Activity 2B
As electronic HRIS is used by the performance management system of the organization, the data of employee improvement can be scrutinized by the manager. The manager noticed that an employee was incapable of coping up with the policies and procedures of the company. The manager provided him with guidelines and ways to improve and learn. The employee fails. The employee, as by the dispute resolution process of the company, was asked to come for counseling. When attended, the manager empathetically narrated the problem the employee was facing. The manager also wanted to know the problems faced by the employee and the reason behind in capability. It was not helpful, and the employee has to be terminated.
Issues faced by the manager:
Management and leadership commitment.
Poor performance.
The counseling process was not successful, and the employee didn’t understand where he was incapable and how it can be improved. The employee was not ready to change his way of working.
The experience that the manager learned from the above experience is that the recruitment policies need to be more strict and proper identification of skilled employees are to made through the detailed interview. A method of appropriate evaluation is needed to apply while recruiting.
Activity 3A:
The companies use performance management systems once a year to evaluate the improvements of the employees. This is done through performance appraisal software. The process includes a 360-degree feedback process and feedback from the manager. Every employee is given suggestions or is provided with training so that they can improve their skills. But the reward of the improvement is often paid in incentives, or the salary of the employee is increased. This should not be the way. The management should go through a detailed evaluation process to identify the needs or requirements of the employee, organization, and market. This way the strength and weakness of the organization can be evaluated as well and a clear map can chalk out to meet te aim. This way the whole organization can improve and would provide a better solution for the employee’s improvement.
When the feedback obtained is used to address the ways to improve the performance and abilities of the employees, the system starts working for the development of the management system. The feedback must be conducted every month to see if the skills of the employees have improved and are meeting the company objectives.
Activity 3B
The workplace can be full of diversity. Recruiting people with disability and making them work with others the same is needs a proper procedure so that the sentiments of the person is not hurt in the performance evaluation. A disabled person is always concerned or conscious that the person is different from others. in this case the organization must apply a process to evaluate all its employees uniformly. A disabled person needs extra care or supervision to carry out work. So the person should be supported with proper training and must be encouraged in teamwork. The other employees must be informed that the together needs to work for its growth and development. This way a positive work environment would prevail. Company policies must be secure that it never makes anyone able to discriminate a person on their disability. If the disabled person is incapable of meeting with company needs, he must be informed and explained so that the person can develop.

The employees must be supervised and evaluated so that their improvement can be tracked. The employees who need more traini9ng must be provided with that. The organization also must keep a monthly feedback process to see the development of the company and its employees as well.
- KPI to design for the line managers to develop performance management process are:
Track the participation of the employees in group discussion. If one or some employees fail to meet the discussions, they must be asked for reviewing it.

Increasing the feedback manager would help to get a diverse view of the problems arising and can be work towards to sort it out.
The quality of the feedback must be improved through performance management software. All employees must participate so that they learn to give proper feedback and encourage improvement.
Performance measurement is required to be adjusted according to the time an employee spends at work. The working hours of an employee should also be taken into consideration to develop organizational time frames and processes for formal management sessions. This time frame could be once or twice each month. To ensure that performance-management processes are flexible enough to cover the range of the organization’s employment situations, certain guidelines are to be provided to the employees so that it helps them to improve their skills. It would also help to understand the areas they need guidance or improvement.

No employee should be served with injustice in their workplace, so the administrators of the organization need to mediate between the line manager and employees if needed.
- It is important to terminate an employee if he fails to meet the objectives and policies of the company because the person cannot improve his skills or learn new ways to do things. Even if provided with guidance, the ways of working not changes, the person is malicious for the company and its values. With a failed person, the company cannot accomplish the goals it has set. An organization always need ti to improve and so should its employees.
