How will PDR link to performance assessment of probationers?
A national system for appraising probationers at Force is being developed at present and the Scottish Police College have begun using a similar system for their probationers. In the meantime, probationers at Force will continue to be assessed as per existing arrangements and will link into the normal PDR process at the end of their probation period. Q: How will someone in a temporary rank be assessed? A: Staff in a temporary rank or grade will be assessed in that role. Depending on the period of their temporary role, this may be reviewed exclusively, or as part of a wider review of their combined performance. In both cases, it is important that their personal objectives are revised and updated when they commence any temporary position.
