LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1 PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL
Performance Appraisal may be defined as a structured formal interaction between a subordinate
and supervisor, that usually takes the form of a periodic interview (annual or semi-annual), in
which the work performance of the subordinate is examined and discussed, with a view to
identifying weaknesses and strengths as well as opportunities for improvement and skills
development.
A critical factor related to an organizations long-term success is its ability to measure how well
employees perform and then use that information to ensure that performance meets present
standards and improves over time. This process is referred to as performance appraisal or
performance evaluation. It can also be defined as the process by which an employees
contribution to the organization during a specified period of time is assessed. If used effectively,
it can improve employee motivation and performance.
Once the employee has been selected, trained and motivated, he is then appraised for his
performance. Performance Appraisal is the step where the Management finds out how effective it
has been at hiring and placing employees. If any problems are identified, steps are taken to
communicate with the employee and remedy them. Performance Appraisal is a process of
evaluating an employee performance in terms of its requirements. Performance Appraisal can
also be defined as the process of evaluating the performance and qualifications of the employees
in terms of the requirements of the job for which he is employed for purposes of administration
including placement, selection for promotions, providing financial rewards and other actions
which require differential treatment among the members of a group as distinguished from actions
affecting all members equally. Performance appraisal is a formal system that evaluates the
quality of a workers performance.
An appraisal should not be viewed as an end in it self, but rather as an important process within
abroader performance management system that links:
Organizational objective
Day-to-day performance
Professional development
Rewards and incentives

betraced 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 time of the Second World War not more than 60 years ago. Yet in
broader sense, the practice of appraisal is a very ancient art. In the scale of things historical, it
might well lay claim to being the world's second oldest profession!
Appraisal system has been defined by Dulewicz (1989) as a basic human tendency to make
judgments about those one is working with as well as about oneself." Appraisal, it seems, is both
inevitable and universal. In the absence of a carefully structured system of appraisal, people will
tend to judge the work performance of others, including subordinates, naturally, informally and
arbitrarily.
The eminent management expert, McGregor defined the performance appraisal system as the
formal performance appraisal plans are designed primarily to meet the organizational needs and
to provide systematic judgments.
Appraisal also tells the employees as to how they are doing and about the required changes in
their behavior, attitudes, skills or job knowledge, in other words, making the employees aware as
to where they stand in the eyes of superiors. These form the basis for the coaching and
counseling of employees by their bosses.
The human inclination to judge can create serious motivational, ethical and legal problems in the
workplace. Without a structured appraisal system, there is little chance of ensuring that the
judgments made will be lawful, fair, defensible and accurate. Performance appraisal systems
began as simple methods of income justification. That is, appraisal was used to decide whether or
not the salary or wage of an individual employee was justified. The process was firmly linked to
material outcomes. If an employee's performance was found to be less than ideal, a cut in pay
would follow. On the other hand, if their performance was better than the supervisor expected, a
pay rise was in order. Little consideration, if any, was given to the developmental possibilities of
appraisal. If was felt that a cut in pay, or a rise, should provide the only required impetus for an
employee to either improve or continue to perform well. Sometimes this basic system succeeded
in getting the results that were intended; but more often than not, it failed.
For example, early motivational researchers were aware that different people with roughly equal
work abilities could be paid the same money and yet have quite different levels of motivation
and performance. These observations were confirmed in empirical studies. Pay rates were
important, yes; but they were not the only element that had an impact on employee performance.
It was found that other issues, such as morale and self-esteem, could also have a major
influence.As a result, the traditional emphasis on reward outcomes was progressively rejected. In
the 1950sin the United States, the potential usefulness of appraisal as tool for motivation and
6|Page
development was gradually recognized. The general model of performance appraisal, as it is
known today,began from that time.
2.3 360APPRAISAL
360 degree appraisal is an approach to performance appraisal that involves gathering
performance information from people on all sides of the manager above, beside, below and so
forth (De Nisi & Griffen, 2008). This approach allows management to 18 match the strengths
and weaknesses from each perspective and gain a more accurate, rounded view of a persons true
performance (Conway, 1996). Rees and Porter (2003, p.83) define 360 degree appraisal as
aprocess that involves the key people in a persons network of working relationships making
assessments of a persons performance. They subordinate being appraised is then given
structured feedback; this may involve feedback from subordinates and any key outside parties, if
it is practicable.
