Abstract

Various studies on local government have revealed that productivity was generally low while this runs contrary to staff performance rating within the same system. This motivated the study to examine the staff perception of the current personnel performance appraisal management, the elusive gap between staff performance rating and the general performance in the Local Government system and to identify the challenges of current open reporting system. The study was descriptive and data obtained from primary and secondary sources. Simple random method was adopted to select the five hundred respondents to who copies of questionnaire were administered, cutting across the sixteen local government of Kwara State. The results of the three hundred and six copies of questionnaire returned were presented in form of tables, the analysis was descriptive using simple percentage. The study found that there was preference for the open reporting system, while the management goal for appraisal was directed to achieving efficiency, that of the employees was largely towards enhancing their chances of getting promoted. It was equally found and post evaluation interview was deficient. The study concludes that the institutional mechanism for managing appraisal was defective, it measured input rather than the contribution to the system at large. It is therefore recommended the institutional mechanism for managing performance appraisal should be re-engineered. The reporting and counter-signing officers must develop higher sense of integrity, fairness and honesty by ensuring that the appraisal correctly reflect staff performances and tied to theoverall objectives of the system.
