Abstract

The study sought to examine the impact of performance appraisal system (PAS) on staff commitment in tertiary institutions. The study adopted the exploratory research design, using a sample of 138 administrative staff working with tertiary institutions. The study found that management of the institutions does not involve the staff in the design of the appraisal. More so, it was observed that the current performance appraisal practices implemented in the tertiary institutions do not motivate the staff to give off their best towards the achievement of the goals and objectives of the institution because there are no implications on the outcome. In relation to improving PAS in tertiary institutions, it was thus recommended that management should provide feedback to staff on the outcome of the appraisal and also introduce reward system.
