Revamp staff appraisal system


I REFER to the report “Hot-tempered man attacks supervisor over appraisal” (The Star, Nov 18). While I do not condone violence, and disagree with his behaviour, I believe that this annual work target appraisal system or sasaran kerja tahunan (SKT) needs a total revamp.

The system is meant to evaluate and appraise the performance of government servants and is done by two of their superiors. However, this system can be (and has already been) abused in many ways.
