Performance management strategies are at the top end of multiple approaches to assessing employee effectiveness. One of these techniques is ‘Self-assessment,’ which affords employees more freedom and control over their evaluation. Implementing this technique in the annual, quarterly, or monthly review process can help you build a skillful, motivated, and proficient workforce.

 

What is employee Self-assessment?

 

Self-assessments are an in-depth personal analysis of an employee’s performance, giving their employers a window into their priorities and preferences. It is an opportunity for employees to reflect on their achievements, learnings, strengths, and weaknesses and create an open conversation with their supervisor about goals.

 

The singular purpose of employee self-analysis is to provide autonomy to the workforce and make the review and appraisal process bilateral. It discourages micromanagement at the workplace, which is a suffocating drain on productivity. Employees who self-evaluate and are free to choose their own path for development are happier, more committed, productive, and loyal. They feel heard and become receptive to feedback from their managers.

 

Despite its importance, drafting a professional and comprehensive Self-assessment form becomes challenging when employees don’t know where to start. As an HR manager, you must provide a clear and concise self-assessment format to ease the process and encourage your staff to provide the most accurate responses.
