Performance Appraisals Performance appraisals are an opportunity for employees, supervisors, and the city to assess employee job performance. The performance appraisal system is designed to: • Ensure that quality services are provided to the public at the least possible cost; • Motivate and develop employees to their fullest potential; • Clarify roles and mutual expectations of supervisors and employees; • Promote open and ongoing communication between employees at all levels, including feedback from subordinates to supervisors; and • Assist in determination of whether employees are meeting the established performance standards for their position. Performance appraisal forms generally will be maintained in the employee's personnel file. Immediate supervisors will conduct performance appraisals annually, and may conduct formal or informal performance appraisals more frequently if necessary or prescribed by the city administrator or the department director. The performance appraisal usually will be in writing and must be signed by the employee and supervisor. Signing of f the performance appraisal document by the employee acknowledges the review has been discussed with the supervisor and does not necessarily constitute agreement. Failure to sign the document by the employee will not delay_processing. Employees do not have the right to change or grieve their performance appraisal, but may submit a written response which will be attached to the performance appraisal. Attendance 9
