There should be a logical relationship between the overall performance level and the other sections of the evaluation form, so that the other sections support the overall performance level. Once the evaluation has been completed, the supervisor should sign and date the evaluation in the appropriate space. Performance evaluations must be submitted to reviewers before being presented to employees. If the reviewer is unable to review evaluations, the next higher level of management should conduct the review. Once the review is completed, the reviewer should sign and date the evaluation in the appropriate space.
Reviewers have final approval of performance evaluations.
Reviewers may concur with the performance evaluations or require supervisors to make changes. The purpose of the performance evaluation meeting is to provide the supervisor and employee an opportunity to discuss job performance during the previous year and to make plans for maintaining or improving that performance in the future. The employee should be given reasonable notification of the evaluation meeting time and prepared to discuss performance expectations for the next year. The employee should review the evaluation form, write any comments in Section L, and sign the form indicating the results have been discussed. If the employee refuses to sign the evaluation form, the supervisor should sign the form and indicate the employee had the opportunity to sign it and refused.
