Employee Performance Review System

The Employee Performance Review System includes four components (forms). The Employee Performance Review (PER-47) is the only required component. Optional components are: Employee's Annual Report of Activities (PER-48), Professional Development and Growth Plan (PER-49) and Performance on Goals and Projects (PER-50). Optional components are selected by the supervisor and the employee based on which are best suited to the position. All forms are available in multiple formats on the HR Performance Review Forms page.

The supervisor and the employee have the flexibility to use only the Employee Performance Review (PER-47) or any of the three optional components in conjunction with the Employee Performance Review (PER-47). They are encouraged to be creative in tailoring the Employee Performance Review System to reflect their particular needs. The Employee Performance Review System can be as simple as one component or as sophisticated as four components.

At the beginning of the review period, the supervisor and the employee agree on performance criteria and related performance expectations tailored to the position. Performance expectations may come from the responsibilities listed in the job description or from other job functions. At the conclusion of the review period, these are used as standards for measuring and reporting performance effectiveness.
