Employee Assessment

The job evaluation interview allows the employer toassess professional skills of the employee.

In principle, the assessment interview takes place every year, but the employer may provide for a different frequency (every 6 months, for example).

The appraisal interview is a time of exchange between the employer and the employee.

It makes it possible to take stock of the year (analysis of the missions carried out, possible difficulties for example), to set the objectives and the means to be implemented for the coming period.

In the exercise of its power of direction, the employer can set up assessment interviews, but that's not a requirement.

If the device is installed in the company, all employees must benefit from it.

However, the employer must inform and consult the ESC: titleContent front their implementation.

After consulting the EESC, the employer must inform employees of the methods and techniques of professional evaluation used before their introduction.

Information for employees may be individual or collective (e.g. by display).

The assessment tools and methods chosen should only allow the assessment of the work done by the employee.

Evaluation criteria should be precise, objectives and verifiable. They must not be discriminatory, or generate stress at work.

Personal data may be collected as part of the employee's assessment, if the employee has been notified in advance.

If the personal data collected is recorded in a computer file, they are protected under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

The employer must inform the employee of the date of his interview sufficiently early so that he can prepare this one. The summons may be oral, but it is preferable to summon the employee in writing.

During the interview, the information requested by the employer must have a direct link with the assessment of the employee's professional skills.

The refusal of the employee may be sanctioned by the employer.

These decisions can be a salary increase, a professional development (promotion for example) but also a disciplinary sanction up to dismissal.
