________ of an employee is the process of evaluating the employee performance of the job in terms of the requirements of the job.

This question was previously asked in
UGC NET 2014 Paper 1 Question Paper (28-Dec-2014)
The correct answer is

Performance Appraisal

The key to this question is noticing what is being evaluated: the employee's performance, judged against the requirements of the job.

That process is performance appraisal. Performance appraisal is the systematic assessment of how well an individual is carrying out the duties of the post, measured against the standards and requirements the job sets. It looks at the person's actual output and conduct on the job and is used for feedback, development, promotion and reward decisions.

The important contrast is with job evaluation, which assesses the job rather than the person: it establishes the relative worth of different jobs in the organisation in order to fix pay differentials, and it takes no account of who occupies the post. Job analysis is a still earlier step, the systematic study of a job to determine its duties and the qualities required, producing the job description and job specification. Merit rating is an older term for the appraisal of employees, but in this classification performance appraisal is the accepted and broader term for evaluating performance against job requirements.

Hence the process described is performance appraisal.
