Section 27-120-6.1 - SCOPE

A performance review system serves several distinct purposes and functions, including: aligns, corrects, and leverages the performance of each employee; allows managers to make effective decisions regarding workforce performance issues; and promotes quality services. The performance of each employee whose position is under the salary setting authority of MSPB must be reviewed at least annually.

Performance reviews must be administered in a fair manner and in compliance with state and federal laws. The Performance Review System (hereinafter referred to as "PRS") assesses an employee's performance at either the Outstanding (3.0) Performance Level, the Successful (2.0 - 2.9) Performance Level, or the Improvement Needed (1.0 - 1.9) Performance Level.
