Employee Performance Review Software - What Should you Look For?
Prior to implementing a performance evaluation system you will need to determine what are your expectations for your employees? Are they measurable? In other words think about what you are evaluating them on. Is it subjective or objective? Is it a feeling you have or is it real?
Free Employee Evaluation Forms CategoriesA typical evaluation form will have the following items to evaluate and rate; Job Knowledge Quality of Work Quantity of Work Oral and Written Communication Skills Team Work Reliability Flexibility/Adaptability Initiative Time a Management Decision Making/Problem Solving You can add 0 his list, or take away from it, to meet your specific organizational goals, but this should be a good starting point. When you are considering your expectations remember to think about salaried versus hourly employees. This will most likely mean that you would have different evaluation for s for each.
Free Employee Evaluation Forms GeneralOther things to consider placing on your evaluation would be; Strengths/Weaknesses Areas of Improvement Plan of Action Employee Comments Some organizations will ask the employee to complete a self evaluation first. Some may only ask the employee for written input that they would like to see included on their evaluation. Most will not make it mandatory; however, in some cases they may for salaried employees. A lot of employees are uncomfortable with doing a self evaluation, so I would not recommend making it mandatory. When it comes to rating an employee I prefer a numbering scale or 1 to 5, where 5 is the top rating. See the evaluation form below that I have provided. Make sure that when you are rating an employee that it is accurate. One problem that a lot of new supervisors get into is inflating the ratings. What ends up happening is that Average is no longer Average, and everyone becomes above average or excellent. This makes your rating system and evaluation system useless. During the evaluation period it is recommended that you make notes of an employee's performance, such as, when they accomplish a project or goals that were met. Of course you can also make negative notes as well, such as, attendance or times they failed to complete a project on time. This should not be kept in the individuals file unless you met with them and they received a copy of it. These would be general notes that are kept in a general file. It is important that you are honest and accurate with your assessment of the employee. When going over the evaluation with your employee make sure you set your expectations for the following year. If you, or the employee, identify barriers to accomplishing those goals, make sure you remove those barriers or remove the expectation. Finally ask the employee what you can do to help them! You never know what they may ask for. Download the below form in a printable format that will save you time and money. It is all ready formated so all you have to do is make multiple copies and use!

Free Employee Evaluation Forms Section 1 INSTRUCTIONS
1. RATING: Based on the rating system in place rate each and every category. If the category does not apply place a N/A for not applicable. Once every category has been rated/completed add the numbers up and then divide by the total categories rated (do not count not applicable categories). The results of this procedure would represent the total for the evaluation. 2. COMMENTS: Use this section to make any relevant comments that help support the rating given for that specific category. This is a very important and critical element of the evaluation process. It is expected that comments will be made for each category. It is important to use actual examples whenever possible. 3. GENERAL: In this section it is extremely important to be as specific as possible when completing each category. Use actual examples whenever possible. This section is not rated but should be consider as important for an overall understanding of the employees evaluation for the previous year and any necessary actions for the upcoming one. 4. SIGNATURES: Make sure that both you and the employee signs and dates the evaluation form. RATING
1 EXCELLENT - Give this rating when the employee is performing with very little to no errors, and requires little to no supervision. 2 ABOVE AVERAGE - Give this rating when the employee has very few errors and requires very little supervision. 3 AVERAGE - Give this rating when the employee makes few errors and requires a moderate amount of supervision. 4 BELOW AVERAGE - Give this rating when the employee makes several errors and requires a large amount of supervision. This employee needs retraining to become competent. 5 UNSATISFACTORY - Give this rating when the employee makes a large amount of errors and needs constant supervision. This employee is very close to failing and will need to be placed on a performance improvement plan. At a minimum will need significant training to become competent. NOT APPLICABLE - This employee either does not perform this type of work or has not been observed enough for the supervisor to rate them in that particular category.
