Appraisals overview

An appraisal is a performance measurement tool. It provides managers and employees a way to measure skills and accomplishments in an accurate and uniform way. Performance appraisals are often used to help employees evaluate their work progress. Promotions, bonuses, and training needs are often based on information in an appraisal.
