MAJOR FINDINGS  Performance Appraisal System in ONGC is not transparent.  Appraisers are usually unbiased  Relations with the superior affect the evaluation.  Greater weightage is given to the recent performances.  There are fixed standards to evaluate the performance but those are not clear due to the subjectivity of the topic.  Superior-subordinate relations are good. Superior helps them set and achieve meaningful goals. This makes the environment cordial and agreeable.

 Employees don’t have the opportunity to respond to the appraisal result.  Performance appraisal sheet is lucid and easy to understand and fill.  The parameters used to appraise the potential are ample.  The system being not so transparent, employees are unable to identify the performance gaps in order to prepare for the future.  The management helps provide an atmosphere where all are encouraged for teamwork.  Most of the raters have the ability to give constructive criticism in a friendly, firm and positive manner.

 Employees are being rated on their knowledge and skills.  Majority of people want that there should be some incentives based on performance.  Employees are not provided with the genuine feedback.  Management doesn’t bother much about the training requirements mentioned in the appraisal sheet.  Most of the employees want that 360o feedback system should be introduced.

RECOMMENDATIONS  The system should be made more transparent.  Discussion between appraiser and appraisee before the Appraisal process.  The genuine feedback should be provided to the employees.  The raters should always consider the performance as the only measure for the evaluation  The raters should take note of the critical performance incidents and it should not be that only the recent performances are given more weightage.  Necessary skill should be set to do the job more efficiently, set the goals as per the potential and caliber of the individual.

 Employees should have the opportunity to respond to the appraisal result. For this individual feedback should be provided.  Management should take serious note of the training requirements  Some incentives should be introduced on the performances basis.
