Abstract:
Job efficiency is a level of performance that describes a process that uses the lowest amount of inputs to create the greatest amount of outputs. Efficiency also can be stated as the act of being adequate in performance with a minimum of waste, effort, time. Effectiveness "is the capability of producing a desired result. When something is deemed effective, it means it has an intended or expected outcome, or produces a deep, vivid impression". According to that, if an employee is efficient so perhaps he may be also effectiveness even after training.Hence the present study was undertaken to develop a Thurstone’s Equal Appearing Interval Scale to measure the job efficiency of the Veterinary Assistant Surgeons of Tamil Nadu. Purposive sampling was employed and Erode district of Tamil Nadu was purposively selected for the study. Sixty Veterinary Assistant Surgeons working in Erode District were randomly selected as judges. At the time of interview, all the 109 statements were presented to the Veterinary Assistant Surgeons and they were requested to sort out the 109 attitude statements on an 11 point continuum from the ‘least favourable’ to ‘most favourable’. Statements with larger Q-values were eliminated from the final list of statements. Thus the final list comprises of 18 statements.
