The current research investigates employees’ perceptions about the outcomes of performance appraisal and aims to identify the factors which can harm the successful implementation of performance appraisal. The sample of 20 employees at managerial level was selected on the basis of simple random sampling technique from the rutile grade Titanium dioxide pigment organizations located in the Kerela. The findings suggest that the employees are aware of the useful outcomes of the performance appraisal but they lack knowledge in implementing an effective performance appraisal system. A significant difference in perceptions regarding the outcomes of performance appraisal was found among the respondents. The study will help policy makers in designing effective performance management systems for their organizations by minimizing the perceived risks and detriments to effective implementation of performance management systems.
