INTRODUCTION
As a distinct and formal management procedure used in the evaluation of work performance. Its roots in the early 20th century can be traced to Taylor's pioneering Time and 9
PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL-IN SAHARA INDIA Motion studies. The practice of appraisal is a very ancient art. Appraisal, it seems, is both inevitable and universal. In the absence of a carefully structured system of appraisal, people will tend to judge the work performance of others, including subordinates, naturally, informally and arbitrarily. Without a structured appraisal system, there is little chance of ensuring that the judgments made will be lawful, fair, defensible and accurate. Performance appraisal systems began as simple methods of income justification. That is, appraisal was used to decide whether or not the salary or wage of an individual employee was justified. Performance Appraisal is defined as the process of assessing the performance and progress of an employee or a group of employees on a given job and his / their potential for future development. It consists of all formal procedures used in working organizations and potential of employees. According to Flippo, Performance Appraisal is the systematic, periodic and an important rating of an employees excellence in matters pertaining to his present job and his potential for a better job.
Modern Appraisal
Performance appraisal may also be defined as a structured formal interaction between a subordinate and supervisor, that usually takes the form of a periodic interview (annual or semi-annual), in which the work performance of the subordinate is examined and discussed, with a view to identifying weaknesses and strengths as well as opportunities for improvement and skills development. Appraisal results are used, either directly or indirectly, to help determine reward outcomes.
RATIONALE
The rationale underlying performance appraisal programmes involves considerations. It is a truism that contributions of individuals to the enterprise lead to employee rewards. In situations, where it is possible to measure production, there exists no need for assessing employees because they can be rewarded in terms of amount of their production. However, if it is not possible in some positions to measure the work accomplished by the individuals, the personal traits which are likely to cause enhanced productivity and facilitate their work. Performance may be incorporated in the appraisal form and used for assessment purposes. 10
The following traits are usually found to form-the basis for appraisal: ability to understand people, readiness to accept new ideas, learning ability, judgment, reliability and responsibility, common sense and initiative, attitude towards superiors, attitude towards subordinates, attitude towards associates, safety-mindedness, attendance, cooperation and helpfulness! Health and physical endurance, adaptability, etc. Although these characteristics can be correlated with specific features of job performance to infer a cause and effect relationship between personal traits and job performance, the ratings assigned by superiors to their subordinates are usually susceptible to subjectivity and thus, do not involve scientific precision and objectivity. Therefore, it is not possible on the basis of these ratings to make finite differentiations in the employees' productivity and performance and accordingly make precise personnel decisions. Performance appraisal is a method of evaluating the job performance of an employee. It is an ongoing process of obtaining, researching, analyzing and recording information about the worth of an employee.
11
To review the performance of the employees over a given period of time. To judge the gap between the actual and the desired performance. To help the management in exercising organizational control. Helps to strengthen the relationship and communication between superior subordinates and management employees.
To diagnose the strengths and weaknesses of the individuals so as to identify the training and development needs of the future.
To provide feedback to the employees regarding their past performance. Provide information to assist in the other personal decisions in the organization. Provide clarity of the expectations and responsibilities of the functions to be performed by the employees.
To judge the effectiveness of the other human resource functions of the organization such as recruitment, selection, training and development.
SIGNIFICANCE
Flippo thinks that systematic "performance appraisal" is of utmost significance in organization settings. It provides highly useful information in much advance of time which is of great assistance in making and enforcing decisions regarding various personnel aspects such as promotions, pay increments, layoffs and transfers. The performance appraisals are also of great significance in so far as they provide useful criteria for determining the validity of selection and training methods and techniques and form concrete measures for attracting individuals of higher caliber to the enterprises 12
HYPOTHESIS
Hypothesis 1: The level of importance a supervisor views in the performance appraisal process will be positively related to the supervisor putting forth effort to perform the performance appraisal accurately. Hypothesis 2: A supervisors perception of justice in the performance appraisal process will positively correlated with a supervisor accurately completing the performance appraisal process. Hypothesis 3: Accurately completing the performance appraisal process will be positively related to performance appraisal effectiveness. Hypotheses 4: Performance appraisal accuracy will mediate the relationship between the supervisors perception of the importance of the performance appraisal and the supervisors accuracy in completing the performance appraisal process. Hypotheses 5: An employees level of organizational commitment will positively correlate with the effectiveness of the performance appraisal.
ASSUMPTIONS
The use of the performance appraisal seems so logical until you look a little deeper. Below are some assumptions that must be true if performance evaluations, as we presently do them (sit down once or twice a year and talk about how the employee is doing), can be valuable and valid.
Evaluation will improve an employees performance. The standards of evaluation are related to factors demonstrably important to the organization and its customers. The standards are reasonable and achievable.
13
The employee being evaluated has control over the results. Each system in which an employee works is stable and capable of delivering the expected results.
The employees individual contribution can be discerned from the contributions of the system and other managers and workers in the system.
The processes with seemingly identical equipment, materials, training, job description, etc., are, in fact, identical. The evaluation covers performance over the entire cycle of evaluation, not just the period recallable by accurate memory.
All evaluators are consistent with each other. Each evaluator is consistent from one employee to the next.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Primary Data Data will be collected by questioning the people working in various Sectors. Information will be collected by interviewing the people affected by the Performance Appraisal, also discussion technique.
Secondary Data Data will be collected from books, journals and magazines. Also newspaper and various websites.

PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL-IN SAHARA INDIA From the pen of our Chief Guardian
In business profit earnings and overall growth of business get the highest priority and are certainly creditable, but ultimate credibility of business enterprise, particularly of larger ones is in the utilization of profit be it for best possible enlistment of its workforce and for espousing Social, National Development causes, or for rendering services to mankind as a whole. Fulfilling the qualitative aspect of utilization of profit, the worlds largest family Sahara India Pariwar is proud to have reached today new horizons of growth and development. On the threshold of a new leap forward, now we once again dedicate to you those values and ideals which have shown us the way to this journey to our present proud position-Emotion before Economics, Principles before Profit, Values before Wealth, Man before Money, Country before Religion, Quality before Quantity, Conscience before Corporation, Family before Fortune. On the basis of our philosophy of collective materialism we have always given importance to the fact that profit earning is the Quantitative aspect whereas the proper utilization of profit is the Qualitative aspect. Ironically we only recognize and get recognized by the Quantitative aspect. I, therefore earnestly appeal to one and all in Politics, Media, Business etc. that every action, reaction, selection, appreciation or criticism should be oriented strictly towards the Qualitative aspect. I appeal to anybody and everybody to accord top priority to Qualitative aspect in anything and everything for peaceful, prosperous and progressive co-existence of mankind anywhere and everywhere. 18
Today, I feel proud of the fact that I am the Guardian of the World's largest family. Perhaps, I am the world's only person whose family is so vast, so disciplined, so dedicated and so committed. Such a vast family as Sahara India Pariwar has a grand and infinite future and I am sure that we will sustain our duty, consciousness, discipline and dutifulness with a sense of dedication, as we have always done in the past, so that together we could build an India full of energy and radiance.

Review of literature
1. Douglass: Performance appraisal is a method of acquiring and processing the
information needed to improve an individual employees performance and accomplishments. 2. Newstrom: It is the process of evaluating the performance of employees, sharing that
information with them and searching for ways to improve their performance.
Talent Management is directed to top-level management, senior human resources, workforce and organizational development executives whose task is to optimize the abilities of their human assets to drive and improve the execution of enterprise strategy Process by which a manager or consultant (1) examines and evaluates an employee's work behavior by comparing it with preset standards, (2) documents the results of the comparison, and (3) uses the results to provide feedback to the employee to show where improvements are needed and why. Performance appraisals are employed to determine who needs what training, and who will be promoted, demoted, retained, or fired. According to Flippo, a prominent personality in the field of Human resources, performance appraisal is the systematic, periodic and an impartial rating of an employees excellence in the matters pertaining to his present job and his potential for a better job." Performance appraisal is a systematic way of reviewing and assessing the performance of an employee during a given period of time and planning for his future. Performance appraisal is the process of obtaining, analyzing and recording information about the relative worth of an employee. The focus of the performance appraisal is measuring and improving the actual performance of the employee and also the future potential of the employee. Its aim is to measure what an employee does.
20
PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL-IN SAHARA INDIA It is a powerful tool to calibrate, refine and reward the performance of the employee. It helps to analyze his achievements and evaluate his contribution towards the achievements of the overall organizational goals. By focusing the attention on performance, performance appraisal goes to the heart of personnel management and reflects the managements interest in the progress of the employees A face-to-face discussion in which one employee's work is discussed, reviewed, and appraised by another, using an agreed and understood framework. Usually, line managers conduct the appraisals of their staff, although peers can appraise each other, and line managers can themselves be appraised by their staff through 360 degree appraisal. The appraisal process focuses on behaviors and outcomes, and strives to improve motivation, growth, and performance of the appraisee. Performance appraisals should be conducted at least once a year. Performance management is the process of creating a work environment or setting in which people are enabled to perform to the best of their abilities. Performance management is a whole work system that begins when a job is defined as needed. It ends when an employee leaves your organization. Many writers and consultants are using the term performance management as a substitution for the traditional appraisal system. I encourage you to think of the term in this broader work system context. A performance management system includes the following actions:
Develop clear job descriptions. Select appropriate people with an appropriate selection process. Negotiate requirements and accomplishment-based performance standards, outcomes, and measures. Provide effective orientation, education, and training. Provide on-going coaching and feedback. Conduct quarterly performance development discussions. 21
Design effective compensation and recognition systems that reward people for their contributions. Provide promotional/career development opportunities for staff. Assist with exit interviews to understand WHY valued employees leave the organization.
Conceptualization

