The 2023 annual evaluation process is underway for employees and managers to highlight the past year's accomplishments.

Facilities Management is following the University's suggested timelines, outlined below.

  • Now through Jan. 12: Employees compose and submit self-evaluations in Workday.
    • The self-evaluation summarizes the year's accomplishments, skills gained, and any areas where improvement has occurred. (Note, planned goals can be reviewed in the 2022 evaluation under the employee's performance section.)
    • Prepare for the upcoming year by identifying up to 5 items to focus on in 2024 (goals, priorities, development, etc.).
  • Jan. 13 – Feb. 9: Managers summarize team and individual performance highlights with Reviewer (manager's manager) and then draft evaluations on each employee, noting special achievements and constructive feedback for future success.
  • Feb. 10 – 23: Secondary reviewer/approver final engagement, including leadership reporting completed.
    • For University Staff: Manager shares details of drafted evaluations and ratings with the Reviewer for feedback and possible changes. Following agreement, managers complete and submit the appraisal and schedule one-on-one meetings with employees.
    • For Classified Staff: After managers submit the drafted evaluation, it routes to the Reviewer in Workday who provides additional feedback. After any necessary discussion or updates, the Reviewer sends the form forward.
  • By March 8: All manager one-on-one meetings with employees conducted, evaluations submitted, and employee acknowledgments completed in Workday.
