*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
ACCA F5 or the study of performance management is the process of involving the employees in the organizational decision to improve their performance and increase the company�s effectiveness in achieving its goals.

Employee performance management in ACCA F5 includes:

Planning

The success in an organization is achieved through planning in advance. Planning is the involvement of individuals in the achievement of the organizational goals. Employees who are involved in the process will understand the main objective of the business better,increasing the chance for them to contribute to its success. Performance elements should also be established and these standards should be understandable, measurable, equitable, verifiable and achievable. It should also be flexible to allow adjustment period when changes are implemented by the company.

Monitoring

Monitoring is the act of measuring performance and providing feedback to the management and employees. Monitoring performance includes employee reviews, which compares their performance to a set of standards. Ongoing monitoring process will enable the management to check employee performance and to allow changes if the standard is proven to be unrealistic. By continually monitoring the employees, unacceptable performance can be addressed sooner rather than waiting for the end of the period where the report is finalized.

Developing

In ACCA F5, it is important to address the developmental needs of the employees. A company that takes care of their employees increase the chance of improving their productivity and effectiveness. The development might include trainings which improve job-related skills or help the employees adjust to change and the introduction of new technology.

Rating

It is helpful in ACCA F5 to rate the performance of employees from time to time. The company needs to know who their best employees are. The rating can also be the basis for other personnel actions such as pay increase, promotion, demotion or the reduction in force.

Rewarding

An organization that can recognize excellent performance should be effective in using these rewards to boost their employee�s morale. However, negative reward or punishments are also necessary in maintaining control and order in the organization. Rewarding can both be formal and informal. Recognition of performance need not be shown in a plaque, a simple tap on the back is sometimes enough to show approval for a certain action.
