Question

Yoko is defining her company's performance evaluation process. Which process requirement would help her organization most effectively evaluate employees? Ensure that subjective performance indicators are used. Ensure that minimal time is spent on evaluation. Ensure that distributive justice does not apply. Ensure that evaluators are not burdened with accountability for the evaluations. Ensure that performance standards are not vague.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option E. Ensure that performance standards are not vague.

Explanation:

Option E is correct because if the performance standards are not vague and are realistic then the evaluation will be more fair. It will also not demotivate the employees as they will be accepting what went wrong.

Option A is incorrect because we can use both subjective and objective performance indicators.

Option B is incorrect because ensuring less time to appraise the performance means that the appraiser hasn't acknowledged the full scenario hence the evaluation wasn't fair.

Option C is incorrect because distributive justice must be applied. As it helps in acknowleging what the organization has done wrong with the employees that has resulted in poor performance.

Option D is incorrect because if the performance indicators are not representative of tasks for which the person was accountable then the evaluation is not fair. I will be held accountable for things which I wasn't deligated responsibility. Hence employee must be accountable for the responsibility deligated.