Some of the subordinates that may give feedback are the immediate manager, other management
in the organization, peers, internal and external customers and suppliers.
360 degree appraisal can be used to reduce the bias of the appraisal process by removing top
down ratings by managers. This is done by replacing them with a multisource assessment
(Grint,1993). However, Prowse and Prowse (2009, p.73) argued that a manager in 360-degree
appraisal collates feedback rather than judges performance and summarizes evaluations and so
the validity of upward appraisal means the removal of subjective appraisal ratings.
Using the 360 degree appraisal technique can mean there will be more negative feedback given,
and this is known to demotivate staff. It is therefore vital that the managers are using the
feedback received from the other raters wisely and ensure it is consistent and unbiased (De
Nisiand Griffen, 2007, Prowse and Prowse, 2009).
De Cenzo and Robbins (2007) feel that appraisers should only rate in those areas in where they
have substantial job knowledge. They should be as close as possible to the organizational level of
7|Page
the employee being evaluated. If the appraiser is not in 19 positions where they can observe the
persons work behavior then there is a greater chance of in accuracies.

specific performance criteria and are well-accepted by both appraiser and appraise (Mustapha &
Daud, p.158). All effective performance appraisals include elements such as linking appraisal to
rewards, the supervisor and employee working together to identify goals, performance goals
clearly defined, feedback given to the appraiser on their effectiveness and compliance with legal
requirements (Rankin & Kleiner, 1988).
9|Page
Constructive Intention
It is very important that employees recognize that negative appraisal feedback is provided with a
constructive intention to help them overcome present difficulties and to improve their future
performance. Employees will be less anxious about criticism, and more likely to find it useful,
when the believes that the appraiser's intentions are helpful and constructive. In contrast , other
studies ( Baron 1988) have reported that destructive criticism which is vague , ill informed,
unfair or harshly presented - will lead to problems such as anger , resentment , tension and
workplace conflict , as well as increased resistance to improvement , denial of problems, and
poorer performance.
Set Performance Goals
It has been shown in numerous studies that goal-setting is an important element in employee
motivation. Goals can stimulate employee effort, focus attention, increase persistence, and
encourage employees to find new and better ways to work. The useful of goals as a stimulus to
human motivation is one of the best supported theories in management (Locher , 1977) .It is also
quite clear that goals which are specific , difficult and accepted by employees will lead to higher
level of performance than easy, vague goals (such as do your best ) or no goals at all
(Harris1914) .
Appraiser Credibility
It is important that the appraiser (usually the employee's supervisor) be well-informed and
credible. Appraisers should feel comfortable with the techniques of appraisal, and should be
knowledgeable about the employees job and performance (Teel,1977). When these condition
sexist, employees are more likely to view the appraisal process as accurate and fair. They also
express more acceptances of the appraisers feedback and a greater willingness to change.
10 | P a g e
The rating scale method offers a high degree of structure for appraisals. Each employee trait or
characteristic is rated on a bipolar scale that usually has several points ranging from "poor"
to"excellent" (or some similar arrangement). The traits assessed on these scales include
employee attributes such as cooperation, communications ability, initiative, punctuality and
technical (work skills) competence. The nature and scope of the traits selected for inclusion is
limited onlyby the imagination of the scales designer, or by the organizations need to know. The
one major provision in selecting traits that they should be in some way relevant to the appraisers
job.The traits selected by some organizations have been unwise and have resulted in legal action
onthe ground of discrimination (Torre, 1996).
2.10 ADVANTAGES
The greatest advantage of rating scales is that they are structured and standardized. This allows
ratings to be easily compared and contrasted - even for entire workforces.
Each employee is subjected to the same basic appraisal process and rating criteria, with the same
range of responses. This encourages equality in treatment for all appraise and imposes standard
measures of performance across all parts of the organization (David, 1993). Rating scale methods
are easy to use and understand. The concept of the rating scale makes obvious sense; both
appraiser and appraise have an intuitive appreciation for the simple and efficient logic of the
bipolar scale. This result is wide spread acceptance and popularity for this approach.
2.11 DISADVANTAGES
Trait Relevance
Are the selected rating-scale trait clearly relevant to the jobs of all appraises? It is inevitable that
with a standardized and fixed system of appraisal that certain traits will have a greater
relevancein some jobs than in others. For example, the trait "initiative" might not be very
important in ajob that is tightly defined and rigidly structured. In such cases, a low appraisal
rating for initiative may not mean that an employee lacks initiative. Rather, it may reflect that
fact that an employee has few opportunities to use and display that particular traits ( Mckellin,
1993) . This relevance of rating scales is therefore said to be context sensitive. Job and work
place circumstances must be taken into account.
