Performance Feedback 

Employees and their supervisors are encouraged to discuss job performance and goals on an informal, day-to-day basis.  A formal performance review may be conducted at any time at the discretion of the employee's supervisor.  Performance reviews are intended to reflect the employee's effectiveness on the job, and are a continuing record of job performance.  They allow the supervisor to measure the employees' work against the requirements of their positions, review results of negotiated business goals, and assess general performance behaviors.

Employees can expect to receive performance reviews at least annually on the close of the Chapter's fiscal year.    

Salary increases are related in part to individual performance as assessed on the employee's performance review and are considered on the basis of the salary grade, the Chapter's financial capacity and in the Chapter's sole and absolute discretion.

As a result of performance feedback, employee development activities may be pursued.  Employee development is a collaborative effort between the Chapter, supervisors, and employees to align individual goals with the overall direction of the Chapter.  Development efforts are focused on building the capabilities of all employees.
