PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL
INTRODUCTION:
A Performance Appraisal is a process of evaluating an employees performance on jobs
in terms of its requirements or we may call it a postmortem of a subordinate performance
by his superior during a predetermined period of time, often the proceeding year.
According to Hegel- It is the process of evaluating the performance and qualification of
the employees in terms of the requirements of the job for which he is employed , for the
purpose of administration including placement, selection for promotion, providing
financial reward and other actions which requires differential treatment among the member
of a groups as distinguished from action all members equally.

Performance Appraisal is the systematic evaluation of the individual with respect to his/her
performance on the job and his potential for development.
Job Analysis sets out requirement, which are translated into performance standards, which

PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL PROCESS
UNDER STUDY
To study the performance appraisal method of IOCL, I have personally interacted various
pertinent personnel especially of personnel department of Mathura Refinery and also
interacted secretary of officer association of Mathura Refinery because I felt necessary to
know the different view on the subject matter.
To know the awareness of performance appraisal system, its periodicity, and performance
appraisal factor and whether feedback is provided then what sort of feedback gave by the
immediate supervisor, yearly assessment beside performance appraisal system, the
awareness for promotion policy and factory governing the promotion policy.
I met personally 120 officers of different grades along with set of structured
questionnaires, which were served to all to them to know their views on the subject, and in

I NI TIATE CORRECTIVE PLAN
STEP 1- ESTABLISH PERFORMANCE STANDARD
The process of evaluation begins with the establishment of performance standard. At the
time of designing a job and formulating a job description performance standard are usually
developed for the position. This standard should be clear and not vague; and objective
enough to be understood and measured. This standard should be discussed to the
supervisor to find out which different factors are to be incorporated. Weights and points to
be given to each factor and these then should be indicated in the appraisal form.
STEP 2- COMMUNICATE PERFORMANCE EXPECTATIONS
Next step is to communicate these standard to the employees lift to them, would find it
difficult to guess what is expected of them. They make communication effective and
feedback is necessary from the subordinate to the manager. Satisfactory feedback insures
7/27/2019 PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL at Indian Oil Corporation Limited Mathura Refinery
14/107
14
that information communicated by the manager has been received and understood and in
the way it was intended.
STEP 3- MEASURE ACTUAL PERFORMANCE
The third step is the management of performance to determine what actual performance is
necessary to acquire information about it. We should be concerned with how we measure
and what we measures.
Our sources of information are frequently used to measure actual performance- personal
observation reports, oral reports, written reports.
STEP 4- COMPARE ACTUAL PERFORMANCE WITH STANDARD
Fourth step is the comparison of actual performance with standard and giving grade against
the skills. The employee is appraised and judgment of his potential for growth and
advancement is done.
STEP 5- DISCUSS APPRAISAL WITH THE EMPLOYEE
The result appraisals are discussed periodically with the employees, where good points,
week points and difficulties are indicate and discussed, so that performance is improved.
7/27/2019 PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL at Indian Oil Corporation Limited Mathura Refinery
15/107
15
The information the subordinate receive about his assessment has a great impact on his
self-esteem and on his subsequent performance.
STEP 6- INITIATE CORRECTIVE PLAN
This step is the initiation of corrective action when necessary. Immediate action can be of
two types- one is immediate and deals predominantly with symptoms; the other is basic
and deals in causes.
Coaching and counseling may be done or special assignment and projects may be set;
person may be deputed for formal training courses and decision making responsibility and
authority may be delegated to subordinates.
STEP 7-REWARD FOR GOOD PERFORMANCE
The final step is the reward for their good performance and the reward can be in the
following forms-
(i) Promotions
(ii) Lateral Moves
(iii) Tack Force assignments
(iv) Over seas Assignments
7/27/2019 PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL at Indian Oil Corporation Limited Mathura Refinery

