Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Studies have shown that employees tend to rate themselves higher than their actual performance, leading to inflated self-assessments. While self-appraisals can provide valuable insight into an employee's perception of their own performance, they should not be relied upon as the sole source of information for performance appraisals or administrative decisions. Additionally, self-appraisals are not necessary for a 360-degree performance appraisal, as other sources such as peer feedback and customer evaluations can also be used.
