CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION AND DESIGN OF THE STUDY
The history of performance appraisal is quite brief. Its roots in the early
20th century can be traced to Taylor's pioneering Time and Motion studies. But
this is not very helpful, for the same may be said about almost everything in the
field of modern human resources management. As a distinct and formal
management procedure used in the evaluation of work performance, appraisal
really dates from the t ime of the Second World War - not more than 60 years
ago.
In many organizations - but not all - appraisal results are used, either
directly or indirectly, to help determine reward outcomes. That is, the appraisal
results are used to identify the better performing employees who should get the
majority of available merit pay increases, bonuses and promotions.
By the same token, appraisal results are used to identify the poorer
performers who may require some form of counseling, or in extreme cases,
demotion, dismissal or decreases in pay. (Organizations need to be aware of
17
laws in their country that might restrict their capacity to dismiss employees or
decrease pay.)
The purpose of this study has been to determine whether the performance
appraisal used by the organization satisfies the employees under various
category and whether the appraisal was emphasized as an important part of the
performance appraisal process.
1:1 Importance of the study
The present study is expected to identify the factors of dissatisfaction in the 360 degree
performance appraisal system which would directly improve the employee performance
thereby significantly increasing the company profit.
This study will also enable the personnel department to identify the factors influencing
the performance appraisal which leads to turn over of the employees due to the
dissatisfaction with the performance appraisal given to them.
1:2 Scope of the study
To identify the behavior and the honesty of the company in giving performance appraisal.
To suggest in what factors the company has to show their attention regarding
performance appraisal.
To know the opinion of the employees, about the company’s 360 degree performance
appraisal system.
18
1:3 Objectives of the study
Conduct a study on the 360 degree performance appraisal among the employees of Life
Insurance Corporation of India, Neyyattinkara branch.
To study the satisfactory level of employees on the performance appraisal given by the
company
To identify the factors on which the employees are dissatisfied with the performance
appraisal given to them.
1:4 Review of Literature
According to Mary N. Vinson,
A 1993 survey on 100 fortune 500 companies by the Wyatt company showed that only 10
percent of the employees were satisfied with their performance appraisal systems. Most said that
annual reviews that were perfunctory discussions that dealt mainly with salary. Still, other
surveys indicate that most employees think performance appraisals are a good idea. They want to
know where they stand and what they must do to improve. If the employees say that they are
dissatisfied with the current appraisal system, what is the alternative?
One alternative is 360 degree feedback which is also called multirater feedback, upward
appraisal, full-circle feedback, and peer review. Though many companies are still using one-way,
downward feedback, another Wyatt study showed a beginning trend in upward feedback. The
1992 study found that subordinates were critiquing their superiors and peers in 12 percent of the
397 U.S. companies surveyed. By 1993, the figure was up to 26 percent.
Upward feedback:
19
Upward feedback gathers behavioural observations from different groups within an organization.
The feedback providers – bosses, peers, and subordinates – fill out a form that summarizes an
employee’s skills, abilities, styles, and job – related competencies. There’s no ideal number of
feedback providers. Typically, external assessment consultants request four to ten feedback
providers per feedback receipent. Most consultant say that who gives feedback is more important
than how many.
As a director, Mary N. Vinson says that in a large company, her experience with 360 degree
feedback was in 1991, at a six week executive program at the university of Pittsburgh. At the
time, 360 degree feedback was rarely used. She received a ‘ Leadership Practices Inventory ‘ that
required her to conduct a self – assessment and distribute assessment surveys to her peers,
subordinates, and the boss. She probably chose the “ best “ candidates for feedback was
anonymous, though it was grouped by the categories “ peer, subordinates, and superior “. He
Back then she thought that feedback from bosses was the most valuable because they made the
decisions about salaries and promotions. Other people had told that they felt the same way.
Downward feedback:
Feedback can hurt. Evaluators aren’t always nice or positive. People can see their role as a
feedback provider as an opportunity to criticize others’ behavior on the job. Interestingly , many
feedback experts say that the most devastating criticism to the people is to be labeled “
untrustworthy “.
Another flaw concerns conflicting opinions. Who decides who is right? What’s more, employees
can stack the deck by choosing their friends to provide feedback. Then one has to question how
valuable the process is. Another potential problem is when people experience “ survey fatigue “
from having to fill countless forms. How accurate and reliable is the feedback.
