skknchat@gmail.com Based on the performance evaluation results, quarterly, the company asked each department to select outstanding candidates to reward and encourage The company recorded a list of excellent employees, as a basis to create a list of source staff for the company The company needs to apply a combination of solutions, implemented continuously and regularly to motivate them to make efforts in their work and improve their performance The company also needs to pay special attention to young employees so that they can be assured to work and devote themselves to the company 3.2.4 Increasing recognition of employees’ achievements One of the factors affecting the performance evaluation system at the Company is both the employee and the employer Thus, the company needs to implement some good solutions as follows: - Focusing on propagating and disseminating to all employees in the company about the work performance evaluation system and evaluation process: Currently at Aviva Vietnam, after performing the assessment, the employees only know the general results of the evaluation of their performance but they are not clear about the evaluation of the manager and the management of the company to know their own advantages and disadvantages for more improving Therefore, firstly, for the Company's performance evaluation system to be optimal, the employees and the company must really understand the job performance evaluation system - Openly and transparently the systems of criteria for evaluating work performance, establishing a system of performance evaluation to ensure objectivity and fairness From there, employees will be very confident and participate in the performance evaluation of the Company - Investing in building and implementing evaluation software to perform work through the quantification of evaluation criteria Performance evaluation software that can be built and put on the intranet would be a useful solution The HR department will be in charge of relevant guidance documents such as evaluation forms, work performance standards, assessment guidance documents as well as how to use the software and how to handle it Data processing evaluation results will be pushed to the intranet and decentralized to the departments and each member has the right to view and download, etc Before each evaluation period, HR department should inform all departments of the Company about the assessment plan and all members can access and take the initiative This helps to improve the transparency, fairness and 78 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com proactive in assessing work performance, helping the processing and notification of evaluation results quickly and accurately - Creating conditions for all employees to participate in the performance evaluation process The company needs to create conditions for both managers and employees to participate in the process of developing the criteria, standards, and evaluation process to perform the work This not only enhances the integrity of the performance evaluation system, but also helps managers and employees to better understand their own tasks - Effective use of assessment results in human resource management activities: The results of the assessment should be used in the decision to pay, reward and raise wages, to help employees understand the relationship between the performance of work and salaries, bonuses and this is a criterion to consider a raise Since then, employees have realized the importance of company leadership attaching importance to the actual working capacity of each employee attached to the performance of the job - It is necessary to use the evaluation results in human resource training and development: Based on the performance evaluation, finding out the cause of the human resources in the company not fulfilling its tasks (due to limitations) about qualifications or because the assigned norms are too high compared to the current level) so that the knowledge and skills of human resources can be identified and training needs will be determined and use them in layout and arrangement of employees in the appropriate manner for promotion - Using the performance evaluation results in the arrangement and use of human resources: For employees who always perform well in a long time, the Company must show respect and appreciation for their capabilities by giving them higher duties, expanding their work, assigning a number of challenging jobs to give human resources the opportunity to develop After a period of assignments, they will evaluate and interview together to discover more qualities that human resources are currently available but have not been exploited before to make adjustments to their responsibilities and duties in the near future, avoid letting employees see that after the assessment, the Company's leaders not make any moves for themselves, which easily makes frustrated psychology (affecting the task completion results) For those who have poor performance evaluation results: the company needs to find out the cause to have appropriate solutions such as adjusting tasks or transferring to take other tasks more suitable or can be sent for re-training to overcome the gaps in knowledge and skills compared to the job requirements Employees who not complete their duties 79 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com regularly and have a poor sense of discipline will be considered in accordance with the labor regulations - Using the performance evaluation results in promotion: At the end of the evaluation process, the information gathered for each employee will be updated in the personnel file The evaluation information in several consecutive periods along with the information has been updated in the personnel profile of the human resource, combined with the evaluation of the direct manager By monitoring the development situation of the employees, the company leaders can see those can put in planning, promote to a higher job position, more responsibility and a corresponding salary for them to work safely and devote to the company 3.2.5 Improving the environment and working conditions Aviva Vietnam has gradually built facilities and infrastructure to facilitate the work of workers The company is relatively well equipped with working equipment including personal computers, desks, chairs, offices, lighting, air conditioners In order to gain more efficiency in building a working environment for workers, the author proposes a number of solutions to continue to maintain good working environment as follows: - Regularly cleaning, checking, repairing and improving material facilities such as broken tables and chairs that need to be repaired; regularly warranty air conditioners, computers, elevators It is necessary to ensure the hygiene of working equipment of workers; renovate the exhaust and deodorization systems Carpets should be periodically cleaned to ensure a clean working environment for workers - Application of information technology to work to save time and effort for employees at the company: timekeeping software, training management software, various types of internal documents that have been compressed on the software and the staff