Performance Evaluations

DoubleR

I have a manager that reports to the CEO that is retiring in about two weeks. We have an automated systems that generates performance reviews two weeks prior to the due date. Does it make sense to ask the CEO to do a performance review for an individual that is retiring two weeks from now? If one contends that performance evaluations address past performance and future goals then this evaluation would fufill only 50 percent of its objective.

I see no value to the employee or utility to the company in doing one, so I would not.

You did not mention whether or not this EE would receive any kind of outgoing bonus based on performance. So, absent any monetary impact that is triggered from the review - I would agree, don't waste everyone's time.

I would treat this departing individual the SAME way you treat any other terminations. If a perf eval is done on the others, then do so with this person. Michael Jordan returned TWICE.........
It sounds as though someone is trying to avoid any addt'l effort in generating the eval, but if the employee is entitled to know what his past performance has been, then do it.

I'm on the side of doing it. Even though you said he is retiring, I would hate to not have anything, good or bad, to substantiate a year's worth of performance later on should I need it.
