Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Jaime is encouraged to rate his subordinates based on pre-established criteria and standards, which is the essence of absolute appraisals. In relative appraisals, employees are compared with each other, and in outcome appraisals, the focus is on the results achieved by employees rather than their behaviors or competencies. BARS (Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scales) are a specific type of appraisal method that incorporate both absolute and relative elements.
