How will feedback at the end of the year be handled?
• Feedback is an essential element in the DCIPS performance management process and will help to make employees more aware of how their performance is being evaluated. Meaningful dialogue throughout the evaluation period is encouraged and the midpoint review is an excellent opportunity to reinforce employee strengths and correct weaknesses. After the appraisal has been approved by the reviewing official and Performance Management (PM) Performance Review Authority (PRA), the rating official will discuss the final evaluation of record and performance for the year with the employee. The rating official should be prepared to discuss the employees accomplishments, as well as any areas that may be deficient or need attention, and use their own written narrative to explain the logic behind the rating.
