    employee’s excellence in the matters pertaining to his present job and his potential for a
    better job." Performance appraisal is a systematic way of reviewing and assessing the
    performance of an employee during a given period of time and planning for his future.

    It is a powerful tool to calibrate, refine and reward the performance of the employee. It
    helps to analyze his achievements and evaluate his contribution towards the
    achievements of the overall organizational goals.

    By focusing the attention on performance, performance appraisal goes to the heart


    of personnel management and reflects the management's interest in the progress of the
    employees.

    Objectives Of Performance appraisal:

     To review the performance of the employees over a given period of time.

     To help the management in exercising organizational control.

     Helps to strengthen the relationship and communication between superior –


    subordinates and management – employees.
     To diagnose the strengths and weaknesses of the individuals so as to identify the
    training and development needs of the future.

     To provide feedback to the employees regarding their past performance.

     Provide information to assist in the other personal decisions in the organization.

     Provide clarity of the expectations and responsibilities of the functions to be


    performed by the employees.

     To judge the effectiveness of the other human resource functions of the


    organization such as recruitment, selection, training and development.

     To reduce the grievances of the employees.

    Meaning of hcn

    A host-country national (HCN) is an employee who is a citizen of a country in which an organization's


    branch or plant is located, but the organization is headquartered in another country. An impediment to
    hiring HCNs is that such employees may not understand the parent company’s culture. To deal with
    this issue, companies may base hiring decisions on certain criteria that serve to increase identification
    with the company and its values.

    Many countries have national localization policies that require firms to hire locals rather than
    international employees when at all feasible. Some of the legal issues that arise in connection with
    employment of HCNs include determining which country's labor laws and tax laws are applicable.
