Additionally, there are some human aspects of performance appraisal such as integrity and ethical values that enhances trust in appraisal process. This study therefore recommends that the government should adopt appraisal processes that incorporate integrity and ethical values that will ensure continuous trust in the appraisal process, adopt effective reward mechanisms and effective feedback policies. The study limited itself to teachers in public secondary schools.
