Quantitative surveys are utilized to assess employees’ perceptions of various dimensions of the performance appraisal process, including fairness, transparency, feedback effectiveness, alignment with organizational goals, motivation, and job satisfaction. A structured questionnaire is administered to a representative sample of employees across different departments and levels within Vocation Investments and Securities. Statistical analyses, such as descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and regression analysis, are employed to identify patterns, trends, and relationships in the data.
