Performance Reviews for UA Employees
All performance reviews are based on a January-December cycle. Staff Performance ReviewsPerformance reviews are completed directly in Workday for staff. Performance review templates will pull in responsibilities from the “position restrictions”. Core competencies have been developed at the University of Arkansas System level with input from campus representatives. Core competencies are detailed below. Goals can be set by the manager for the review period. Prior to completing the performance review, supervisors should ensure that the employee’s position information, including job responsibilities, are up to date. To view or update the job duties and other position information, the supervisor can navigate to the employee’s Workday page, click on the position, click on “Position Restrictions,” and select the “Qualifications” tab. If job responsibilities are missing or need updating, the Position Restrictions will need to be edited by the supervisor. This will then go through an approval process in Workday. Performance ratings for staff are on a five-point scale, displayed below. The rating scale was developed with input and guidance from subject matter experts representing our campus and across University of Arkansas System member institutions and has been approved by the Arkansas Department of Higher Education (ADHE). Performance reviews for staff are currently based 100% on the performance of job responsibilities. Performance Review Rating Scale
