HR Question of the week

When do classified performance evaluations take place?

The annual classified performance evaluations for employees begin in March. The period for this year’s classified evaluations is March 18 through May 29. Employees and supervisors will use the online evaluation tool to complete the process.

Classified employees, their managers and supervisors will receive email notifications with detailed information regarding the online process and access instructions.

There also are two webinars available for supervisors and managers. “Navigating the Online Evaluation Process” will familiarize evaluators with the online assessment tool. “Assessing and Improving the Performance of Others” is a webinar for new managers and supervisors.

You can register for any of these webinars at www.kent.edu/hr/employee/performance/performance-evaluation-resources.cfm. If you are unable to attend one of the sessions, they will be recorded and available for viewing a few days after the presentation.

Information for classified evaluators and employees is available at www.kent.edu/hr/employee/performance/performance-evaluation-classified.cfm. This site provides information and the link to complete the evaluation.
