Inside the product

Everything you need, exactly where you expect it.

The appraisal dashboard gives HR full visibility into every cycle — who's completed, who's pending, and how ratings are distributed. Bell curve analytics surface any department with skewed ratings so you can course-correct before the cycle closes.

Keeping performance culture as you scale
KRA-based tracking means goals stay visible all year — not just during review season. Performance stays on track.
People-first organisations
Making reviews fair and bias-free
Bell curve analytics and structured peer reviews remove the subjectivity that makes traditional appraisals unreliable.
Compliance coverage

Performance compliance that protects the company.

A structured, documented appraisal process protects the company legally and ensures every increment and promotion decision is defensible.

Labour Law
Documented performance records
Every appraisal cycle produces a documented performance record per employee. Critical in dispute resolution and wrongful termination claims.
Contract Law
Increment letters with legal terms
Increment and promotion letters generated with legally valid terms. Changes to compensation are documented and acknowledged by the employee.
Factories Act
Non-discriminatory rating process
Bell curve analytics and structured rating frameworks ensure appraisals are objective and defensible against discrimination or bias allegations.
Labour Law
PIP documentation
Performance Improvement Plans documented within the system with timelines, goals, and outcomes. Creates a clear paper trail before any disciplinary action.
Data Privacy
Confidential review data
Peer reviews, manager feedback, and rating data stored with strict access controls. Only authorised stakeholders can view individual performance data.
Payroll
Increment-to-payroll audit trail
Every salary change triggered by an appraisal is linked back to the approved rating and increment letter — creating a complete audit trail from review to payslip.
Common questions

Everything you need to know.

What review types are supported?
Self-review, manager review, peer review (180° and 360°), and skip-level reviews. You configure which apply to which roles.
How does KRA tracking work?
Managers and employees set KRAs at the start of the cycle. Progress is updated throughout the year and scored at review time.
What is bell curve analysis?
NavoraHR analyses rating distribution across departments and flags any that deviate significantly from the expected curve, helping HR maintain fair calibration.
Can increments be processed in bulk?
Yes. Once ratings are approved, increment percentages can be applied in bulk across the entire organisation or filtered by department.
