Fiscal Year
RBL Business in last 5 years:
Business activities:
The Rahimafrooz batteries limited produce two major types of batteries:
Automotive Battery:
Automotive batteries are use for vehicles like car, bus, truck, motor cycle etc. The auto batteries
are marketed by Auto marketing department. Auto batteries are exported to many countries like
United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Singapore, Sri lanka, Nepal,
Bhutan, India, Burundi, Angola, Ethiopia, Nigeria. Rahimafrooz Batteries Ltd produces more
than 300 types of automobile batteries.
The automotive battery industry is very much related to the automotive industry itself. Being a
third world country, the usage of automotives in Bangladesh is very low. Previously, car
batteries were imported from abroad. However, in 1959 Rahimafrooz pioneered in this industry
in our country. With a low cost solution, they started taking over the market. Over the years, the
usage of automotives grew as well as Rahimafrooz market share. Their Lucas brand became
extremely popular and people would buy only Lucas when it came to car battery.
12
Industrial Battery:
Industrial batteries are basically used for electronic vehicles, instant power system/inverter,
uninterrupted power supply, instrument & medical equipment, railway signaling and
telecommunication etc.
These types of batteries sometimes called "fork lift", "traction" or "stationary" batteries, are used
where power is needed over a longer period of time, and are designed to be "deep cycled", or
discharged down as low as 20% of full charge (80% DOD, or Depth of Discharge). These are
often called traction batteries because of their widespread use in forklifts, golf carts, and floor
sweepers (from which we get the "GC" and "FS" series of battery sizes). Deep cycle batteries
have much thicker plates than automotive batteries.
Feature and Products :
Rahimafrooz Batteries Ltd producing nine types of batteries, those are –

Introduction to the study
Introduction of the topic:
Our topic was to determine ‘The Performance appraisal system’ implanted by Rahimafrooz
batteries limited’s HRM department. This function monitors employee performance to ensure
that it is at acceptable levels. Human resource professionals are usually responsible for
developing and administering performance appraisal systems, although the actual appraisal of
employee performance is the responsibility of supervisors and managers. Besides providing a
basis for pay, promotion, and disciplinary action, performance appraisal information is essential
for employee development since knowledge of results (feedback) is necessary to motivate and
guide performance improvements.
The Cause of the topic was chosen:
• To provide an exposure of performance appraisal system of corporate world and to
facilitate an opportunity to implement theoretical knowledge in real corporate situations.
• To make a bridge between the theories and practices on real corporate world.
• To identify and describe the performance management activities in RBL.
• The topic is one of the interesting one among all other topics of HRM subject matter.
• Study and analyze how RBL implement their performance management policies.
14
Scope of the Study
The report covers one of the HR functions – ‘Performance appraisal system’. Periodic
programs and annual events performed by the HR department of Rahimafrooz Batteries Limited.
We have had an opportunity to gather experience by surveying the HR department of RBL,
which has added an important learning about the HR activities are actually performed and
coordinated. The area of concentration of this report is to identify Performance appraisal system
in RBL. As this reason the report covers one of the essential HR function in RBL such as
Performance appraisal system.
This report attempts to provide any suggestion regarding the daily HR functions of Rahimafrooz
Batteries Ltd., rather it only describe the observation of the HR department activities on
Performance appraisal system of RBL.

Methodology
Sources of information:
To prepare the report both primary and secondary data and information were needed. Primary
data collected over interview along with the survey of the end user. Secondary data were
collected from different reports, various books and notes etc. The information needed for
completion of the report was collected in a systematic manner from both primary and secondary
sources.
1. Primary:
We uses the data for our term paper as we go to the company and take interview of the manager
and employees and asked them relevant question about the Performance appraisal system. We
prepared set of question and asked them to fill it up. Discuss with the people of management too.
2. Secondary:
We searched their web site and take many aspects and information from that. Different
publications regarding HR activities, Different books and notes, Rahimarooz website, Aajker
Rahimafrooz - a periodic brushier.
