Employee Appraisals & Grading
Run fair, transparent, and consistent performance evaluations across your workforce. HROPAL’s Appraisals & Grading System helps managers rate employee performance using structured scoring models and grading rules, while HR can moderate and calibrate results to ensure alignment across the organization.
HROPAL provides a structured and standardized approach for evaluating employee performance across cycles. The system supports multiple appraisal components including goals, KPIs, competencies, achievements, and behavior-based assessments which combine to produce a final rating or grade.
Managers review employee submissions, provide comments, assign ratings, and submit evaluations through clear workflows. HR teams can moderate scores, run calibration panels, and finalize grades to ensure fairness across teams and departments.