Another area for concern is whether the feedback is truthful. Suppose that you have to fill out a
form on someone you don’t like. It’s difficult to own up to negative feelings on paper, so you
might equivocate. Or, you might vent. Mary admits that she has been less than candid on
20
occasion, often because she doesn’t want to answer certain questions or hurt someone’s feelings.
Whatever the reason, if the feedback isn’t truthful, it isn’t going to be useful.
Does 360 degree feedback improve performance? Too often, managers receive feedback, resolve
to do better, and nothing changes. That can happen whether the feedback is 360 degree or
traditional, especially when it involves a strong personality. According to feedback specialists at
the Center for Creative Leadership in Greensboro, North Carolina, it takes massive doses of
feedback for some people’s lights to come on. People may intend to act on feedback but then feel
that they are too busy to change their behavior. Or, they may lose their commitment. Or, they
may run into resistance from their subordinates and bosses. They may even convince themselves
that the feedback isn’t true, especially if it wasn’t a universally held opinion. Perhaps the fault
lies in the feedback instrument.
In one case, a company recently began using 360 degree feedback to assess its senior ranks.
Executive officers were asked to complete a self assessment and to distribute feedback surveys to
two “ direct reports “ and two “ indirect reports “ to complete. The executives could also give the
form to two peers.
The executives were apprehensive. It had been a long time since lower level people had
appraised them. The feedback instrument included seven rating areas and some open ended
questions. The executives expected the open ended portion to benefit them most, assuming that
the feedback providers would be candid – a big assumption considering that people were rating
the most senior executives. In fact, many of the subordinates thought that it was dangerous to be
completely truthful in this situation.
Once the feedback was compiled and tabulated, the executives were supposed to call a consultant
to discuss the results. Some called; some didn’t. When they were asked whether they’d acted on
the feedback, some said that they “ tried to pay attention to what everyone was saying”. But all
of them admitted that it was very easy to slip back into their usual behavior.
1.4 Limitations of the study
21
Any research has its own limitation. The limitation may be due to time and source of information
and knowledge. The researcher had faced many of these constrains .The limitation which I had
undergone during this study, were,
It is not sure that the sample which were selected for collecting data may represent the
whole population
No scientific method was used in choosing the samples for the study
The time specified for the duration for the study was very limited
The data given by the employees may not be true or correct. But these data was taken for
the analysis .so it may affect the accuracy of the result of this study
1.6 Research Methodology
Research design:
As research design is the arrangement of the conditions and analysis of data in a
manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with economy in procedure.
The study is Descriptive in nature. On the basis of the information collected logical
conclusions have been drawn.
Descriptive research:
Descriptive studies are concerned with describing the characteristics of a particular
individual or group. Often by creating a profile of a group of problems, people, or events through
the collection of data and the tabulation of the frequencies on research variables. The study
reveals who, what, when, where, or how much. The Descriptive study well structured it is
necessary that the researcher give sufficient thought to frame the research questions and
deciding.
22
Thus the study is descriptive in nature where the data is collected through well
structured questionnaire and from the information available in the organization.
Source of data collection:
Primary data and secondary data were used to analyze the information obtained.
Primary data:
The primary data is collected from the respondents through the well structured
questionnaire. The data was collected through direct methods that are directly from the
respondents from different the LIC employees from Neyyattinkara branch office.
The responses are collected on a 4 point scale. The scores are:
1------- Strongly disagree
2------- Disagree
3------- Agree
4------- Strongly agree
Secondary data:
The secondary data was collected from internal source as well as external source. Internal
source of data is collected from website magazines, HR manuals etc. The external source of data
is collected from the Internet and also from the textbooks.
Sampling design:
23
A sample design is a definite plan for obtaining a sample from a given population. The
survey was conducted from a population of 60 employees was taken and then the survey was
conducted.
Sample size and area:
The sample size collected for this research is 54, which has been collected from LIC
employees from Neyyattinkara branch office.

CHAPTER II
PROFILE OF THE ORGANISATIONORGANISATION PROFILE
The geographical area of this branch is 571 sq. kms.
The Neyyattinkara Branch under Thiruvananthapuram Division started functioning on
28.07.1984. The jurisdiction of the branch is over the entire Neyyattinkara Taluk excluding
Thiruvallam Panchayat and adding Kattakada Panchayat to the branch area from Vellanad block.
