ABSTRACT
This study examined the awareness and attitudes and status of staff on Open
Performance and Review Appraisal System in the Public sector in Tanzania. The study
was conducted at Sikonge Designated Hospital in Sikonge District in Tabora Region.
This study employed both cross sectional as well as a case study to get data about the
problem. The sample of the study consisted of 80 employees who were obtained by
multistage cluster sampling. Data were collected from different section in the Sikonge
District designated Hospital so as to examine the attitudes of employees on OPRAS in
public organisation. Data collection method included questionnaire, interviews and
documentation review. The data collected were analysed through the use of Statistical
Package of Social Science (SPSS).
The findings show that most staff had negative perception on the way the OPRAS was
used in human resource management. In addition, few cases of value addition were
reported for sections using OPRAS such as making staff creative, confidence and
productive. However, issues of delay in distributing funds, low management priority on
OPRAS and use of fixed salary were reported to be the major challenges facing the
OPRAS.
The entire conclusion from the study expected to reveal the altitudes of employees on
Open Performance and Review system in Public sector in Tanzania and measures to be
taken to improve the effectiveness of OPRAS in Public sector in Tanzania.
It is, therefore, recommended that the government should devise the regulations that
will enforce the use of OPRAS. This should go hand in hand with revising the payment
system of which we currently use fixed rate that is not matching with the OPRAS
principles. Funds should be distributed timely to make the staff responsible and hence
meet their agreed objectives.
