Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A performance appraisal instrument assesses an employee's ability to perform their job, which would be relevant in a situation where an employee is being terminated due to their inability to perform their duties. A violation of company rules or employment-at-will would likely not require the use of a performance appraisal instrument. A layoff may be based on factors beyond an employee's performance and may not necessarily call for the use of a performance appraisal instrument.
