...PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL SYSTEM OF BANGLADESH CIVIL SERVICE: AN ANALYSIS OF ITS EFFICACY Mohammad Ashraful Haque ABSTRACT Performance appraisal plays a crucial role in maintaining a high quality and competitive workforce, but has been ignored so far from the civil service reform agenda in Bangladesh. At present, an Annual Confidential Report (ACR) that was introduced in the Pakistan period and retained with minor modification is used to measure performance. The prevailing gross inefficiency of the Bangladesh Civil Service gives the impression that this appraisal system is poorly functioning. This paper articulates the difficulties in designing a good appraisal system in the public sector and provides a theoretical framework arguing that the ‘goodness’ of a PA system should be seen in its capacity to meet its predetermined objectives instead of counting on the so called infallible psychometric properties. A certain degree of validity, reliability and perceived fairness are essential for an appraisal system to be efficacious. The paper then analyzes historical development of the current ACR of Bangladesh Civil Service and its components to measure its validity, reliability and perceived fairness. The paper found that though the current ACR holds some degree of fairness, it significantly lacks in validity as well as reliability, and therefore is deficient in meeting its stated objectives. Keywords – annual confidential report, efficiency, perceived fairness, psychometrics, reliability...

Performance appraisals are assessment tools that have proven to have advantages to the effectiveness of the work place. The performance appraisal process can be referred to as terms that provoke and propel strong responses; opinions, judgment, and sentiments are expressed in contextual format (Kumar 2005). Scholars have regarded performance appraisals as a strategic and integral part of an organization (Longenecker and Goff 1992). Typically those who administer the performance appraisals are human resource managers/professionals or managers. A tool used in the appraisal process needs to be standardized, reliable, valid, and appropriate for the position; making sure this tool meets all these qualifications is a mere part of the process of administering the appraisal process. Success in a business can be dependent upon an employer’s ability to be proactive with their employees. “Research shows that managers with poor communication or interpersonal skills are often the downfall of a company's otherwise sound performance management program (“Setting up a performance management system”, 1999). Strong communication skills provide comfort and the ability to provide feedback with empathy and remain professional; which are considered very important when communicating...

However formal evaluation of employees is believed to have been adopted for the first time during the First World War at instance of Walter dill Scott, the US army adopted the ‘man to man’ rating system for evaluating military personnel.
