ExerciseExercise 7.3

  25. Objective Measures • Quantity of work • Quality of work • Attendance • Absenteeism • Tardiness • Time theft • Safety

  26. Ratings of Performance • Graphic Rating Scales • Behavior-Based Methods • Behavioral checklists • Behaviorally anchored rating scales (BARS) • Behavioral observation scales (BOS) • Behavioral expectation scales (BES) • Mixed-standard scales • Forced choice scales

  27. Graphic Rating Scale Example Job knowledge Poor 1 2 3 4 5 Excellent Patrol activity Poor 1 2 3 4 5 Excellent Decision making Poor 1 2 3 4 5 Excellent Use of weapons Poor 1 2 3 4 5 Excellent

  28. 5— A customer wanted to deposit a large amount of money. The teller explained to the customer that he could earn more interest on a money market account than with a savings account 4— A customer applied for a new auto loan and had and E/I too high for approval.

  31. Example of a Mixed-Standard Scale

  32.

  33. Types of Rating Scales • Performance based (Extent to which expectations have been met) • exceeds expectations • meets expectations • Normative based (Comparison to other employees) • above average • average • Frequency based • always • sometimes

  34. Example of Scale TypesComparison to Other Employees Dimension: Refers to Customers by Name ___ Much better than other tellers ___ Better than other tellers ___ The same as other tellers ___ Worse than other tellers ___ Much worse than other tellers

  35. Example of Scale TypesFrequency Dimension: Refers to Customers by Name ___ Always ___ Almost always ___ Often ___ Seldom ___ Never

  36. Example of Scale TypesExtent to Which Expectations were Met Dimension: Refers to Customers by Name ___ Greatly exceeds expectations ___ Exceeds expectations ___ Meets expectations ___ Falls below expectations ___ Falls well below expectations
