Performance appraisal usually includes setting goals, giving feedback, and assigning a final rating. This process helps decide promotions, salary increments, or improvement plans. Many companies have moved from yearly performance appraisals to more regular, continuous feedback systems. Most performance appraisal work is now managed using digital PMS tools instead of paper forms.

Definitions are general guidance. Your organisation's policies and applicable local requirements determine how a term is used in practice.
