Research Methodology

a) Rationale of the study:

Performance appraisal and job evaluation is the integral part of an organization.


Human are the main asset of an organization only when it is directed and utilized
properly. If organization can develop and implement proper job performance and job
evaluation method, this can help an organization to achieve its goal by developing
productive employees. There are many types of job evaluation system followed by the
various organizations. Each of them has its own advantage and disadvantage. Without job
evaluation an organization cannot assess their employees’ performance and cannot pay
appropriate pay, benefit and reward. As a result the organization might lose productive
employee which will interrupt to attain it objectives.

b) Objectives of the study:

I. To know about “Dada Corporation”.


II. Performance appraisal and job evaluation method followed by “Dada Corporation”.
III. Benefit of the present performance appraisal and job evaluation process followed by
“Dada Corporation”.
IV. Resistance to the present performance appraisal and job evaluation process followed
by “Dada Corporation”.
V. Present performance appraisal and Job evaluation process should be more effective
which is followed by “Dada Corporation”?

Findings and Analysis

a) Brief Description of the organization:

Since its establishment in 1974 as a headwear manufacturer, Dada has


demonstrated its commitment throughout the years to a set of core values including
integrity, innovation, and standardization. Dada has since expanded its business portfolio
to knitwear and bags, in turn transforming itself into a leading diversified textile products
company. Dada maintains successful partnerships with global market leaders such as
Adidas. Reebok, Gap, Wal-Mart, Sears, Kohl’s, and K-mark.

b) Present performance appraisal and Job evaluation process of the organization:

Dada believes on equal opportunity and Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scale.


Thus it distributed 60% (30% + 30%) of the total points for Attitude and Performance.

Evaluation points distribution:

Attendance points (25 %)


Evaluation 3-month basis

A. Lateness / early left (15%): for personal reasons only

Frequency -3 = 15 points
Frequency -6 = 10 point
Frequency -9 = 5 points
Frequency over 9 = 0 points

B. Absent / leaves (10%)

1. Present all work-days = 10 points

2. Unauthorized absent
Day 1 or more = 0 point

3. Leave enjoyed AFTER approval:

Casual leave = 8 points


Sick leave = 8 points

4. Leave enjoyed WITHOUT information but approved later on:

Casual leave
Day 1 = 8 points
Day 2 = 6 points
Page 12 of 16

Day 3 = 4 points
Over 3 days = 0 points

Sick leave = 4 points

Suggestion points (5%)


Evaluation 3-months basis

NO suggestion = 0 point
1 suggestion = 3 points
2 suggestions = 4 points
3 suggestions = 5 points

New initiatives/Loss hunting (10%)

Based on implemented ideas/ cost savings/ new income through sales etc points
will be considered as 2 or 4 or 6 or 8 or 10.

And as usual Attitude (30%) and Performance (30%) points will be considered to
evaluate a staff out of total 100%.

c) Benefit of present performance appraisal and Job evaluation process:

Dada constantly takes stock of its workforce and assesses its performance in
existing jobs to get following major benefit:

 To improve organizational performance via improving the performance of


individual contributors (should be an automatic process in the case of good
managers, but (about annually) two key questions should be posed:
What has been done to improve the performance of a person last year?
and what can be done to improve his or her performance in the year to come?).

 To identify potential, i.e. to recognize existing talent and to use that to fill
vacancies higher in the organization or to transfer individuals into jobs where
better use can be made of their abilities or developing skills.

 To provide an equitable method of linking payment to performance where there


are no numerical criteria (often this salary performance review takes place about
three months later and is kept quite separate from 1. and 2. but is based on the
same assessment).

d) Resistance to Present performance appraisal and Job evaluation process:

It is very tough to develop and implement a proper Performance appraisal and Job
evaluation system. There are lots of resistances that Dada face to implement its
Performance appraisal and Job evaluation system which are as follows-

 Identification of the appraisal criteria is one of the biggest problems faced


by top level management. The performance data to be considered for
evaluation should be carefully selected. For the purpose of evaluation, the
criteria selected should be in quantifiable or measurable terms. Thus Dada
Page 14 of 16

very frequently checks validity of its Performance appraisal and Job


evaluation system.
 Top management of Dada should choose the raters carefully. They should
have the required expertise and the knowledge to decide the criteria
accurately. They should have the experience and the necessary training to
carry out the appraisal process objectively.
 Many errors based on the personal bias like stereotyping, halo effect (i.e.
one trait influencing the evaluator’s rating for all other traits) etc. may
creep in the appraisal process. Therefore the rater should exercise
objectivity and fairness in evaluating and rating the performance of the
employees.
 The appraisal process of Dada faces others resistance from the employees,
the trade unions, politician and local people for the fear of negative ratings.
Therefore, the employees should be communicated and clearly explained
the purpose as well the process of appraisal. Dada maintains good
relationship with all related parties like trade unions, politician and local
people to make appraisal process fair and effective.

e) How Present performance appraisal and Job evaluation process should be effective?

Performance Appraisal and Job evaluation process could be more effective by


taking following initiatives against the Resistance of the Appraisal and evaluation
process.

 Performance appraisal should not be a one-way communication event. Employees


should have opportunity to discuss their performance raise questions about the
facts raise and to add their own data about their work that will reduce their
Emotion.
 Should be careful to avoid the unjustified evaluation Criteria used and the
objective should be clear and in all respect.
 Appraisers must be trained about the Appraisal and Job evaluation process for
better Judgment.
 Appraisal must be error free for correct Judgment we have to remember that at the
time of Appraisal and Job evaluation every person who is engaged for preparing
the appraisal they must be aware of the legal implications that arise.

Conclusion & Suggestion

a) Conclusion:

Performance appraisal means evaluating an employee’s current and/or past


performance relative to his or her performance standards. On the other hand Job
evaluation is the formal process by which the relative worth of various jobs in the
organization is determined for pay purpose. The main objective of the Performance
appraisal and job evaluation is to measure the current level of the employee and to
attempt to relate the amount of the employee’s pay to the extent that her or his job
contributes to organizational effectiveness. In this case study I tried to know the
performance appraisal system, resistance, benefit and to know how it could be more
effective on the practical ground of an 100% export oriented sports cap manufacturing
company namely “Dada Corporation”.

b) Suggestion:

Organization achievement is largely depends on the utilization of human


resources. Organization should foster productive employee to attain its goal successfully
and effectively which is totally depended on the appropriate Performance Appraisal and
Job Evaluation system. Thus, I think Performance Appraisal and Job Evaluation system
should be-
 First company should develop and implement a standard Performance Appraisal
and Job Evaluation system according to its ability.
 Performance Appraisal and Job Evaluation system should be clearly stated to the
employee and supported by the employee and management to maintain possible
expenses.
 Standard Appraisal form should be developed and published publicly.
Page 16 of 16

 Performance Appraisal should be done periodically.


 Validity of Performance Appraisal and Job Evaluation system should be done
periodically.

Over all, Performance Appraisal and Job Evaluation should be done without any
bias, nepotism and favoritism; it should be based on the employees’ quality and quantity
of work, productivity, attitude, educational qualification, attendance, dedication, skill,
efficiency, ability, concentration, etc.
