Abstract:

Properly applied, performance evaluation can be of value in promoting good teamwork, increasing work efficiency, and assisting in the development of effective managers. The study searches for methods of improving Civil Service performance appraisal systems within the constraints of presently existing laws and regulations. The evolution of present systems is traced, and the resulting practices are examined in the light of recent research and industrial experience. Alternative appraisal methods are discussed, and broad suggestions for improvement are offered. Author
