B. a performance appraisal

Explanation:

A performance appraisal is the regular review of an employee's performance to analyze his level of personal development and contribution to the progress of the company. Companies carry out a performance appraisal so as to know which employees are deserving of a pay raise, salary cut, promotion, more training, and even termination of the job in cases where the employee's performance is way below acceptable standards. Some types of performance appraisal include;

1. The 360-degree feedback appraisal where opinions about the employee's performance are sourced from the employee's subordinates, his peers, and seniors in the organization.

2. Peer assessment where opinions about the employee's performance are gotten from his peers.

3. Self-assessment where the employee gives his own personal opinion about his performance level.
