The HR Appraisal Event provides a structured process for conducting employee appraisals, enabling both appraisees and appraisers to assess performance, skills, and competencies. Typically, HR is responsible for setting up and managing the event, ensuring that all relevant participants can engage in the appraisal process. However, in some organizations, managers may also have the authority to create and manage appraisal events, depending on company policies.
