1 New Performance Management Policy APRIL 2013

2 So whats this all about? A fair, wider ranging and more open system for honest performance assessment …in which we evaluate the how (behaviours) as well as the what (delivery) …with validation of performance ratings across employee groups of the same grade …to help in awarding ratings, addressing performance and developing talent

3 So does this change everything? No. The key relationship is still between job holder and manager (eg to set objectives) …the emphasis remains on fairness, honest feedback and managing performance promptly …with the aim of developing our people for the benefit of the Agency as well as themselves …but with a broader view of performance

4 Main Changes (1) CEO email 17 Dec 12 introduced the changes Performance & development year begins Apr Mandatory people management objective & leadership objective (HRAN 2009/02) SMART objectives (+ reasonable adjustments) Assessed against `what (delivery) and `how (behaviours, competencies, values) Consistency check across peer groups

5 Main Changes (2) Regular performance discussions Mandatory mid-year review (Sep/Oct) Job-holders complete a self-assessment of their performance at mid-year LMs provide an indication of performance level using the Performance Wave tool Validation check across peer groups

6 Main Changes (3) 3 performance ratings: 1 = exceeded outcomes & behaviours 2 = exceeded / satisfactory / just met 3 = satisfactory / must improve/develop NB: Employees being formally managed for poor performance are excluded
