Rating Scales

Support Staff


Overall Performance

During the annual review, the manager selects a rating that reflects the overall performance of the individual, considering achievement of job expectations and demonstration of competencies. Employees do not select an overall performance rating during the self-assessment.

This individual does not meet the job expectations or demonstrates the required competencies for the role. Inadequate or little progress has been made. Significant improvement is required immediately.  

This individual partially demonstrates the required skills and competencies expected for the role. Improvement is required to meet expectations.

This individual consistently demonstrates the required skills and competencies expected for the role and occasionally exceeded expectations.

This individual consistently achieves and frequently exceeds job expectations. They demonstrate a high level of capability on all core competencies.  


Goals and Expectations

This aspect of performance assessment considers job expectations (detailed in the job profile) and/or specific goals/expectations that were established for the year.

Introduced in the 2019/2020 performance year, expectations and goals are established and assessed using the online performance document. Employees and managers enter comments to describe progress made toward the actions and measurements that were defined. Ratings are not required.

For support staff without an online document, establishing goals/expectations using an offline goal setting template remains at the discretion of the manager.
