Employee Performance Book

The core of Covalent EPM is the Employee Performance Book (EPB), containing the appraisal form with assessment questions and supporting employee profile information. Employees conduct a self-appraisal by rating how they have performed against each competency and job responsibility performance factor. Notes and supporting commentary can also be added against each score. The manager (and possibly other appraisers) complete an appraisal in a similar fashion. Results from the Employee Performance Management process can be compared side-by-side to identify discrepancies between the employee's and manager's perceptions.

Competencies

Configure a series of skills, traits, and attributes that map to an employee's job-specific competencies. Rate the employee's performance on each competency and add feedback comments. Similarly rate performance on responsibilities contained in employee's job description.

Goals

Record employee's developmental and operational goals/ objectives. Align with departmental and organisational goals in a Covalent Scorecard to provide individuals with clear view of how their work contributes to achieving the corporate strategy. Optionally, rate employee performance in achieving their goals.

Talent Profile

Review progress on other KPIs, Actions, Risks etc that the employee has responsibility for but that might not otherwise form part of the performance review. Consolidate information on the employee's work history, career goals, development plans etc as well as providing access to all prior assessments.
