1.) What type of evaluation process would you say is being used in this case? Explain this evaluation process

The evaluation process employed here is called vitality curve. It has a negative effect on employee morale and potential, where the superiors start to rank from best to worst ranks the subordinate according to their merits. The relative position of each employee is expressed in terms of the numerical rank. The appraiser rates the employee from highest to the lowest, which is an easy method. However this method speaks only about the position ans says nothing about how much better or how worse an employee is in comparision to other employees.

2.) What effect, if any, do you believe rank and yank evaluations have on managers? Do you see these effects as positive or negative? Defend your position.[ 3]

There are many consequences faced by the managers due to such evaluation some of them are as below:

Turning Promotion into Pay cuts: The employe may refuse promotions. If the employee get promoted, they might expect much better performance, if not his rating will be reduced, thus there will be reduction in compensation.

Encouraging Sabotage:They start adding excellent co worker with the existing employee to create the competition. This make difficult to improve the rating for the exisitng employees. Thus making difficult to arrive the rating, as everyone works equally.

Reduction in Productivity: The workforce is reduced, even if the workload is high and hiring managers are put in intense pressure of hiring new candidates. Due to which low calibre employees are hired, whcih affects the productivity.

This has a negative impact on the entity’s growth. As this doesn’t give oppurtunity for the employee. This destroy the morale of the employee. It leads to discrimination. It is said that rank-and-yank puts success or failure of the organization on the shoulders of the individual worker.

3.) What role does such a system have in distorting performance appraisals?

This system is distorting performance appraisal in many ways. Few discussed below

  • Mangers commit mistakes, while evaluating the performance, and this may show variations in the ranking.
  • The employee’s appraisal is completely, based on the positive quality, where as the negative factors are completely ignored. Even if the worker has failed to perform in one area, he is rated high, based on the performance in other area.
  • There can be personal biases, as that the way the supervisor sees him, whether he like or dislikes him, has a tremendous effect on performance rating.
  • There can be a spillover effect, where the employee who performed well in the past is assumed to perform well in the present and he is rated same as the past.
  • Management can have a central tendency, where they rate all the employees as a average performer. They will neither rate them low nor high.

4.) Write your suggestions/opinions to create better performance appraisal system in the Organization

The are many appraisal system, which are much better than this system, like Self Assessments, Peer Assessments, 360-Degree Appraisal and negotiated performance appraisal, which will encourage the employees to perform better. Any one of these methods can be applied, which can eliminate the consequences faced from earlier one. These methods may avoid the conflict between the employees and employer, as the individual performance is monitor, based on the achievements and completion of target set for the given period.
