almost all key aspects of the position. Both what
is produced and how it is produced are below
Emory standards and clearly unacceptable.
Unless there is obvious and immediate
improvement, earning this rating should cause
Emory and the employee to seriously consider
whether continued employment is appropriate. A
performance improvement plan and review by HR
is required.
2. Needs improvement: The employee
demonstrates adequate performance in most
areas, but needs improvement in one or more
significant aspects that are critical to the position.
Either what is produced or how it is produced
require improvement in one or more areas to meet
expectations of the position and Emory. Such
performance shortfalls may be attributable to
newness on the job, missing or undeveloped skills,
and/or experience. Regardless, this rating
conveys that performance is below expectations in
one or more areas and must be improved. A
performance improvement plan and review by HR
is required.
3. Meets expectations: The employee consistently
demonstrates capable, or satisfactory,
performance. Both what is produced and how it is
produced meet Emory standards and expectations
of the position. The employee is a dependable,
competent, knowledgeable individual who meets
and occasionally exceeds expectations of the
position. This rating conveys solid, effective
performance.

or almost all competencies, skills and
responsibilities. Both what is produced and how it
is produced meet and often exceed Emory
standards and expectations of the position.
Results add value beyond the scope of the current
role, often benefiting the division/department.
Examples of these results must be given to
receive this rating. This rating should be reserved
for employees with strong, commendable
performance.
5. Far exceeds expectations: The employee
regularly demonstrates superior performance.
Both what is produced and how it is produced far
exceed Emory standards and expectations of the
position. The employee is extraordinarily
competent and productive. Performance at this
level occurs throughout the year and across all
key aspects of the position. This employee is
often sought out by others for counsel and
assistance, and is widely recognized as a role
model. Examples of the results and sought after
expertise must be given to receive this rating.
This rating should be used sparingly and reserved
for truly outstanding performance throughout the
review period.
