No Formal Documented Performance Evaluation for Contractual Personnel

[JaneB]

I have heard that many times from several department heads of our organization.

Interesting. It must be a 'local meaning' - do you happen by any chance to know what they mean by it? You have me wondering now.

Unless they mean the 'employees' aren't actually alive, but just resemble something alive

Alitaptap,
A relatively simple way to meet this requirement would be to have some kind of record of assessment of relevant contracted employees - you could keep this very brief. It often works well to put it on/with the recruitment documentation, eg, an assessment after they start working for you by their supervisor/team leader/manager or similar.
I imagine this does happen at the moment but that it's informal and not recorded. All you need to do is build something into your system, and have at least one record that it was done. Naturally, if they're not competent for the work you need to do something - whether that be training & further assessment, or replacement.

I think it is being used internally. Maybe other organizations are not using it to describe direct hired employees. We must ask people across the globe.

Hello world

May we ask for your inputs, please?



PS: I am going to ask our department heads what they mean by organic.

alitaptap, this thread is not appropriate for your question and do not take it off track.

Btw, you could investigate within your Organization first on the origin of the word "organic" and let the world know. Additionally, as per another thread, you could also give new defintions to "magnify", "minify", "substitute"

I’m so sorry for asking these words.

I would think all organizations need to know the competency and awareness of employees (temp, full time, contract, whatever) whether a standard requires it or not.

How does management know that hiring these contract labor and the training they get is adequate?

You would be amazed how many organizations do not have formalized job descriptions (duties, responsibilities & authorities). In such cases the hiring process becomes very subjective and often ineffective.

No formal (documented) performance evaluation was done for contractual employees due to a large number of contractual employees we hire.

Do you keep training records? (if not, you should - a simple list of training topics with a signature and the date training took place would do) You could add a section for "supervisor evaluation" and a couple boxes to check:

1. employee demonstrates effective work habits.

or

2. employee does not demonstrate effective work habits.

Do this within the first month (or three months, or week - whatever seems appropriate) and every year (or whenever you do permanent employee evaluations) after that.

This is very simple and practical. I’m sure this method will definitely work. Thank you for sharing, Scott.
