Performance Appraisal and Job Analysis
4)We recognize that appraisal will be effective only if the feedback given does not come
as a surprise at the end of the year. Round the year communication and feedback
between an employee and his / her supervisor are essential.
5)We have identified 10 generic managerial competencies as most relevant and critical
for a successful career in SPCL, after considerable discussions internally. In order to
help the employees be aware of these competencies and also to help them imbibe
these on a continuous basis, these have been incorporated into the appraisal form for
annual review and feedback.
Procedure :
Performance appraisal is an annual event which takes place soon after the end of the
financial year. The appraisee first goes through the process of Self Appraisal. The
appraisee is expected to reflect on the performance period gone by and write down his /
her major achievements. He / she should also give himself / herself a rating as per the
rating pattern described in the form.
In the following step, both the appraiser and the appraiser should engage in a focused
discussion wherein they concentrate not just on the appraiser's performance in the past
year but also set targets (KRAs) for the current year. Discussions between the
appraisee and his / her appraiser should highlight achievements and shortfalls, against
the set KRAs of the past year. Developmental areas for the appraiser should be
identified and the appraiser should be given opportunities by way of training etc, to work
towards improvement in the ensuing year.
Employees in Technical / Administrative support roles will use the two-page form. All
employees in grade ‘N’ and those in ‘S’ who are primarily performing a support role will
have to fill-up form. Other employees in ‘S’ and those in grades ‘E’ & ‘C’ will use the
form.
The appraiser can give his / her recommendations for salary revision, rationalization
and final rating. The appraiser will not make any verbal commitments to the appraisee.
All decisions related to salary revision, and promotions will be implemented by HR in
consultation with the Business Head.
In case, there are sharp differences of opinion about one’s appraisal, the appraiser may
arrange a meeting between the appraiser, the appraiser and the reviewer to try and
resolve the difference. In such a situation the reviewer’s decision will be final and
binding.
Increments will be awarded to employees only if the appraisal form is duly completed
and signed by the Appraiser, HOD & Regional Head concerned. Revision letters once
finalized and announced will not be changed.

Rating Pattern
The company follows the following 4-scale performance rating pattern:
Rating Distribution
We follow the normal distribution (bell curve) approach for the purpose of rating
distribution. This approach is based on the finding in social sciences that most human
phenomena tend to distribute along a bell shaped curve (normal distribution). This helps
in identifying and differentiating between high and low performing employees.
As an overall guideline, we have set the following percentage limit for the different
ratings
A++ - Not exceeding 15% of the population.
A+ - Not exceeding 50% of the population.
A - Not less than 25% of the population.
B - Not less than 10% of the population.