Research approach
We prepare our project report based on the survey in the company for our term paper. We went
to the company and asked relevant question to the manager and employees and collected the
data. We also researched the web site of the company.
16
Research tools Questionnaire:
For collecting data we use a set of relevant question to ask the manager and employees to fill it
up. The questionnaire was both MCQ & Yes/No type.
Mechanical tools:
For our report we use computer and software Microsoft word, Acrobat Reader and the internet
for browsing for information.
Sampling plan:
Sample unit:
We focus on middle level employees mainly for our survey; we choose a sample of 10 employee
of RBL for doing our survey.
Sample size:
We take a sample size of 10 for our data collection process through interview.
Sampling procedure:
We use the random procedure for selecting the group of worker.
Contact method:
Personal interview:
17
We mainly base on personal interview as contact method for collecting data for our term paper.
We gave the questionnaire and ask to fill it up.
Limitations
There are vast amounts of information and write-ups relating to the topics of this research, that
are present in the internet and various other sources, but it was not possible to gain access to
many such information. So missing out some important aspect of the discussed topics can be a
possibility. The major limitations include-
• It is very though to gather all the required information in such a short period.
• Barriers in disclosing actual data from some of the persons.
• Large-scale research was not possible due to time constraints.
• Organizational problem of disclosing some sensitive data and information for obvious
reasons posed an obstacle to the practical orientation
• The questionnaire used to collect data not cover all the information needed to prepare the
report as a result discussion or consultation with the employee needed to collect that sort
of information and which become much harder because the employee busy with in their
regular job.

Analysis and Discussion
Theory related to the topic
Meaning of performance Appraisal:
Once the employee has been selected, trained & motivated. , He is then appraised for his
performance. Performance appraisal is the step where the management finds out how
effective it has been at hiring and placing employees. If any problems are identified steps are
taken to communicate with the employees & to remedy them.
Performance appraisal is defined “as a process of evaluating the performance of a job in terms of
its requirement.”
According to Heyel “ It is process of evaluating the performance & qualifications of the
employees in terms of requirement of the job for which he is employed for purposes of
administration including placement, selection for promotions providing financial rewards &
other actions which require differential treatment among the members of the group as
distinguished from actions affecting all members equally.
“Process of estimating or judging the value, excellence, qualities or status of some object, person
or thing.”
The Evaluation Process:
The process of performance appraisal follows a set pattern, which is periodically appraised by
his superiors. The process of evaluation begins with establishment of performance standards .At
the time of designing a job & formulating a job description performance standards are usually
developed for the position. These standards set should not be vague but should be clear.
19
The next thing is that these standards should be communicated to the employees for the
employees left to them & for making communication effective feedback is necessary
from the subordinate to the manager.
The third step is measurement of the performance, to determine the actual performance is that, it
is necessary to acquire information about it .The sources used for measuring the performance can
be through personal observation, statistical reports etc .The fourth step is the comparison of the
actual performance with the standards. The next step is the results of are discussed periodically
with the employees, where plus points & weak points are discussed .The final step is initiation of
corrective action where necessary.
20
Measure actual performance
Compare actual performance with standards
Discuss the appraisal with employee
If necessary, initiate corrective action
Communicate performance expectations to employees
Establish performance standards
Importance of Performance Appraisal:
• Performance appraisal provides systematic judgment to back up salary increases,
transfers, demotion or terminations.
• They are means of telling subordinates how he is doing & suggesting needed changes in
the behavior attitudes, skills, and job knowledge. They let him know where he stands
with the boss.
• The superior uses them as a base for coaching & counseling the individual.
• It provides adequate feedback to each individual for his or her performance.
• It plays a vital role in identifying training & development needs & to evaluate the
effectiveness of training & development programmes.
