Chapter 8 Rating Employees

Rating Individuals
Performance measurement can look at each employees performance relative to a uniform set of standards. The measurement may evaluate employees on terms of attributes believed desirable or the measurements may identify whether employees have behaved in desirable ways like in sales and completing assignments. Typically the rating scale is from 1 to 5 on the graphic rating scale.

Rating Behavior
To rate behaviors the organization begins by defining which behaviors are associated with success on the job. Which kinds of employee behaviors help the organization achieve its goals? One way to rate behaviors is with critical incident method this requires managers to keep a record of specific example of the employee acting in ways that are effective or ineffective.

This is good to know as an employee before you get hired anywhere, so you can always make sure you are on your best behavior. If you are aware that you will be rated on your behavior at work you will most likely be more motivated and always wanting to be on task. Its crazy to think about rating me without me knowing it, but that is there job regardless. It is a good incentive to always do your job to your best ability, so you get a good rating.
