Abstract:

With almost all organizations worldwide using a performance appraisal system, it continues to be a

subject of importance and interest among human resource specialists. Although it is generally accepted

as a western practice, performance appraisal now features in the management repertoires of

organizations in countries around the world, both developed and developing nations. Yet, despite the

apparent popularity of these systems, there is a dearth of information about their uses and

implementation in non-western environments according to previous studies. This paper therefore, reports

some of the results of a study on performance appraisal in Papua New Guinea, a non-western developing

country.
