Performance Management – A management process for ensuring employees are focusing their work efforts in ways that contribute to achieving the agency’s mission. It consists of three phases: (a) setting expectations for employee performance, (b) maintaining a dialogue between supervisor and employee to keep performance on track, and

(c) measuring actual performance relative to performance expectations.

PMS Consists of… A process for communicating employee performance

expectations, maintaining ongoing performance dialogue, and conducting annual performance appraisals;

A procedure for addressing employee performance that falls below expectations;

A procedure for encouraging and facilitating employee development;

Training in managing performance and administering the system; and

A procedure for resolving performance pay disputes.

WHY MEASURE PERFORMANCE ?

Because What you cannot measure you cannot improve. If you cannot improve you cannot grow. Measurement helps in objectively differentiating

between performers and non performers. Pay for performance is possible only through

metrics.

Objective of PMS To confirm the services of probationary employees upon

their completing the probationary period satisfactorily To check the effective & efficiency of individuals, teams

& organization To effect promotions based on competence and

performance To access the training and development needs of the

employees To decide upon the pay rise PM can be used to determine whether HR programmes

such as selection, training, and transfer have been effective or not.

Fair appraisal – Appraising employees in a manner that accurately reflects how they performed relative to the expectations defined in their work plan and in a manner that is not influenced by factors irrelevant to performance.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE SYSTEM

The appraiser and the appraisee jointly set the Key Result Areas (KRA’s) and assign mutually agreed weightage expressed as a percentage

Simple mathematical relationship between set weightage and accomplishment gives a final numerical score on KRA’s

To evaluate all management personnel on company values and leadership attributes a new section has been added entitled “Values in Action”

WHAT IS A KEY RESULT AREA ?

A KRA refers to a target that needs to be achieved by the appraisee in a given time

KRA’s are the set of performance expectations from the appraisee

The focus is on tangible outputs. However this does not mean that tasks that have a qualitative output cannot form a KRA

Setting KRA in case of a Functional Reporting Relationship

Functional reporting cases will require input from the functional superior in setting KRAs for the appraisee.

The appraiser , the appraisee and the functional superior will have to mutually agree upon the KRAs for the appraisee.

In case of a disagreement , it will be the functional superior’s responsibility to convince the administrative superior to reach an agreement on the KRAs and

communicate the same to the appraisee. In some cases, functional goals could be super-ordinate to business goals.
