CONFIDENTIALITY OF PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS Clause Samples

The "Confidentiality of Performance Evaluations" clause is designed to ensure that the results and contents of employee performance evaluations are kept private and not disclosed to unauthorized parties. Typically, this clause restricts access to evaluation documents and discussions to only those individuals who have a legitimate business need, such as HR personnel or direct supervisors. By maintaining the confidentiality of these evaluations, the clause protects employee privacy, prevents workplace gossip or bias, and helps foster a fair and respectful work environment.
