Performance Evaluations

Although coaching and recognition should happen throughout the year, the performance evaluation process is an excellent time for managers & supervisors to give employees feedback on their performance and accomplishments of the previous year. The Iowa Promise Strategic Plan incorporates an indicator that requires 100% participation. Thanks for your assistance in attaining this goal! Appraisal Reports There are several reports available in Employee Self Service (with Level 1 access) that can assist departments in completing the 100% participation mark. On the HR Applications page, select 'reports' and then choose Human Resources Reports. From here, you can select any of the following reports listed below:

1. Appraisals - All: This is a list of all employees (by Department) eligible for appraisals. HR encourages evaluation of all employees. However, this report will not include staff who were hired, reclassified or transferred in the past year, as evaluation of these employees is not mandatory.
2. Appraisals - Completed: List of Employees by Department who have had appraisals completed during the fiscal year of the date entered.
3. Appraisals - Not Yet Completed: List of Employees by Department who have not yet had appraisals completed during the fiscal year of the date entered.
