How
to employee evaluation?
Employee evaluation is an important tool for businesses and
benefits the employer and employee. The human resources department plays a
critical role in ensuring that evaluations are done effectively and that the
knowledge gained is used to aid in employee development, as well as in HR
processes, including recruitment and training. HR departments that effectively
design, implement, manage and improve employee evaluation processes can have a
measurable impact on the companies they serve.
Job Descriptions
The starting point for effective employee
evaluation is the job description. The job description outlines the duties and
responsibilities for the employee in the position and lays the foundation
against which the employee will be evaluated.
Core Competencies
Employees must possess core competencies to be
successful in their jobs. A combination of the tasks outlined in the job
description and the core competencies required to be successful will provide a
framework for evaluation.
Forms & Administration
Every evaluation process requires administration,
which includes forms, policies and procedures communicated to employees and
their managers. An important part of these systems includes the rating system
that will be used to evaluate employee performance.
Training for Management
The most important aspect of ensuring an
effective employee evaluation system is providing training for the supervisors
and managers who will be responsible for evaluating employee performance. Too
often it is assumed that managers will know how and what to do. HR departments
that provide specific training and access to resources for managers and
supervisors can ensure that the evaluation process will be effective.
Monitoring & Making Improvements
No evaluation system will remain stagnant
forever. Organizational needs change-- job requirements change--and employee
and manager turnover mean that training must be ongoing. HR departments need to
continually monitor the evaluation system to ensure that it is meeting the
needs of employees, managers and the organization as a whole.
