As to the perceived reasons for the effective implementation of the system few employees state existence of one to one discussion, self appraisal, strict follow up, etc which are not strong factors. Even if employees were not briefed by the concerned department on the performance appraisal system of the organization, they are already aware of its existence and objective.

Generally the outcome of the research confirmed that the performance appraisal system of support for sustainable development as not effective.
