Off-Cycle reviews are performance reviews that specifically tell an employee how they would be rated at a specific time in the cycle that is not the annual performance appraisal. They include transfer, employee requested, management driven, and other summary performance appraisals that are used to help keep the employee on track with meeting their goals and clearly state their current rating.
These will be entered as PROGRESS NOTES.
The ‘Probationary Quarterly Review’ is a required Off-Cycle review for new employees (probationary and time limited). The manager/supervisor must conduct quarterly performance reviews during the first 12 months of employment.
If the performance plan has not been established by Oct. 1 for a probationary or time limited employee, during the employee’s first performance appraisal cycle, then the employee shall have an extended performance cycle and shall receive a first annual performance appraisal at the end of the next cycle.