(v) Non-monetary reward
(vi) Cash reward (increment, incentive lump sum, stock
option)
LIMITATIONS OF PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL
The ideal approach to performance appraisal is that in which the evaluator is free from
personal biases, prejudices and idiosyncrasies. Inequalities in evaluations destroy the
usefulness of the performance system- resulting inaccurate, invalid appraisals, which are
unfair too. The limitations are as follows-
a) HALO EFFECT
It is a tendency to let the assessment of an individual. One trait influences the evaluation
of the person; on other specific traits the Halo effect refers to the tendency to rate an
individual. Consistently high/ low/average on the various traits, depending upon whether
the raters overall impression of the individual is favorable or not. This means the Halo
effect allows one character is lies; observation or occurrence or either good or bad to
7/27/2019 PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL at Indian Oil Corporation Limited Mathura Refinery
17/107
17
influence the rating of all performance factors. When the employee is more friendly
towards appraises, a very high rate may be given to unfriendly employee.
b) LENIENCY OR STRICTNESS TENDENCY OR CONSTANT
ERROR
Every evaluator has its own value system, which acts as a standard against which he makes
his appraisal. Some managers have a tendency to be liberal in their ratings i.e. they
consistently assign high values to their employee while at other times they may have a
tendency to assign consistently two ratings. The former tendency is known as positive
leniency error while later as negative
Leniency error The positively lenient evaluate an individual performance higher than it
actually should. Similarly in negative tendency performance is underscored than what it
should be.
c) INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES
Some people are more distinct while some are very liberation assigning the factors points.
They are unable to maintain a fair distinction between two individuals.
7/27/2019 PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL at Indian Oil Corporation Limited Mathura Refinery
18/107
18
d) MISCELLANEOUS BIASES
Bias against employees ground of sex, religion or cast is a common error in appraisal. For
e.g. a higher rating may be assigned employee who belong to some cast or community or
belong to some geographical area.
e) SOCIAL DIFFERENTIATION
Rating is some time embedded by the evaluator style over rating behavior. Social
differentiation makes evaluation using traits criteria unreliable.

LITERATURE REVIEW
A performance appraisal interview is a primary and important context for the supervisor
and employee to work together to achieve superior performance. A survey of the research
literature reveals that the appraisal interview functions to provide feedback on
performance, to counsel and provide help, to discover what the employee is thinking, to
teach the employee to problem solve, to help the employee discover ways to improve, to
set performance goals, and to discuss compensation. In addition, the literature reveals three
reasons that determine frequency of interview: the nature of the goal of the interview, the
kind of position the employee has in the organization, and the characteristics of the
employee's performance. Research on climate is centered on praise, criticism and the
superior-subordinate relationship, while that on employee involvement in the performance
appraisal process is divided into preparation and actual participation in the interview,

including goal setting. Future research in this area should investigate employee
development, credibility and interviewer style, evaluation and climate, and rhetorical
strategies.

Oil industry is perhapsthe most exiting industry in the history of civilization. Although the
history of oil traces back to seepages of oil as early as 3000 B.C., the real thrill of it started
with the oil boom in the USA. Oil business has been responsible for prosperity, war
intrigues and adventure. Search of oil and gas leads us to some of the most exotic forests,
deserts, and ocean. Perhaps some of the most beautiful man made sights in the world are
offshore platform in Deep Ocean, array of offshore rigs in remote desert or jungle or an
illuminated petrochemical complex at night. Let us understand the importance of oil and
gas industry by looking at its share in the energy supply to the world is provided by oil and
gas. More than 60% of the energy needed in the world is provided by oil and gas.
To understand oil and gas business, one needs to understand a whole spectrum of activities
from oil well to petrochemicals. Its also important to understand the trend and future of
the industry in terms of technology, economics and pricing of energy resources. Energy

price is very important for the economy of any country. Oil prices have been controlled
from time to time to a high level by the petroleum is that now natural gas is overtaking oil.
During the year 2000, the increase in the energy consumption of the world was 180 million
tons of oil. Out this, share of oil was 20%, share of gas was 55% and that of coal was
15%. It is expected that gas will replace oil as dominant energy provider in near future. Its
cleaner, cheaper and new discoveries and reserves of gas field are coming up in many parts
of the including India.
Very often the question comes up how long the hydrocarbon resources (Oil and gas) will
last. Many predict oil and gas will start depleting in another 20 to 30 years. Its a fact that
although the oil and gas industry will continue to dominate for
several decades from now, at some point of time other forms of energy will take over. So
its just the oil industry but its energy industry.

