Let’s discuss those in details:
1. Ranking Method
In a ranking method system (also called stack ranking), employees
in a particular department are ranked based on their value to the
manager or supervisor. This system is a comparative method for
performance evaluations. The manager will have a list of all
employees and will first choose the most valuable employee and put
that name at the top. Then he or she will choose the least valuable
employee and put that name at the bottom of the list. With the
remaining employees, this process would be repeated.
Advantages of Ranking Method
Employees are ranked according to their performance levels.
It is easier to rank the best and the worst employee.
Limitations of Ranking Method
The “whole man” is compared with another “whole man” in
this method. In practice, it is very difficult to compare
individuals possessing various individual traits.
This method speaks only of the position where an employee
stands in his group. It does not test anything about how much
better or how much worse an employee is when compared to
another employee.
When a large number of employees are working, ranking of
individuals become a difficult issue.
There is no systematic procedure for ranking individuals in the
organization. The ranking system does not eliminate the
possibility of snap judgements.
2. Paired Comparison
The paired comparison method bases evaluations on an employee’s
performance relative to his or her peers in selected job skill
categories. For example, if you have five employees, you would
compare their performance in each category individually, assigning
a plus or a minus to indicate relative strength or weakness, as
illustrated in Table. An employee’s evaluation would be the sum of
their pluses and would be the basis of a relative ranking. This
method is unwieldy for large numbers of employees and suffers
from the vagueness and subjectivity of a graphic ranking system.
