A performance review evaluates employees' productivity and identifies areas for improvement, aligning them with workplace expectations. These reviews are crucial for making informed decisions about promotions, raises, and layoffs.
The Indirect Employee Performance Review Management feature lets you monitor the progress of managers and their indirect reports on performance reviews. It also allows you to download the data as a CSV file, which can be uploaded to programs like Microsoft Excel for printing or further analysis.
Important
At this time, indirect employees and secondary managers cannot respond to the reviews.
Getting started
The below premises will walk you through how to filter review periods and view an employee review.
- Click the Performance menu.
- Click the Performance Review Management submenu.
- Click the desired review period.
- Click the Indirect Employees tab.
- Click on the employee whose review you want to view.
Helpful Hint
You will now see the employee's review on your screen along with their managers' responses. You can click the Expand or Minimise buttons to either close or open a review question.
Further information
A primary manager can view their direct employees reviews in the Direct Employees tab via the Reviews Management module. Clicking into the review, they will be able to see the primary manager's comments as they are the primary manager, i.e. they can see their own comments. They can also print the review with their own comments, before publishing the data.
A secondary manager cannot see an employees review, and therefore cannot see the managers comments in the review. The exception to this is if the secondary manager is also an indirect primary manager.
Indirect managers in the primary reporting line only, not the secondary reporting line, can see their indirect employees reviews via the Indirect Employee tab in the Reviews Management module. Clicking into the review, you will be able to see the manager's comments before they publish this data. They can also print their indirect employees' reviews, meaning they can print another manager's comments in this review.
Admins can download the CSV file of the review in the Review Periods module. In the CSV the comments will be visible, even if they are yet to publish this data. But if you click the Print button to print the review period details, then the overall rating will not be shown unless the manager has published their answers.
