RATING COMMITTEE
ADV.
Advantage:
Using multiple raters help cancel out problems such as bias on the part of individual raters.
It can also help pick up the different facets of an employee’s performance observed by different appraisers.
SELF-RATING
Some employers obtain employees’ self-ratings, usually along with supervisors’ ratings.
The problem is that employees usually rate themselves higher than do their supervisors or peers
APPRAISAL BY SUBORIDINATE
Many employers have subordinates rate their managers, usually for developmental rather than for pay purposes
360-Degree Feedback
With 360-degree feedback, the employer collects performance information all around an employee—from supervisors, subordinates, peers, and internal or external customers—generally for developmental rather than pay purposes
The usual process is to have all raters complete online appraisal surveys. Computerized systems then compile this into individualized reports to ratees.