only need download them if necessary - Promoting hygiene and food safety: To ensure the health of all workers, the company needs to regularly communicate food safety and hygiene knowledge to workers, so that they are aware of such importance In addition, the leadership can equip additional microwave ovens, refrigerators, water purifiers to further improve the hygiene and food safety issues for officials and employees - Creating a friendly and solid working environment: The company should organize meetings, exchanges, and share experiences in work so that employees can learn from each other, and also an opportunity for them to understand each other better, unite and stick together The division heads need to understand their employees, promptly detect and 80 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com directly mediate when conflicts occur in the colleague relationship, if the conflicts occur between departments, the company leadership will directly stand out to mediate, in the spirit of understanding, sympathy and sharing to further improve the friendly working environment and solidarity in the company - Investing money in organizing cultural and sport exchange and physical training activities for laborers: This activity is to create favorable conditions for laborers to participate in cultural and cultural exchange activities Technology, physical training and sports, rest and relaxation will create labor force, increase labor efficiency The company should strengthen measures to organize picnics on holidays and public holidays, organize activities such as March 8, October 20 or September 2,… - Creating favorable conditions for employees to bring their families to join the company's activities: In order to create a strong bond between employees and the company, the company leadership should encourage and create favorable conditions for the employees‟ family in the company can also attend the company's activities In order to this, the Company can organize parties, or exchange programs by Mid-Autumn Festival, International Children's Day, which can encourage all family members to join - Building new cultural values and propagating corporate culture: The company needs to develop policies and standards on corporate culture Management also needs to educate employees to remember collective values, build and strengthen employees' beliefs, create solidarity and cooperation relationships This is the way to create a good cultural atmosphere, the staff feels proud to stick, and consider business as their second home Building a healthy culture, a unique personality, and a high sense of solidarity, in which employees feel happy, care about each other in both work and in life and they will try to their work to achieve business goals Aviva Vietnam leaders need to assign the HR department to be responsible for building a business culture manual that specifies the rights, benefits and obligations of all employees working at the Company for all employees Resources at the Company are better understood, thereby building the company more developed 3.2.6 Improving the layout and arrangement of work for employees The satisfaction of the workforce will not be high if it is not arranged with the right jobs, their strengths and aspirations, and it also wears out over time without the richness and diversity and just repeat from time to time Therefore, job analysis plays a very important role The more detailed and accurate analysis with the contribution of manpower 81 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com and leadership helps the employees understand their tasks to be performed by week, month and quarter Aviva Vietnam pays salaries and bonuses to employees based on job evaluation In order to create fairness and objectivity from which to create staff satisfaction, employers must evaluate the performance of the work fairly and accurately The company needs to complete the job analysis in the direction of conducting job analysis every months to review the nature of the job If there is a big change, it is necessary to develop job descriptions and job standard accordingly The job analysis can be conducted according to the following basic steps: Step 1: Developing a to-do list to be analyzed and coding for different jobs Step 2: Developing the necessary tables and selecting the appropriate information collection method for the Company to collect information accurately There are many methods of collecting information but with the actual situation of the Company, the Company should use the questionnaire method combined with interviews and additional observations to collect information comprehensively and fully, which facilitates the analysis to be easy and accurate The questionnaire given may include open-ended questions, requiring workers to answer a lot of time, but the employee can give specific details of his work The questionnaire is sent to the jobs to be analyzed Step 3: Collecting information Information to be collected for analysis is information about the work, working conditions, tasks and responsibilities, job requirements of the person in charge Step 4: Processing the collected information and developing job analysis to use for specific goals Information processing methods used are statistical, mathematical and inference methods to synthesize and analyze survey results After the information has been collected and processed, the job analyst, the employee and the direct manager should review, discuss and agree on the job description and performance standards According to the survey results, the number of workers who only know their job duties through direct managers is still high In order for employees to know clearly and accurately their goals, the results of job analysis must be typed in writing and sent to each employee 82 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com - The job description includes information on tasks, responsibilities, powers, conditions for performing the work, relationships and issues related to the performance of a specific job - Performance standards: list all criteria that reflect the quantity and quality requirements of the completion of the tasks recorded in the job description 83 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com CONCLUSION Labor resources play an increasingly important role, determining the success or failure of an organization Human ability is infinite, so every business, every organization needs to pay attention to promoting the human element One of the particularly important measures to promote the capabilities of workers and to increase their dedication to the organization is satisfaction Creating staff satisfaction is an indispensable requirement because it directly affects the existence and development of every business Satisfaction is a desire to affirm your capacity and willingness to promote all efforts to achieve personal and corporate goals To improve staff satisfaction, businesses need to systematically apply policies, measures, management methods to keep them motivated at work, motivate them to be more satisfied with their jobs and look forward to contributing to the business The thesis has completed the contribution in both
