Abstract
Every organisation aims to carry out the various tasks
that make up its "Work" in the most efficient, effective way
it possibly can and to set up a workable programme through
which it can carry on doing so for as long as it exists.
This is as true for a non-profit organisation as it is for a
profit oriented organisation and this is what "Performance"
in supposed to mean.
For an organisation to perform, however, it must have
available to it all those resources that need to be imputed
into its system to make performance the output. The most
important of these inputs is without doubt the human
resource of the organisation. It is imperative then that
this resource be managed effectively in order to achieve the
best result and a cardinal aspect of this human resource
management is the appraisal of individual and/or group
performance and taking of action appropriate to the results
of such appraisals.
This study shows in brief what performance appraisal is
all about and the various methods used by different
organisation to carry out the process. Its inevitable,
close link with reward systems, particularly promotion, is
highlighted and critically analysed in the light of
literature available on the subject. At the end of the work
detailed recommendations are made for the improvement of the
system as obtainable in a typical Nigerian organisation
which in this case happens to be Afribank Nigeria PLC.
The choice of Afribank Nigeria PLC was dictated
primarily by the need to delimit the study to a manageable
size and thereby carry out an in-depth research. What has
been put down in the following pages is by no means
exhaustive but it is hoped that it would contribute at least
to a better understanding of PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL AND
REWARD SYSTEMS IN NIGERIA particularly as obtainable in
AFRIBANK NIGERIA PLC.
