Performance Communication and Development (PCD) Announcements
FY08 PCD Checklists are due in Human
Resources by June 1, 2008.
The time has come to prepare and submit your
FY08 PCD checklists. Last year, the PCD
process yielded excellent response and
participation from the campus community and
we look forward to another great year. All
regular staff employees, who have completed
their initial probationary period, should
receive a formal performance review
annually. We do not have details of the
merit budget at this time, but more
information will be made available in the
near future.
Some things to remember when completing and
preparing PCDs in your area:
• PCD is a year round process that prompts
two-way communication between supervisor and
employee.
• Use the PCD process to:
o Set and measure goals
o Encourage performance improvement
o Identify training and development
opportunities
• Meet with your employee to thoroughly
explain and discuss PCD results.
• Have employee sign all required fields of
the form during your final discussion with
them; do not submit the PCD to them at a
later time without your presence.
• Provide your signature in the presence of
employee during the final discussion.
• Provide required documentation for all
employees who receive “exceeds expectations”
or “needs improvement.”
• If a merit pool is provided, employees who
“exceed expectations” should receive a
higher merit increase than other employees
would receive with a “meets expectations”
rating.
• Do not discuss PCD results with anyone who
is not directly involved in the final review
or approval process.
Human Resources is committed to ensuring
leaders are satisfactorily trained to
utilize the PCD. Training for supervisors
will be conducted by our HR Generalists in
partnership with staff council and other
campus representatives. The training will be
available
here as
scheduled classes
and tailored sessions for departments as
needed.
Your HR Generalist can address any questions
or concerns you may have about the PCD
process. Please visit the HR website for
more information and to download the
PCD forms.
