Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I conduct these evaluations?

It is recommended to conduct formal performance evaluations at least annually, though semi-annual reviews are often more effective for identifying and correcting performance gaps early.

Should the employee see the form before the meeting?

Yes, providing the employee with a blank or partially completed form prior to the meeting allows them to prepare their own self-assessment and creates a more collaborative discussion.

What should I do if an employee disagrees with a rating?

Allow the employee to provide their perspective and document their comments in the "Employee Remarks" section of the form. If necessary, provide additional evidence or examples to clarify the reasoning behind the rating.
