Linda Hynes, Head of the Employment Team at Ogier Leman writes a quarterly feature for Legal-Island email subscribers providing handy precedents and checklists for subscribers to download and use.

Performance management can be a divisive topic. When used correctly, it can  be a very useful tool to align an employer’s organisational objectives with the employees’ agreed skills, competencies, and targets for the delivery of results. However, it does come under a lot of criticism, particularly by employees who view it as an attempt by the employer to manage them out when they are no longer required – whether or not this might be the case.

This quarter Linda has prepared a handy checklist for employers and HR teams to download to help guide them through the minefield of Performance Management from start to finish.
