The goal of a state bureau of rehabilitation, with 300 employees, is totrain convicts in new skillsandplace them in jobs. Convicts getclassroom trainingandpart-time jobsthrough a work-release program. Once they are released from prison, the bureau tries to place them inpermanent jobs that utilize their training.

The new director wants to institute a performance management system.

Please explain the purpose of the training program and why is it for the greater good of society.

Define the following program measures: efficiency, effectiveness and equity, and identify how you would select them precisely enough so they can be calculated.

Efficiency: measure the ratio of service output to service inputs

Effectiveness: measures how well the service is delivered, satisfactory.

Equity: measure fairness, impartiality or equality of service.

How would you go about selecting quantitative goals for each of your performance measures, that is, what process would you go through to select goals?

Quantitative: Numerical information gathered that can be measured or counted.

Qualitative: Descriptive information gathered about characteristics that cannot be defined numerically such as: qualities, colors, feelings (interviews)

What are the likely problems with each measure; that is, which are most prone to displacement, cheating, and so forth, by employees? How can you alleviate the problems for each such measure?

How can the director use which measures to improve which activities of the bureau? Be very specific and detailed; do not give general answers.