Systemic Disadvantage
11 | P a g e
Rating scales, and the traits they purport to measure, generally attempt to encapsulate all the
relevant indicators of employee performance. There is an assumption that all the true and best
indicators of performance are included, and all false and irrelevant indicators are excluded
(Torre, 1996). This is an assumption very difficult to prove in practice. It is possible that an
employees performance may depend on factors that have not been included in the selected traits.
Such employees may end up with rating that do not truly or fairly reflect their effort or value
tothe organization. Employees in this class are systemically disadvantaged by the rating scale
method.
Perceptual Errors
This includes various well-known problems of selective perception (such as the horns and halos
effect) as well as problems of perceived meaning. Selective perception is the human tendency to
make private and highly subjective assessments of what a person is "really like and then seek
evidence to support that view (while ignoring or down playing evidence that might contradict it).
This is a common and normal psychological phenomenon (Torre, 1996). All human beings are
affected by it. In other words, we see in others what we want to see in them. An example is the
supervisor who believes that an employee is inherently good (halo effect) and so ignores
evidence that might suggest otherwise.
Instead of correcting the slackening employee, the supervisor covers for them and may even
offer excuses for their declining performance. On the other hand, a supervisor may have formed
the impression that an employee is bad (horns effect).
The supervisor becomes unreasonably harsh in their assessment of the employee, and always
ready to criticize and undermine those (Sanches, 1996). The horns and halo effect is rarely seenin
its extreme and obvious forms. But in its more subtle manifestation, it can be a significant threat
to the effectiveness and credibility of performance appraisal.
Perceived Meaning
Problems of perceived meaning occur when appraisers do not share the same opinion about the
meaning of the selected traits and the language used on the rating scales. For example, to one
appraiser, an employee may demonstrate the trait of initiative by reporting work problems to a
supervisor. To another appraiser, this might suggest an excessive dependence on supervisory
assistance - and thus a lack of initiative. As well, the language and terms used to construct a
scale as Performance exceeds expectations or below average Skill may mean different
things to different appraisers (De La Torre, 1996).
Rating Errors
The problem here is not so much errors in perception as errors in appraiser judgment and motive.
Unlike perceptual errors, these errors may be (at times deliberate. The most common rating
erroris central tendency. Busy appraisers, or those wary of confrontations and repercussions, may
betempted to dole out too many passive, middle-of-the-road ratings (e.g., "satisfactory"
or"adequate"), regardless of the actual performance of a subordinate. Thus the spread of ratings
12 | P a g e
tends to clump excessively around the middle of the scale (Sanches, 1996). This problem is
worsened in organizations where the appraisers do not feel confident with the task of appraisal.
13 | P a g e
2.15 MAIN PRINCIPLE
The principle behind Management by Objectives (MBO) is to make sure that everybody within
the organization has a clear understanding of the aims, or objectives, of that organization, as well
as awareness of their own roles and responsibilities in achieving those aims. The complete MBO
system is to get managers and empowered employee acting to implement and achieve their plans.

3.1 HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF IBBL
The history of Islamic Banking could be dividing in two parts. First: When it still remained an
idea, second: When it become a reality by private initiative in some countries and by law in
others. There has always been a desire to establish financial institutions to operate as per the tents
of Islamic Shariah. The first attempt in this regard was made in Pakistan during 1950s as a pilot
scheme, but unfortunately it didnt succeed. It was followed by a more successful venture in the
form of a local Bank in Egypt (Myt Gant Savings Bank, July, 1963). In 1969 Islamic Bank was
got up Malaysia through passing an Act in parliament which is being conducted successfully
today. In 1970, King Faisal, The Government of K.S.A, called a meeting to moderate the
banking of Muslim countries in accordance with the loss of Islamic Shariah. In the light of this
purpose, on 18th December 1973 the decision of setting up an international Islamic Bank was
taken up in the finance ministry of O.I.C, which starts its work on 20th October 1975 in Jeddah.
In 1977, Faisal Islamic bank in Sudan, Kuwait Finance Bank House in Kuwait, Faisal Islamic
bank in Egypt and Jordan Islamic Bank in 1978 was founded. In 1977, International Association
of Islamic bank was founded to create equality among the Islamic Banks of different countries.
