Answer 1

B - Use mostly peer input when writing the employee's performance appraisal.

Step-by-step explanation:

The appraisal of the employees should be documented. the employees should be analyzed based on their performance against the set standards. The employees should not be appraised on a few days performance, they should be appraised based on their entire time period performance. The appraisal should be communicated to the employees in a private meeting so they do not feel demotivated.
