Employee Performance Review Form

Fifth Avenue Committee, Inc. (Revised 2000)

NAME: EVAL DATE:

UNIT: LAST EVAL:

JOB TITLE:

Goals of this Performance Evaluation

·  To provide an opportunity to take a personal inventory of strengths & weaknesses.

·  To provide clear feedback from supervisor on work performance, strengths & weaknesses.

·  To outline and agree upon a program for practical improvement and employee development.

·  To provide a clear basis for evaluating merit raises, probationary period, etc.

Instructions

Step 1: Before the evaluation period begins, the employee and supervisor should fill out the “Major Job Goals, Objectives, and Responsibilities.” Ideally, this should be done initially when the employee is hired (to be used at the initial 6-month review), and then revised each year – for the year-to-come – at the employee’s Annual Performance Review. This form should match both (a) the employee’s job description, and (b) the FAC strategic plan goals & objectives that the employee works on. If this has not been done in advance, the employees and supervisor must fill it out prior to completing the evaluation form. In addition, people are encouraged to use this form throughout the year, in developing workplans.

Step 2: For individuals who supervise others, the Supervisees’ Feedback form should be used. The employee being reviewed gives a copy of the form (& the Org'l Improvement Form) to the people they supervise. They should fill out the form in advance indicating in the “Return Form To” space the name of their supervisor. Forms are then returned to the employees supervisor – all forms are confidential. The supervisor of the person being reviewed will then compile the feedback into one form. If the individual being reviewed only supervises 1 or 2 people, then those supervisees can choose to have an informal conversation with the supervisor, who will then convey overall impressions rather than a compiled form.

Step 3: Both the employee and her/his supervisor are to complete separate evaluation forms for the annual performance review. The employee is to complete the form as a self-assessment; the supervisor is to complete the form to evaluate the employee’s performance.

Step 4: When the forms are completed, they are to be discussed by the employee and supervisor. When the meeting is completed, both are to sign the forms. The employee’s signature does not necessarily indicate agreement, but instead that this procedure has been followed. If an employee is dissatisfied with the results of the evaluation, they should refer to the FAC Personnel Manual. Both completed forms will be included in the employee’s personnel file.

Step 5: If a Salary or Job Action (e.g. end of probation period, merit raise etc.) is being made, the Salary/Job Action form must be completed. It should be signed by the supervisor and the employee. Again, the employee’s signature does not necessarily indicate agreement, but only that this procedure has been followed. It should then be forwarded to the Unit Director and Executive Director for approval, and then to the Office Manager for implementation.


Major Job Goals, Objectives, and Responsibilities

·  This form should be completed prior to the evaluation period – generally when a new employee is hired, or at the end of an Annual Performance Review (for the next year).

·  Employee & supervisor should agree upon specific job goals, objectives, or responsibilities during the period to be evaluated.

·  These goals should reflect the employee’s job description.

·  These goals should reflect the FAC Strategic Plan.

·  Employees & supervisors are encouraged to utilize this form in developing workplans.

FAC Supervisees’ Feedback on Supervisor

·  Forms should be returned to the employee’s supervisor (see “Return Form To”) below.

·  The supervisor of the person being reviewed will compile the feedback into one form.