Kanyakumari and Thirunelveli Districts of Tamilnadu surround the branch area on the
Southy and East, the Thiruvananthapuram and Nedumangad Taluks cover the Northern side and
west is protected by Arabian Sea.
25
Neyyattinkara has a rich cultural heritage. It could be proud of some famous
personalities like Swadesabhimani Ramakrishna Pillai, the well – known revolutionary in the
history of Malayalam journalism. There is an auditorium in Neyyattinkara town in the memory
of the late. Sri. Ramakrishna Pillai. The general terrain of the land is of hilly, and rubber
plantations dominate the Eastern of the Taluk.
Neyyattinkara is not largely industrialized. Agriculture is the major source of income of
people. Coconut is the main crop. Paddy and other crops bear only a small portion of the total
agricultural output. Now a days, because of intensive KHDP activities, vegetable growers,
mainly banana growers flourish well in the field of agriculture. Diary and poultry are also mainly
undertaken as resources of income. A good lot of Co – operative milk societies, mainly
KSHEERA, the most profitable milk societies in Kerala, are in our area.
There are only a very few industrial establishments in the area. Kerala Automobiles Ltd.,
is a famous industry working in this area. Handloom weaving is another industry of importance.
Balaramapuram is very famous for its handloom textile products. An eminent portion of the
population depends on handloom weaving for their livelihood. A substantial part of the rural
population depends on the brick making industry.
Neyyattinkara Taluk is having a very lengthily seashore. Many people are engaged in
fishing activity. A very large Fishing harbor project is under construction at Vizhinjam. This area
is thickly populated and the per capital income is low, since a major portion of the population
depends on agriculture.
The internationally famous Kovalam beach resort is situated in our branch area. Hotel
industry in and around Kovalam is a flourishing well in these areas. Neyyar Dam is another place
of tourist importance. The traditional Ayurveda resorts are functioning well in these areas.
Neyyattinkara town is the main urban centre and Taluk head quarters. Our branch is situated near
KSRTC bus station in the town.

360 DEGREE
PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL
360 DEGREE PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL
31
360 degree performance appraisal, also known as 'multi-rater feedback', is the most
comprehensive appraisal where the feedback about the employees’ performance comes from all
the sources that come in contact with the employee on his job.
360 degree respondents for an employee can be his/her peers, managers (i.e. superior),
subordinates, team members, customers, suppliers/ vendors - anyone who comes into contact
with the employee and can provide valuable insights and information or feedback regarding the
“on-the-job” performance of the employee. It is based on the assessment of an individual's
management styles, competencies and behaviour by colleagues horizontally and vertically by
involving his boss, peers and direct reports in the organization.
360-degree feedback is a multi source assessment, which includes
* Self,
* Supervisor
* Internal Customers/peers/Staffs
* External Customers
Need for 360 degree feedback : Business is towards surplus generation. Without surplus no
organisation can grow. Here the effort to grow the business and the surplus should come from
employee part. The performance of the employees is at work here matters in business
32
development and organisational development. The performance of the employees should then
align with the strategic decisions that integrate the business goals in an increasingly competitive
environment. It is the responsibility of the Human Resource Management to integrate the culture
of the organisation with all available resources to the optimum out put. The 3600 Appraisal helps
the HR Department to have better understanding of the competitive advantage and disadvantages
of the current manpower resources and tune them towards performance excellence and
productivity.

5:2 RECOMMENDATIONS
An innovative system could not only increase the performance of the staff, but also help
them to work together, with common goals and fewer obstacles.
It could help people to comment on others' performance and perceived problems more
freely.
They can bring out things which are normally never spoken, reducing tension, improving
communications, and most likely raising the employees' (or the manager's) performance
considerably.
Involve your employees in the process. If they design the new performance appraisal
system, they may be more dedicated to it--and both you and your employees can reap the
benefits.
It is advisable for the company to have various appraisal systems because all the
employees need not like the same kind of performance appraisal system.
The company should listen to the employees expectations.

5:3 CONCLUSION
360-degree feedback is sometimes referred to as multi-rater appraisals, multi-source
feedback or 360 degree profiling. It is essentially a process, which enables a person to receive
feedback from a number of people around them. The purpose of the feedback is usually varied
from organisation to organisation. 360-degree feedback not only acts as tool for organisational
development but also to help an individual determine areas they need to develop. The success of
the appraisal depends on the transparency and clear objectives of its need and its clear cut
intimation to the employees even at the bottom level of the organisation.
