Preparing for a New Way to Evaluate Performance at UH

In 2009, Human Resources spent a considerable amount of time researching, analyzing and developing the use of an electronic performance management tool called ePerformance. UHS already owned the technology within PeopleSoft 8.9, we just needed to dedicate resources to activating the ePerformance module for use by managers and staff. HR made a commitment to provide managers with a better way to evaluate their staff and, at the same time, eliminate the paper intensive process of our annual performance reviews.

What is ePerformance?

ePerformance is an electronic method of performance management for benefits-eligible staff that is very user-friendly and will provide an opportunity for managers and direct reports to have an on-going dialogue related to performance throughout the evaluation period. The document follows workflow within PeopleSoft, therefore it is electronically routed until finalized and becomes part of the employee’s electronic personnel file.

How is it different from our traditional PCD?

ePerformance provides a way for the organization to communicate the mission and strategic initiatives to front line personnel. It allows a special focus on Customer Service being delivered at all levels of the organization. The performance tool is pre-loaded with the employee’s specific responsibilities directly from their job description. And by 2011, we will load competencies, which are behaviors demonstrated on the job, that are matched to your role. This will improve and enhance HR’s ability to deliver targeted training and development opportunities to managers and staff.
