The Village will conduct annual employee evaluations for all Village employees in May and
June, or at such other time as may be warranted to meet the business needs of the Village. All
employees will be evaluated. The management staff will use the evaluations to determine an
employee's annual potential salary adjustment based on a merit schedule established by th*
Village Manager annually during budget preparations and consistent with this policy.
Based on the results of the annual evaluation, the employee will receive a rating of
I ("Unacceptable"), 2 ("Needs Improvement"), 3 ("Fully Meets Expectations"), 4 ("Exceeds
Expectations"), or 5 ("Outstanding"). To ensure tested and consistent evaluation standards, staff
will employ an evaluation system that will:
Any employee receiving an overall evaluation score of Unacceptable (1) or Needs Improvement
(2) will be placed on a formal Performance Improvement Plan. The Performance Improvement
Plan will include a written statement prepared by the evaluator with the performance matters to
be addressed by the employee and a specific period in which a Special Evaluation shall occur.
