a method by which the job performance of an employee is documented and

regular reviews of employee performance within organizations.

EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION :

Employee satisfaction is the terminology used to describe whether employees are

happy and contented and fulfilling their desires and needs at work. Many measures
purport that employee satisfaction is a factor in employee motivation, employee
goal achievement, and positive employee morale in the workplace.

In an employee satisfaction survey, employee satisfaction is looked at in areas such

as:
Management,
Understanding of mission and vision,
Empowerment,
Teamwork,
Communication, and
Co-worker interaction.
Employee satisfaction can be measured 2 ways: indirectly, by watching trends in
employee turnover; and directly, by asking employees about their level of
satisfaction via surveys, interviews, and focus groups.
Importance and Significance of the Study :

1. Performance appraisal helps supervisors to assess the work performance of their

subordinates.

2. Performance appraisal helps to assess the training and development needs of

employees.

3. Performance appraisal provides grounds for employees to correct their mistakes,

and it also provides proper guidance and criticism for employee's development.

4. Performance appraisal provides reward for better performance.

5. Performance appraisal helps to improve the communication system of the

organization

6. Performance appraisal evaluates whether human resource programs being

implemented in the organization have been effective.

7. Performance appraisal helps to prepare pay structure for each employee working

in the organization.

8. Performance appraisal helps to review the potentiality of employees so that their

future capability is anticipated.

Rationale :

Appraising the performance of individuals, groups and organizations is a

common practice of all societies. While in some instances these appraisal processes
are structured and

formally sanctioned, in other instances they are an informal and integral part of dai
lyactivities. Consciously of unconsciously evaluate our own actions from time to
time. In social interactions, performance is conducted a systematic and planned
manner to achieve wide spread popularity in recent years. Performance appraisal is
essential to understand and improve the employee's performance through HRD. In
fact, performance appraisal is the basis fore HRD. It was viewed performance
appraisal was useful to decide upon employee promotion
transfer salary determination and the like. But the recent developments in human re
sourcesmanagement indicate that performance appraisal is the basis for employee
development.Performance appraisal indicates the level of desired performance leve
l, level of actual performance and the gap between these two. This gap should be
bridged through humanresources development techniques like training executive
development etc.According to the past survey it was noticed that the performance
appraisalsystem in this company was not up to the mark. Hence there would be
scope for giving fewsuggestions as per my knowledge to improve
the performance appraisal system which wasquite essential for the better
performance of the employees.
