|
Relative Percentile method |
considered to be most valid of relative rating systems, it involves comparing indivudals on job performance dimensions and assigning a rating of between 1 to 101 with the average being 50 thereby producing a distribution around the mean that may or may not be normal |
|
Contingency Management |
based on the behaviourist notion that perfomance is determined by its consquences; and that unsatisfactory behaviour / performance will only improve once the reward for poor behaviours are removed and postive consequences are developed for satisfactory behaviour "could the employee preform satisfactorily if his her life depended on it" |
