You’ve received your raise pool for the year and it’s not as big as you had hoped. you fear that you won’t be able to provide the kind of raises you think most of your employees deserve. the only problem is that the human resources department requires that performance evaluation scores be aligned with raises. thus, you won’t be able to give your employees high performance scores and low raises, but rather you’ll have to downgrade their performance scores to match their raise amounts. which of the following actions is most likely to you promote a greater sense of fairness among your employees? a. find support for giving lower performance evaluations so as to send a consistent message. b. tell employees the situation and have them each file grievances with the hr department. c. present an accurate performance appraisal and explain why raises are not commensurate with their actual performance. d. tell hr that you won’t participate in performance appraisals this year

The Answer is C.

Explanation:

Why did I choose C? Let's break it down.

1st of all, your aim is to promote a "greater sense of fairness among your employee".

This puts option A out of the box. If the employees are doing good and you try to find support for giving lower evaluations, certainly it will not work and employees will resist this, leading to unnecessary conflicts.

Option B is from my point of view, Silly! You tell them that the company can't pay enough and ask employees to file grievances? Like when did that work out? If this to work, when you file for grievances, the company should magically get cash and able to pay you!

You can go for the Option D and stay away from the whole scenario, yet this is not a solution at all. Isn't it? So we can throw it out of the window too.

Option C is the most logical one, since you carry out the evaluation sincerely and then give your employees a true explanation.
