In which evaluation method are attributes of an employee measured on a scale from 1 to 10?

The graphic rating scale is a performance evaluation method where attributes of an employee, such as quality of work, attendance, and teamwork, are assessed using a numeric scale, typically ranging from 1 to 10. This method provides a straightforward way for evaluators to quantify employee performance on different dimensions, allowing for a clear comparison across several attributes.

Using a numeric scale helps in standardizing evaluations, making it easier to interpret the results. Additionally, it enables managers to quickly identify areas where employees excel as well as areas needing improvement. This tool is widely used because of its simplicity and ease of use, allowing managers to provide both a general overview and detailed feedback effectively.

In contrast, other methods like managed by objectives focus more on meeting specific goals set jointly between managers and employees; behaviorally anchored rating scales combine qualitative and quantitative measures by linking behavioral descriptions with numeric ratings, while classification procedures typically categorize employees into predefined groups rather than using a continuous scale.
