EVALUATION OF EMPLOYEES Clause Samples
The 'Evaluation of Employees' clause establishes the procedures and standards by which an employer assesses the performance and conduct of its employees. Typically, this clause outlines the frequency of evaluations, the criteria or metrics used, and the process for providing feedback or addressing deficiencies. For example, it may require annual performance reviews or set out steps for improvement plans if expectations are not met. The core function of this clause is to ensure a structured and transparent approach to employee assessment, promoting accountability and supporting professional development within the organization.
EVALUATION OF EMPLOYEES. Section 1. Performance evaluations are designed to serve the needs of both the employee and University. An organized program for employee performance evaluation will:
A. Improve employee satisfaction and potentially reduce employee absenteeism, turnover, and grievances;
B. Serve as an important motivational tool and improve the quality of job performance;
C. Enhance the ability to achieve Affirmative Action goals through improved supervisor-employee communications;
D. Base personnel actions on objective, accurate and fair performance appraisals;
E. Monitor the performance of probationary employees on a timely basis. Performance evaluation is the review and rating of all factors relevant to an employee’s effectiveness on the job. It involves observation, guidance, training and open communication between the employee and supervisor. For it to be of significant benefit to both the individual employee and the University, it should be a continuous process. Performance evaluation should be seen primarily as a developmental tool. Its purpose is to assess an employee’s job related strengths and weaknesses and develop his/her competence to the fullest. In a correctly executed evaluation, the supervisor and the employee work together to find the means by which the employee’s ability can be strengthened and directed.
Section 2. To the extent practicable, performance evaluation of an employee shall be completed by mid-September, with the exception of a probationary employee who shall be evaluated in accordance with Article 19.
Section 3. Each employee shall receive a written copy of his/her evaluation and shall be entitled to discuss the evaluation with his/her immediate supervisor and, if requested, with the supervisor of the next higher level who has been so assigned. Upon receipt of a “Does Not Meet Standards” evaluation, the employee shall receive a remedial plan on how to reach a “Meets Standards” rating, and shall be re- evaluated after ninety (90) days.
Section 4. The Human Resources Office shall receive all evaluations from the Department Head and shall retain such evaluations, together with any recommendations made on the basis of any such evaluations and evidence or materials submitted in support of such evaluations, in the respective personnel file of each employee.
