Abstract

The present invention provides a method and system for employee performance evaluation and monitoring. The method and system eliminates the need to follow the legacy performance review process. The method and system makes it easy for the employee to get timely/continuous inputs for self improvement. Further, the method and system also eliminates the need of complex and lengthy performance evaluation process at the time of appraisals as the calculated worth or value of employee is available at any given point of time for bonus and rewards/recognition. This also eases up the process of comparing performance of team members as the aggregate calculated value or worth can be uniformly used for comparison which is not possible in case of only textual performance notes.
