For Supervisory and Non-Supervisory Staff 
_____________________________________________________________________________  
PART I - INSTRUCTIONS   
Please follow these instructions carefully to complete the appraisal of your employee’s 
performance during the last performance period. 
 
Give a copy of PART II, Employee Pre-Interview Worksheet
, to your employee and instruct 
him/her to complete it in preparation of his/her annual performance review.  Briefly explain the 
form to ensure that the employee understands what is expected and answer any questions.  Set 
a date for the employee to return the completed worksheet to you for your review before the 
performance appraisal meeting, and then schedule the meeting. 
 
Complete PART III, Performance, Behavioral Traits and Supervisory Factors.
  
This section contains five performance factors, seven behavioral traits, and six supervisory 
factors that are important in the performance of the employee’s job.  All employees are to be 
rated on Performance Factors and Behavioral Traits; the Supervisory Factors apply only to 
employees with supervisory responsibilities.  
The supervisor/rater should indicate the employee’s 
performance by checking the box
 next to the appropriate level of performance. NOTE:    A rating of 
Unacceptable (1) or Needs Improvement (2) on any item requires explanatory comments.   
1 =    UNACCEPTABLE - Consistently fails to meet job requirements; performance clearly below minimum 
requirements.  Immediate improvement required to maintain employment. 
2 =   
NEEDS IMPROVEMENT – Occasionally fails to meet job requirements; performance must improve to 
meet expectations of position. 
3 = 
MEETS EXPECTATIONS – Able to perform 100% of job duties satisfactorily.  Normal guidance and 
supervision are required. 
4 = 
EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS – Frequently exceeds job requirements; all planned objectives were 
achieved above the established standards and accomplishments were made in unexpected areas 
as well. 
5 = 
SUPERIOR – Consistently exceeds job requirements; this is the highest level of performance that 
can be attained.   
 
All comments should be included in Part IV, “Overall Performance Evaluation Narrative.”
 The 
“overall performance” evaluation should reflect the employee’s total performance, including the 
performance factors as related to the employee’s responsibilities and duties as set forth in the job 
description, behavioral traits and supervisory factors, if applicable.  
Part V, “Overall Performance Score” should
 then be completed by following the instructions in 
that section. 
Part VI, “For the Employee”
 is an opportunity for the employee to make any comments 
regarding the appraisal or the appraisal process.
