Performance issues in the workplace are common. They can include constant tardiness, too much time at work handling personal matters, mishandling of proprietary information, drug and alcohol problems, non-performance, theft, or conflicts in the workplace. This Modern Human Resource Management - Appraisal and Performance will help you conduct the professional performance appraisal and evaluation activities required in the modern workplace.
This course will first discuss the management of employee performance.

Next, you will study employee assessment procedures and performance evaluation systems.
The first step in designing a performance appraisal process is to determine how often the
appraisals will be given. You will learn that when developing performance appraisal criteria,
it is important to remember that the criteria should be job specific and industry-specific
because general performance criteria are not effective. The course will then discuss a
number of different rating methods, and look into workplace violence and bullying.
