Communication:
The management provides informal feedback of evaluation only at the final stage. As such, no structured method is adopted. Supervisor is the direct interface and his/her office takes care of other information. Organisational health surveys are conducted to gauge the employee's perception.
Reward and compensation are directly linked to performance. The utility may use some of the following measures for motivating its employee:
- Performance Bonus
- Profit Sharing
