Explanation: judgemental appraisal method is a form of performance appraisal—a systematic, general and periodic process that assesses an job performance and productivity of employees in comparison to certain pre-established criteria and organizational objectives. The judgmental appraisal method is applied when assessing individual employee's job performance and productivity in areas that are difficult to measure. Vast majority of information gathered and delivered using this technique is subjective though there may be some parts that are objective.