Methods of Performance Appraisal:
The various methods and techniques used for Performance appraisal can be categorized as the
following traditional and modern methods:
21
Traditional methods:
Straight Ranking Method : It is oldest & simplest method of performance appraisal by
which the man & his performance is considered as entity by the rater .The whole man is
compared to with the whole man .The relative position of each man is tested in terms of
his numerical rank .It may also be done by ranking a person on his job performance
against that of another member of competitive group placing him as number
Paired Comparison Method: In this each employee is compared every trait all other
persons in pairs one at a time .In this judgments is simpler than the ordinary ranking
method.
Man-to-Man Comparison Method : This technique was used by the USA army during
the First World War. In this method certain factors are selected for the purpose of
analysis (such as leadership, dependability & imitative) the scale of man is also created
for each selector.

Modern Method
Management by Objectives (MBOAssessment Center method360 degree performance appraisalHuman Asset Accounting methodBehaviorally Anchored Rating Scales
22
Grading Method : In this method the rater considers certain features & marks the
carefully according to a scale. They select the features like analytical ability,
cooperativeness, dependability, self-expression, job knowledge, judgment, leadership &
organizing ability etc.
Graphic Method: This is the most commonly used method of performance Appraisal
.In it one of the each person is rated on a continuous scale. These factors are employee
characteristics & employee contribution which includes qualities such as initiative,
leadership, cooperativeness, dependability, industry, attitude
Forced Choice Description method : in this ranking method it attempts to correct a
rater’s tendency to give consistently high or consistently low ratings to all the employees.
This method uses objective reporting & minimum subjective ratings.
Free Essay Method: Under this supervisor make s a free form, open ended appraisal of
an employee in his own words & puts down his impression about the employee .He take
into account of these factors like relationship with fellow supervisors, job knowledge &
potential, employee characteristics & attitudes, physical conditions, development needs
for future.
Modern Methods of PA: The modern approach to performance development has made the
performance appraisal process more formal and structured. Now, the performance appraisal is
taken as a tool to identify better performing employees from others, employees’ training needs,
career development paths, rewards and bonuses and their promotions to the next levels. Modern
Method as follows:
Assessment Center method : The assessment center concept was initially applied to
military situations in the Germany army in the 1930 .The purpose of this method was
and is to test candidates in a social situations using a number of assessors & a variety of
procedures. The most important feature of the assessment centre is job related
23
simulations. These simulations involve characteristics that managers feel are important to
the job success. The evaluators observe & evaluate participants as they perform activities
commonly found in these higher levels of jobs.
Human Asset Accounting method: The human asset accounting method refers to
activity devoted to attaching money estimates to the value of a firm’s internal human
organization & its external customer goodwill .If a well-trained employee leaves a firm
the human organization is worthless& if they join the company the human assets are
increased.
Management by Objectives (MBO) : It is potentially a powerful philosophy of
managing and an effective way of operational sing the evaluation process. It is defined as
“ a process whereby the superior & subordinates managers of an organization jointly
identify its common goals, define each individuals major areas responsibility in terms of
results expected of him & use these measures as guides for operating the unit & assessing
the contributions of each of its members.
360 degree performance appraisal: The appraisal may be any person who has thorough
knowledge about the job done by contents to be appraised, standards of contents & who
observes the employee while performing a job .He should asses the performance without
bias . The appraiser are supervisors, peers, subordinates employees themselves users of
service. Performance appraisal by all the parties is called 360-degree appraisal.
24
Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scales : This a new appraisal technique which has been
recently developed .It provides better results as compare to other techniques .The BARS
is usually consist of five steps.
Generate critical incidents: Person: with knowledge of the job to be appraised are
asked to describe specific illustrations of effective performance behavior.
Develop performance Dimensions: These people then cluster the incidents into
small set of performance dimensions. Each cluster must be defined.
