Document Summary
Work performance is typically rated by supervisors on an annual basis. Employees are typically informed of heir performance ratings and meet with their supervisor to discuss their ratings. Generally, more than one dimension of performance is rated. Performance is divided into dimensions such as quality , written and oral communication , demonstrating effort , cooperation with others etc. See cleveland, murphy and williams (refer to article). This article summarizes all the benefits of ratings to the organization. The organization can use these to determine where they need to improve. In the chart the scale is from 1-7 (1 meaning no impact) The model that murphy used at the end of their chapter is very good (box chart). The performance rating is a public statement (may not always be exactly what the rater believes). The performance judgment is what is in the raters head, what the rater really believes of the rate.
