  14. OCFO Performance Guidelines

  15. Performance Guidelines developed to articulate and help assess/rate performance Guidelines are guidance, but don’t reflect all factors used to determine overall rating, which will also include: • Success in accomplishing goals – performance & job development • Performance relative to peers throughout the OCFO • Special assignments. E.g. OCA • Feedback How to use the Guidelines • Use to assess performance on responsibilities and goals • Describe and assess employee in Strength / Development Sections of performance review Assessing Performance OCFO Approach

  16. Writing Performance ReviewsThings to Do • Keep it simple and succinct – summarize overall performance of job, focus on key goals and accomplishments • Evaluate performance directly related to the employee’s job duties as described in the Position Description • Review the employee’s performance over the entire 12 month performance cycle • Give specific examples • Use objective measurement and examples of impact • Acknowledge improvement as appropriate • Solicit customer / peer feedback

  17. Writing Performance ReviewsThings to Avoid • No surprises in the review – problems or issues should have been previously discussed • References to personality, behavior, and stress level • References to Age, Race, Ethnicity, Gender, Disability, Sexual Orientation, etc. • Colorful, subjective and editorial comments which can be taken out of context • References to medical leaves, leave of absences, part-time work, school schedule • Do not use personal names – use job titles

  18. Writing Performance ReviewsThings to Avoid • Bias Effect – when arbitrary factors may influence the rater to distort appraisal information • Horn Effect – focusing accomplishment on only negative things • Halo Effect – focusing accomplishments on only positive things • Leniency Effect – all employees get high or low scores • RecencyEffect - when more weight is given to recent occurrences and discounts the employees earlier performance

  19. Writing Performance ReviewsNext Performance Year Goals Performance Goals • Use BLI Tool – 5 Steps for Setting Goals • Work with employee to mutually agree in identifying goals, in addition to what is already defined in their position description Job Development Goals • Improvement Needed? • Include items from Areas for Development • Agree on time frame for improvement • Create and agree on an action plan that outlines performance expectations and spells out goals Career Development Goals • Clarifies the employee’s short- & long-term career interests • Aligns the employee’s development interests with the needs of the Group/Department/Division f

  22. Performance Review DiscussionThings to Do and Avoid Things to Do • Send employee the performance review a day before the discussion meeting • Take the opportunity to thank your employee for their job performance • Solicit feedback, encourage questions – view as a opportunity to have a constructive discussion • Discuss areas of strengths and improvement • Discuss Career Development • Address any Employee Comments • Be open to changes to the performance review Things to Avoid • Do not sign performance review until after the discussion

  23. Performance Review DiscussionDifficult Message • Helpful Tips in Delivering a Tough Message: • Be prepared to deal with a range of emotions that may be expressed by the employee, stay calm… Too much emotion? Take a time out or reschedule • Prepare • Role play meeting with supervisor or HR staff - Practice, practice, practice • Refer to previous documentation or conversations. Support your statements. Discuss examples of where employee didn’t meet performance. • Focus discussion on job performance concerns, not personal/medical problems • Solicit individuals input on their view of performance • Allow for awkward silence, people process differently, some get quiet • Don’t commit to changes or action plans due to employees reactions • Stress that you are sincerely interested in seeing employee correct performance concerns • If employee refuses to sign review, remind that signature is acknowledgment of receipt not agreement