MATHURA REFINERY was established on 2nd OCTOBER 1973 but was commissioned
in the year 1982 as the sixth Indian Oil Refinery to meet the ever-growing demand of
petroleum products in northwest region of the country. Nestled between the historic cities
of Delhi and Agra, the Refinery at Mathura is situated in the mythical & mystical land of
Lord Krishna. It was set up to meet the growing product demand of north and northwestern
parts of the country including the national capital Delhi & its adjoining are

The aim of performance appraisal is to encourage employees to set his objectives for the next
time period following his past performance in order to improve his performance on the job.
These objectives should be mutually agreed, for next twelve months, as far as possible every
employee should be aware of transaction objectives, since they provide a basis for
individuals performance objectives. The other basis is the appraise and the wishes of the
employee himself. In order to set worthwhile defectives, it is necessary.
Objectives of Appraisal includes;
Effective promotions and transfers,

These objectives are appropriate as long as the approach in individual is individual.

improving the performance instead of merely assessing it.
Emphasize is not on individual assessment rewards or punishment but it is on how the
work system affects the individual performance.

specific dimensions of job performance. People involved in the job participate in finding job
dimensions and the creation of scale. In this method objectivity improves, as basis is specific
behavior.

employee need training or counseling because jobs are grouped by categories (e.g.
Production Engineer, Sales Manager, and Financial Analyst). These categories can be
broken into smaller and smaller group, if necessary. If valid performance data are

METHODOLOGY PROPOSED FOR RESEARCH STUDY
Research methodology may be understood as a science of studying how research is done
scientifically. In it we study the various steps that are generally adopted by a researcher in
studying the research problem along with the logic behind them.
Following are the steps and techniques, which were used by the investigator for
methodology: -
6.1 Universe of Study
7/27/2019 PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL at Indian Oil Corporation Limited Mathura Refinery
83/107
83
Universe covers the whole defined field on which the study is based. The present study
was carried in Mathura Refinery located on the outskirts of Mathura city when one travel
from Delhi to Agra. The environment of this area is very peaceful with green atmosphere.
Various products including petrol and diesel are manufactured from crude oil. The working
staff of Mathura Refinery is 1586. The universe of the study was all working members
included both workers and officers.
6.2 Sample Size
Sample size depends on the nature of the universe so it should represent the whole universe
without any bias. As there was huge manpower in Mathura refinery, so it was very difficult
to study each and every individual. The limitation of time and money has not permitted the
researcher to study the whole universe. So the researcher has studied only 120 individuals
of Mathura Refinery i.e. Indian Oil division and covered nine departments that
were --
Personnel and administration, Finance, Production, Fire and safety, Mechanical, Planning
and Maintenance, Power and utilities, Instrumentation and material department which
represent the whole staff of the organization.
6.3 Sampling Method
Out of various types of sampling methods the researcher had used Random Sampling, as it
was both time saving as well as easy method of picking up the sample. As random
sampling is also of many types so the researcher had used stratified random sampling for
study because it was more reliable. In this method whole population that is required for
study is divided into different groups and sample were selected from them.
Researcher Design
7/27/2019 PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL at Indian Oil Corporation Limited Mathura Refinery
84/107
84
Designing is preliminary step in every activity. It provides a picture for the whole before
starting of the work. The researcher had used exploratory researcher for gaining
experience. For this relevant literature related with the subject had been carried out. It also
includes experience survey, selection of respondents, proper questioning etc.
6.4 TOOLS OF DATA COLLECTION
Data had been collected through industrial visits. For this following methods were
used:
1. OBSERVATION METHOD: It is a direct method of study and also has
cause effect relationship, the investigator observed working condition, environment
condition, nature of job etc.
7/27/2019 PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL at Indian Oil Corporation Limited Mathura Refinery
85/107
85
2. INTERVIEW METHOD: From this inner feelings of respondents will come
out and it becomes easy to collect information about qualitative facts. As it is face-
to-face contact between the interviewer and interviewee. This technique had used
by researcher to known some feelings of the respondent from gestures, glances and
facial expression, to observe things from very close.
3. SCHEDULE METHOD: Schedule is a list of questions, which are asked and
filled in by the researcher in a face-to-face situation. It helps in recording those
things, which cannot be memorized. Since all the information is available in a
written manner therefore tabulation and analysis of the data collected will become
easy. In present study interview schedule was used to collect the relevant data,
which comprised the set of 14 questions related with the topic of study.
4. OTHER SOURCES: Secondary data has been used from reports, studies prior
conducted, records, magazines like Indian Oil annual magazines, weekly and
newspaper known as Darpan, which is published by the organization.
All business undertaking operate in the world of uncertainty, Research methodology can
minimize the
