Self Assessment Evaluation
A self assessment evaluation gathers feedback from the employee about his/her own effectiveness on the job. Self-evaluation can yield information that's just as helpful to the company as 360 degree feedback from peers and supervisors, especially when it comes time for performance reviews and compensation adjustments. It also allows the employee an important opportunity to examine his or her own contributions and open up a dialog with management.
The Role of Self-Evaluation in Performance Management
The importance of the self assessment evaluation lies in how much it reveals about the unique, personal perceptions of the individual staff member – perceptions that others in the department or company may not be aware of but that can offer valuable insight to HR staff as they conduct the performance management process.
The self-evaluation combined with 360 degree feedback and any other assessment tools allow the employee and supervisor to work together to set goals for employee development and career planning.
What Is Revealed By Self Assessment Evaluations
The self assessment evaluation will comprise a series of questions relating to how the staff member feels he/she performed during a set time period.
The questions will differ depending on the job function but may include areas such as:
- goal completion
- coworker relations,
- willingness to learn new skills / take on new challenges,
- problem-solving abilities,
- work attendance record,
- leadership abilities, and more.
Often the self-evaluation form will display a multiple choice rating scale after each question to express the level of success the employee feels he/she has attained -- for example "below expectations", "meets expectations" and "exceeds expectations".