Islamic Bank Bangladesh Limited was incorporated on 13.03.1983 as a public Company with
Limited liability under the companies Act, 1913. The Bank obtained permission to commence
business from 27.03.1983. Islamic Bank Ltd. Is the first interest free Bank in South-East Asia.
The establishment of this Bank has ushered a new era in Bangladesh, the second largest Muslim
country in the world. The bank is committed to help the people in Halal earnings and Halal
investment. All of its activities are run as per Islamic Shariah. The Islamic Development Bank,
some foreign financial institutions of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, United Arab Emirate and
Jordan also came forward to establish this bank.
The total number of branches of the bank as on 31st December 1988 stood at 27. The Bank has
taken up an optimality expansion program to open a large number of branches during the year
1989 in urban and rural areas and it is expected that with the implementation of the expansion
program almost all important commercial places will come under the operational activities of the
Bank.

5.2 FINDINGS
After my own work experiences as well as discussion with honorable officers I have found in my
52 | P a g e
study that there are several important problems that need to focus on for better performance
appraisal procedures of IBBL. The findings of my study are:-
Its difficult to understand performance appraisal system for some of the employees.
The appraisal system facilitates growth & learning of employees and it moderately
distinguishes performers and non-performers in the organization.
Existing performance appraisal system helps the management to identify potentiality of
the employees.
The performance appraisal system criteria are well communicated with all stakeholders
related with performance appraisal system.
Lack of knowledge about performance appraisal system for lower level employees
No training facilities for ground level employees.
Its difficult to understand performance appraisal system for some of the employees.
Current performance appraisal system practicing in IBBL is complex and complicated
towards many employees.
Modification and clarification of different areas like monetary incentives,standard of
evaluation and a clear appraising procedure is required.
Miss match between employees expectation and current performance appraisal system
practicing in IBBL.
Confusing and conflicting aspect of performance appraisal system creating
miscommunication among management level to various levels of employees.
Majority of the employees are not significantly satisfying about the current performance
appraisal system.
Employees perception about performance appraisal system is very positive in IBBL.

Recommendations and
Conclusions
54 | P a g e
6.1 RECOMMENDATIONS
Though Islami Bank Bangladesh Ltd. (IBBL) is performing well but it has some
crucial areas to improve which are prescribed below:
It is a modern banking era. Each and every commercial bank is properly utilizing technological
innovations. So, IBBL needs to utilize these modern technologies to keep pace with the modern
time. IBBL needs to recruit skilled human resources which can turn the bank ahead. The bank
should offer facilities such as Credit card, Visa card. IBBLs investment processing should
become easier than other conventional banks. IBBL should make its investment schemes more
attractive for availing high-return projects.
55 | P a g e
6.2 CONCLUSIONS
IBBL is trying to develop banking sector through welfare and servicing to the people. Islami
economy and banking are bound together. IBBL has emerged facing the many obstacles yet. This
bank is trying to operate their activities according to Islami Shariah. Islam is a religion for
human welfare as well the social welfare. All the steps of Islam are only for the welfare for
human being.
Interest free banking system is no more a concept. It is now a Reality, a dynamic system,
embodying a set of superior banking mechanism. More than 300 Islamic bank and financial
institutions are operating in different Countries throughout the world with a marked success from
this inception in our country in 1983. IBBL has been operating with real and confidence in
corporation with other conventional banks. Bringing a new concept in such business sector,
which is growing too rapidly in the world, is rally bold step. As a large Islamic commercial bank,
Islamic bank took various steps to create employment and socio-economic development for the
poor through Islamic Shariah as well as to create an overall climate for the introduction of large
scale Islamic banking environment in Bangladesh.
IBBL is trying to develop innovative and technologically advanced products and services that
satisfy their customer needs.
There are many benefits to implementing a regular and systematic performance appraisal system
within an organization. In order to gain the most benefit from performance appraisals it is
recommended that a system is developed in consultation with workers and managers, and clear
links are established between appraisals and valued rewards and outcomes. If resources permit,
information on work performance should be obtained from multiple sources. Performance
appraisals can be a powerful tool for increasing motivation and improving work practice if
conducted in a constructive, open and supportive manner.
To conclude we must say that, Islami bank Bangladesh Limited (IBBL) has immense potential in
Bangladesh. It can play vital role in bringing revolutionary changes in our life with both material
and moral world and in individual and collective level.