Reallocate Incidents: Any group of people who also the job then reallocates the
original critical incidents. They are given clusters definition’s & critical& asked to
redefine each incident to the dimension
Scale of Incidents: The second group is generally asked to rate the behavior
described in the incident as to how effectively or ineffectively it represents
performance on the appropriate dimensions.
Develop Final Instrument: Subsets of incidents are used as behavior anchors for the
performance dimensions.
25
Compare the theory with organization
The organization makes formal performance appraisal program every quarterly and half-yearly.
The employees’ immediate boss evaluates employee performance. The employee also self rates
his performance and get 360 degree feedback. The organization used behaviorally anchored
rating scale, simple rating, critical incident appraisal and management by objective (MBO)
method for performance evaluation. This performance appraisal served as promotion, annual
performance bonus, increments and training. Seniority, efficiency, loyalty, seniority and
efficiency, seniority and performance are the bases of promotion used in this organization.
Career counseling program are held in this organization. Senior members of this organization
play mentoring role to guide juniors in building their career. Staff briefing, magazines &
newsletter, the suggestion program and presentation is a communication method used in this
organization. They think communication is a bridge to have success.

Major findings
We would like to share the following Findings that we have discovered after analyzing of our
survey
We know Human resource management is necessary for every organization in not only in this but every sector it is an important part. RBL should have a yearly planning for the needed –
RBL is not totally careful about ensuring the performance appraisal.
There is many bureaucracy of employees’ performance appraisal.
There are many credible measures of performance for that employee sometimes does not
understand.
31
Sometimes employees not accept for the critical systems of performance appraisal
RBL some time don’t Measure employee accomplishments.
They don’t using both qualitative and quantitative measures.
Some time supervisors don’t get the information that needed in order to monitor the
performance.
Monitoring procedure of performance appraisal.
Promotions, annual performance bonus, training, increments by performance appraisal.
The main problem what we see that is, the performance appraisal system isn’t very
important for the department because the employees are limited in the HR department of
RBL
Recommendation / suggestion
Solution of the problems:
In RBL, performance appraisal is very essential. Performance appraisal must done carefully.
RBL must ensure, there is no bureaucracy of each employee’s performance appraisal.
RBL should implant credible measures of performance that employees understand well.
RBL make there performance appraisal system as efficient though employees allways
accept it for achieving high-level performance.
RBL should introduce some aspects what measures accomplishments employees.
RBL should use both qualitative and quantitative measures for performance appraisal.
32
RBL should provide the necessary information that supervisors and employees need in
order to monitor performance.
Monitoring procedure of performance appraisal should be more effective.
Promotions, annual performance bonus, training, increments by performance appraisal
should be implemented more carefully.
The main problem what we see that is, the performance appraisal system isn’t very
important for the department because the employees are limited in the HR department of
RBL so this trend should be change for thinking about future work force diversity.
Conclusion
From the above information of the performance appraisal implemented by RBL, We can say that
some of the performance appraisal aspects are same as we learned in our BBA programme, but
in real life situation of Human Resource Management, not every thing resembles with the
bookish theory and concepts. Some of the concepts are theory based and some are more practical
in nature, which can be learned through practical experience only.
Materials, People, systems, tools, knowledge, management, equipment, processes, skill and
attitudes all are input for any king of production cycle in an organization.

To increase productivity, growth and progress, effective and dynamic performance appraisal
system of HRM practice and policies needs procedures that are essential. A quality of HRM
practice and polices is the beginning of better performance. For that reason performance
appraisal system is most important among other practices of HRM. All organization needs a
strong team to accomplish their goals and objectives. Without proper performance appraisal
system it is too tough to build up dynamic working group and successive atmosphere for all
tasks. We suggest to RBL take necessary steps to develop the performance appraisal system of
HR Department with more enthusiastic manner.
At last, I want to say in a organization the performance appraisal system is very important.
Without this system one organization can never go ahead. So every organization have to follow this
performance appraisal system practices otherwise the organization cannot successes.
