How to Pass an Employee Evaluation

An employee evaluation is a tool used by employers to assess the performance of each employee. This evaluation is typically done on a yearly basis, and most employers use a scoring method for each duty performed by the employee. Employee evaluations are typically associated with an employee's yearly salary increase and should be taken seriously. To pass your employee evaluation, you should consider your performance throughout the year.

Suggestions

1. Understand your job description and responsibilities. Job descriptions are developed and revised collaboratively by human resources and your supervisor to give a standard of performance for your job, and are used to evaluate your performance. If you do not have a copy of your job description, ask your supervisor for an updated copy. From time to time, review your job description and responsibilities to ensure you're accomplishing all the duties listed. If you have taken on additional responsibilities not currently listed on your job description, add those responsibilities and inform your supervisor of those additional duties during your review.
2. Record all of your accomplishments that add value, improve processes or increase revenue for your employer. Any improvements in your job responsibilities that may increase your employer's profitability should be noted and addressed during your evaluation. This can include any reports you've created to assist your supervisor with her responsibilities, or any suggestions you've made and were considered to improve the overall function of your job and how the organization operates.
3. Keep correspondence from your supervisor related to your achievements in your job. This should be included in your employee evaluation. If the correspondence was sent via a memo or email in regards to your performance, whether good or derogatory, it should be kept on file to be looked at during your evaluation. Derogatory performance should be noted because you may have improved your performance during your evaluation period. Good performance should be noted because it shows you are willing to do what it takes to reach your employer's goals.
4. Listen carefully and give feedback during your evaluation. Your supervisor will explain the evaluation and go over each section with you. If you have any questions--ask. If you do not agree with an assessment your supervisor made, ask for examples for clarification. Provide examples of your achievements to your supervisor. Almost everyone will have areas for improvement in their job, but by being engaged during your evaluation, your supervisor will see you're a dedicated employee. Your supervisor is also more likely to change an evaluation if you understand, listen and provide examples that show you achieved what your expectations were for your job responsibilities.
5. Ask for a copy of your evaluation for your records. Your employee evaluation is added to your permanent employee records. Use it as a tool to improve your performance, which will improve your next evaluation.

Tips

• If you feel your evaluation was unfair, contact your human resources representative to discuss your evaluation in more detail.
• Never expect a perfect evaluation. There is always room for improvement.
