and also provides training to existing employees for new targeted projects.
The organization use MOB (Management By Objective) Method for performance appraisal in their
organization. The use of management objectives was first widely advocated in the 1950s by the noted
management theorist Peter Drucker. MBO (management by objectives) methods of performance appraisal are
results-oriented. That is, they try to quantify employee performance by inspecting the degree to which
predetermined work objectives have been met. Generally the objectives are built up mutually by the supervisor
and subordinate. An important part of the MBO is the measurement and the examination of the employee‟s real
performance with the standards set. Preferably, when employees themselves have been included with the goals
and objective setting and picking up the right course of action to be followed by them, they will probably satisfy
their duties.

Also, performance management need to scrutinize how outcomes are produced, in order to gain the information
required to consider what has to be done to those consequences.
According to Levy and William (2004), if participants in appraisal perceive the system to be unfair, the
feedback to be inaccurate or the sources to be incredible, they are likely to ignore the feedback they receive.
Feedback is least useful when it is inaccurate or untrue, biased due to favoritism or politics.
A study conduct in Ireland regarding effectiveness of performance appraisal system. This study aims to
analyse the effectiveness of performance appraisal system of Khan Bank and to examine how the managers and
the employees are affecting the effectiveness of the system. The research design of this thesis is of explanatory
nature with some descriptive elements. The study findings revealed a several potential impediments that are
limiting the effectiveness of the system and the managers and employees attitude towards the PA system
negatively affects the system effectiveness. The most employees are hesitant about the appraisal process to be a
worthwhile organizational practice. The PA system of Khan Bank fails to serve the employees‟ interests and
expectations of the procedures, for example: the process is not transparent, not given accurate feedback and
doesn‟t improve the relationship with manager. Researcher suggested that „the ultimate goal of performance
appraisal should be to provide information that will best enable managers to improve employee performance‟.

A study conduct in Nigeria on Niger Delta University to identify the effect of appraisal system in Niger
Delta University on employee productivity. Researcher conduct survey method for data collection through
stratified random sampling. Correlation coefficient was used to test the hypothesis. There was a significant
relationship between performance appraisal and employee productivity and that effective appraisal system could
boost the morale of workers especially when they are rated adequately. (O.C. Onjio)
The performance appraisal has multiple purposes, but the primary goal is to improve organizations
overall performance. It is very important to clarify the objectives that performance appraisal system is
attempting to achieve. Striving to achieve multiple objectives could become a disadvantage if it leads to
dissipation of effort, energy and lack of focus (Anderson, 1993; Rees and Porter, 2001).
Fisher (1995) warned that performance appraisal more likely to fail if employees see performance
appraisal as a stick which management has brought in, in order to generate a basis for disciplinary action. Some
managers make mistakes including the maintenance of discipline as one of the goals of a multipurpose scheme.
In addition, if employees acknowledge that their pay and chance of being promoted depend on the outcome of
the appraisal process, they may try to play down any weaknesses and eager to shine their bright side (Rees and
Porter, 2001). Consequently, it does get hard to reveal an individual‟s training and developmental needs. The
primary objectives of performance appraisal system are

correlation and regression table show the positive relationship between dependent and independent variable. The
organization has a reward system for good performance and for target achieved performance. Organization gives
salary increment, promotion, appreciation in front of all, etc. as a reward after performance appraisal. For better
and continues positive result timely monitoring of appraisal system was done in organization. In addition, the
organization had properly defined performance indicators for key processes, products and services and the
indicators are monitored and discussed regularly.

The study shows the effect of performance appraisal feedback on employee‟s productivity in
Automation Solution Company, Greater Noida, and India. It was established that feedback in performance
appraisal influences the employee‟s productivity in company to a great extent. According to Heslin, Latham &
Vande Walle (2005), performance appraisal process is incomplete without the feedback given to the employee
about his appraisal and his performance. The study also found that company recruits qualified staff according to
its needs. Further, staff members at automation Solution Company are aware about goals and objectives on
organizational level and individual level also. Employees are trained and they know how they can achieve goals
and objectives. The study also found that company communicates the beneficiaries and their feedback is
analyzed and used to improve internal processes to their employees. The study also established that members of
staff are open to change and innovation and managers monitor performance in their area of responsibility.
Additionally, the organization has access to free or affordable information that may help to improve
performance (e.g. through the internet, public libraries). It is a solution provider company; it is provide software
solution to different client on their location. Client feedback also include in the appraisal of employees. An
accurate and constant feedback and coaching is a key to increase employee‟s productivity and motivation.
11. TESTING OF HYPOTHESIS
There were 3 null hypotheses to be tested. This was done based on the results of Table 6. The results
are given below.
11.1. Testing the first hypothesis
H01: There is no significant relationship between goals and objective setting of performance appraisal used in
organization and employee productivity.
To test this null hypothesis, a full regression model was fitted as shown in Table 5. The coefficient of
Performance criteria was tested at 5% significance level and found to significant (p-value=0.038<0.05). This
indicates goals and objective setting have a significant relationship with employee productivity.
11.2. Testing the second hypothesis
H02: There is no significant relationship between performance rewards given to employees used in the
organization and employee productivity.
To test this null hypothesis, a full regression model was fitted as shown in Table 5. The coefficient of
Performance criteria was tested and the p-value=0.029<0.05. This indicates that performance rewards given to
employees has a significant relationship with employee productivity.
11.3. Testing the third Hypothesis
H03: There is no significant relationship between performance appraisal feedback and employee productivity.
To test this null, hypothesis, a full regression model was fitted as shown in Table 5. The coefficient of
Performance appraisal reward was tested and the p-value=0.771<0.05. This indicates that performance appraisal
feedback does not have a significant relationship with employee productivity.
12. CONCLUSIONS
The study revealed that effectively designed and implemented performance appraisals system can bring
lots of benefits to the organization and its employees. However, it is demonstrated by the several researches that
many organizations fail to put the system into practice effectively and it is often viewed negatively by both
employees and managers. And this has negative impact on the process of system. So regular monitoring and
proper communication regarding appraisal process is must for organization performance.
In this study we sought to investigate the effect of Performance appraisal variables like goals and
objective setting, performance rewards given to employees and performance appraisal feedback on employee
productivity. We used correlation and regression analysis in the data analysis. The study found that goals and
objective setting in performance appraisal influences employee productivity and this productivity directly give
impact on organization performance. , performance appraisal probably works best when all the decided goals
and objectives like formal goals, organizational goals, and the rates' and rater's goals for performance appraisal
are set properly. Goals and objectives setting mechanisms affect performance by increasing motivation to reach
set goals.
It is quite interesting to note that employees realize little benefit after a performance appraisal.
Company provides rewards to employees for their achievement. Further where performance appraisal indicate

negative results and establishes some weaknesses the employees are agreed to a low extent that they are taken
for further training for their betterment.
The study further concludes that there is a positive relationship between performance appraisal
feedback and employee productivity but it is not significant according to data analysis. So company need some
focus on that issue because feedback provides actual position of employees work. Feedback is must for
employee productivity. Promotions, increment, job enrichment, training need, etc. all are based on performance
appraisal feedback, so it is must for productivity of employee.
