Overall Ratings - Review Model Performance – Outstanding performance that results in extraordinary and
exceptional accomplishments with significant contributions to goals of the Organization, Department or Senior Management area. Model Performer overall rating should outline what the employee did to exceed expectations. P141 is no longer needed to issue an overall Model rating. (A+ to A)
Strong Performance – Good solid performance. Fulfills position requirements and goals and may on occasion generate results above those expected of the position. (A- to C-) Majority of staff employees will fall into this category.
Developing Performance – Performance leaves room for improvement. Employee requires either additional development in certain areas and/or not responding to coaching for performance improvement. It should not be for a new hire that is learning at the rate that you expect. Developing overall rating should outline deficiencies in supervisor summary. (D+ to D-)
Unacceptable Performance – Performance is well below the minimum position requirements. Contact HR - Requires immediate review and action including a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP). P142 or written notice should be active in file for employee. (F)
Use Self Evaluation OR Create New Performance Evaluation
A – Self Evaluation
If the employee completed self-evaluation online, the employee’s evaluation will show with their comments or ratings.
B – No Self Evaluation
Status will say No Evaluation exists. Supervisor will enter the actual results and rate employee on each goal and/or competency.
Overall Rating – Reviewer Reviews
Overall Rating/Finalize and Send to Reviewer
Enter Overall Rating and Comments as Supervisor in Summary. Once finished click on “Save.” Then click on View Evaluation. You can then print a .pdf copy of the evaluation. Once you have finished reviewing, you can go back to any section to make changes or you can Finalize and Send to Reviewer.
Reviewer Reviews
Once the Reviewer reviews they can send back to Supervisor for further edits. If Reviewer is satisfied, they will approve evaluation and it will go into Sent to Budget Authority mode. This mode is set in case pay is linked to performance. It places the evaluation in a holding place until all evaluations are completed. DSA HR can release from Budget Authority if not linked to pay.
Release to EmployeeSenior Management Approved
Once the evaluation is Released from the Budget Authority, Supervisor will receive an e-mail that evaluation can be released to employee. Supervisor will schedule a time to meet with employee.
Employee Approved After Supervisor has met with
employee to go over evaluation, the evaluation can be released in system to the employee. Employee can either approve online or Supervisor can click on alternative sign off. It is only complete if it says either Employee Approved or Employee Reviewed and Approved a Paper Copy.
