Prioritize employee performance evaluation indicators of Mazandaran Province by use of fuzzy AHP

The extent to which the goals are achieved through the measurement of performance as well as the efficiency and effectiveness of each organization are the principles of organization's dynamism. Therefore, current research has focused on the prioritization of public indicators of performance evaluation of Mazandaran province's employee through the fuzzy hierarchy analysis process. Since the evaluation of criteria is essentially subjective and qualitative, it is difficult for experts and decision-makers to express their judgments and preferences in terms of exact numerical values. Hence, the fuzzy hierarchical process analysis process, based on the concept of fuzzy theory, is used in this research. In this method, paired comparisons are performed based on linguistic words and fuzzy numbers. Accordingly,, the fuzzy pair comparisons were designed and sub-indices and were distributed to completion between experts. Then, using the Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process and Expert Choice software, the fuzzy weights of each of the indices and sub-indices were determined and compared using one of the effective methods for ranking fuzzy quantities. The results show that among the general indicators of employee performance evaluation, the index of initiative and creativity was the first priority
