Sustainability Indicators
 

Principle 7:

Empower people and foster participation

Indicator LA12:

Percentage of employees receiving regular performance and career development reviews.


2006/2007 Data

Why use this indicator?

Employee performance reviews can improve the personal development of employees and contribute to skills management, the development of human capital and improved employee satisfaction. The percentage of employees receiving regular reviews demonstrates the extent to which the system is applied throughout an organisation.

This indicator will measure the extent to which regular employee performance and career development reviews are undertaken across Council.

What is the current situation?

777 Employee Performance Planning and Reviews (EPPR) were carried out in the 2007-2008 period.

145 Skill and Knowledge Assessments were completed in the 2007-2008 period.

There was an increase in the number of EPPR from 642 in 2006-2007 to 777 in the 2007-2008 period.

Council works to ensure all permanent staff complete an annual Employee Performance Planning and Review (EPPR) that assesses their performance for the last 12 months and sets out goals and training requirements for the next year. The EPPR process has also now been introduced to Temporary and Casual staff that meet certain criteria.

A separate Skills and Knowledge Assessment process is also available for staff.

What is the desired trend?

An increase in the number of staff completing an annual EPPR.

What does this mean for the Sustainability of Penrith Council?

Review of employee performance provides feedback to staff that can assist in career development and progression. Employee reviews can result in improved skill and knowledge base of employees thereby contributing to the advancement of Council.
