APPENDIX C: ADDENDUM 
Policy 5227: Performance Management for Classified Employees

 ADDENDUM 
(to Performance Management for Classified Employees, 
Formerly Classified Employees Salary Administration Plan)
Relating to the Performance Management Process

V.     PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT PROCESS:

A. Salary Increases: No salary increases have been appropriated by the General Assembly for 2001 to date. If the General Assembly passes an increase later in the year, the University will award increases in a manner consistent with instructions from the General Assembly.

B. Evaluation Form: Institutional modifications to the standard state form are not substantive, but merely provide additional data fields to aid users in completing and accessing information on the form.

C. Optional Evaluation Factors: Attendance/punctuality, and safety have been added as additional performance factors.

D. Appraisal of the Employee: Supervisor's evaluation will be supplemented by an employee self-assessment. Three hundred sixty-degree (360) degree feedback will be implemented at a date yet to be identified, subsequent to the initial transition year for the instrument.

E. Appraisal of Team/Group: Longwood will not implement this aspect of the instrument.

F. Employee Feedback on Manager's Performance: The institution does not believe this to be a productive consideration. Supervisor's may engage in survey activities with employees in their units at their own volition and discretion, but not as a formal part of the Performance Management Process.

G. Interim Evaluations: Interim evaluations of both three (3) and six (6) months will be used following performance-related disciplines to augment the annual evaluation and provide a measuring tool for periodic progress. A six- (6) month interim evaluation will be used anytime a Classified employee changes roles. The Commonwealth's Interim Evaluation Form will be used for the initial year.
