5.9.1 Performance Review Process
During an introductory period, job performance should be reviewed continually. A formal review should be conducted at the end of the period. See, Introductory Period Performance Review. For most positions
in the archdiocese the introductory period is 90 days. In certain
instances the introductory period may be longer or shorter as the job or
performance requires. After the introductory period, staff should be
reviewed at regular intervals. Special performance reviews may be
conducted at any time, as circumstances warrant.
A formal performance review process serves to:
Document performance in relation to reasonable job expectations and standards
Determine how the employee might improve work performance
Evaluate career opportunity and development
Achieve a closer working relationship between the employee and employer
Set goals and timetables for projects supporting the location's mission statement or values
See the Introductory Period Performance Review, Employee Annual Performance Review