An organizations goals can be achieved only when people put in their best efforts. How to ascertain whether an employee has shown his or her best performance on a given job? This can be done through performance appraisal. In simple terms, performance appraisal may be understood as the assessment of an individuals performance in a systematic way, behaviors on jobs and his or her potential for future performance.
To review the performance of the employees over a given period of time. To judge the gap between the actual and the desired performance. To help the management in exercising organizational control.

b.
Essay evaluation: Under this method, the rater is asked to express the strong as well as weak points of the employee's behavior. This technique is normally used with a combination of the graphic rating scale because the rater can elaborately present the scale by substantiating an explanation for his rating. Critical incident technique: Under this method, the manager prepares lists of statements of very effective and ineffective behavior of an employee. These critical incidents or events represent the outstanding or poor behavior of employees on the job. The manager maintains logs on each employee, whereby he periodically records critical incidents of the workers behavior. Checklists and weighted checklists: Another simple type of individual evaluation method is the checklist. A checklist represents, in its simplest form, a set of objectives or descriptive statements about the employee and his behavior. Graphic rating scale: Under this method, a printed form, as shown below, is used to evaluate the performance of an employee. A variety of traits may be used in these types of rating devices, the most common being the quantity and quality of work. The rating scales can also be adapted by including traits that the company considers important for effectiveness on the job. From the graphic rating scales, excerpts can be obtained about the performance standards of employees. 25

PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL-IN SAHARA INDIA f. Forced choice method: This method was developed to eliminate bias and the preponderance of high ratings that might occur in some organizations. The primary purpose of the forced choice method is to correct the tendency of a rater to give consistently high or low ratings to all the employees. Management by objectives (MBO): MBO represents a modern method of evaluating the performance of personnel. Thoughtful managers have become increasingly aware that the traditional performance evaluation systems are characterized by somewhat antagonistic judgments on the part of the rater. There is a growing feeling nowadays that it is better to make the superior work with subordinates in fixing goals. This would inevitably enable subordinates to exercise self-control over their performance behaviors. The concept of management by objectives is actually the outcome of the pioneering works of Drucker, McGregor and Odiorne in management science.
g.
26
Features MBO emphasizes anticipatively set goals that are tangible, verifiable and measurable. MBO focuses attention on what must be accomplished (goals) rather than how it is to be accomplished (methods). MBO by concentrating on key result areas translates the abstract philosophy of management into concrete phraseology. The technique can be put to general use (nonspecialist technique). Further it is ''dynamic system which seeks to integrate the company's need to clarify and achieve its profit and growth targets with the manager's need to contribute and develop himself''. MBO is a systematic and rational technique that allows management to attain
Maximum results from available resources by focusing on achievable goals. It allows the subordinate plenty of room to make creative decisions on his own.
27
Performance management
The performance management process begins with analysis and descriptions of the job. The performance manger identifies essential functions in the job description and the strategic mission and goals of the department or organization unit. Standard of minimum acceptable performance are developed for the position with the employees. Additionally standards for performance that exceeds expectations may be set to encourage the employee to strive for even better results. Throughout the appraisal period (typically one year0 the performance manager observes and provides behavioral feedback on the performance of the employee focusing on helping the employee to achieve successful performance. At the end of the appraisal period, and in collaboration with the employee, the performance manager prepares, writes, delivers and then produces a final copy of the written performance appraisal. At any point in the process, the employee and performance manager may identify needs and creates a plan for employee education, training or development in job or career related areas. The issues related to performance management of teams and team member arise out of the variety of reporting relationships and degree of independent responsibility that teams exercise, as well as the creed to reinforce team value and efforts without undercutting individual responsibility. By following the steps outline in this guide to performance Management, you will find that the performance management process faster improve communication with your employees. You will also achieve better result for your organization unit or department.
