King Abdullah Medical City (KAMC) is one of the leading hospital complex in Saudi Arabia which operates under Ministry of Health and is aimed to provide multiple medical and surgical care services to patients. Hospital operates with both temporary and permanent staff members and it is in greater need of developing an evaluation process for assessing performance of its temporary and part time employees. The evaluation process will allow to document the performance of part time staff, such that work quality of health care services can be improved and desired care can be offered to patients.
Benefits of Performance Evaluation
King Abdullah Medical City is expected to gain several benefits from employee evaluation programs, which are both short term as well as long term.
Challenges of performance evaluation
Although, there are several benefits of performance evaluation process, yet it could have numerous associated challenges as well, which are needed to be managed well by KAMC in order to assure its effectiveness. The following challenges are considerable;
No prior experience with performance evaluation of temporary employees: KAMC is first time user of performance evaluation for part time employees and thus it requires careful consideration for devising most suitable mechanism to assess performance of part time employees. The lack of motivation for part time employees to participate in evaluation process might lead to adverse consequences (Gruman & Saks, 2011).
Expected Resistance from Employees: The management of KAMC needs to consider that there could be substantial resistance from part time employees on implementation of evaluation process. For instance, the employees might consider it as negative scrutiny of their activities or might view it as threat to their working with KAMC (Murphy & Deckert, 2013). The key to overcome this challenge is to explain the key benefits of evaluation system prior to its implementation.
