Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE

Answer to Question 2

Answer: An employee's immediate supervisor has traditionally been the most logical choice for evaluating performance, and this continues to be the case. The supervisor is usually in an excellent position to observe the employee's job performance, and the supervisor has the responsibility for managing a particular unit. When someone else has the task of evaluating subordinates, the supervisor's authority may be undermined. Also, subordinate T&D is an important element in every manager's job, and as previously mentioned, appraisal programs and employee development are usually closely related. On the negative side, the immediate supervisor may emphasize certain aspects of employee performance and neglect others. Also managers have been known to manipulate evaluations to justify pay increases and promotions and vice versa. In most instances, the immediate supervisor will probably continue to be involved in evaluating performance. Organizations will seek alternatives, however, because of technological advances and a desire to broaden the perspective of the appraisal.
