Can an employee appeal his or her final EPAP rating?
Yes. When possible, the employee and rating official should informally attempt to resolve any disagreement about the performance appraisal and/or rating. This informal discussion should take place within 7 calendar days of the employees receipt of the EPAP form, and the rating officials decision must be communicated to the employee either verbally or in writing, within 7 calendar days of the informal reconsideration discussion.
