7. STEP-BY-STEP EXECUTION GUIDE

• Verification: Ensure the Reviewer cross-references the appraisal scores against verifiable logs (e.g., electronic sign-in sheets, supply usage reports, and client complaint/compliment logs).
• Consultation: Conduct the review in a private setting. If an employee receives a total average score below 3.0, legal counsel or HR must be present to deliver the accompanying PIP documentation.
• Archival: Digital copies must be stored in the employee's encrypted personnel file. Hard copies, if signed, should be scanned and shredded via cross-cut destruction to maintain compliance with privacy regulations.
• Enforcement: File this instrument as the primary evidentiary record in the event of future termination or disciplinary proceedings related to failure to perform job duties.
