Can an agency ask for an exception to the signature of the next line supervisor on the performance plan?
There is no provision to request an exception to the next line supervisor’s review and signature on performance plans. Also the Personnel Cabinet does not have the authority to grant any agency such an exception. However, the next line supervisor may give his/her designee the approval to place the next line supervisor’s signature on employee performance plans. In this case the next line supervisor maintains the responsibility for ensuring that the plans are completed and that such plans are fair and equitable. After the supervisor and employee develop the duties and expectations, they sign off that the plan has been discussed. It is then signed by the next line supervisor. What if the next line supervisor does not agree? Do they pull rank over the supervisor and employee? Yes.

Keep in mind the performance plan does not technically have to be agreed upon by the employee. The eva
