Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is employee performance management?

Employee performance management is the process of providing feedback and guidance to staff to improve productivity. An employee’s performance is evaluated and compared against set goals to measure improvement. Performance reviews also identify an employee’s strengths and weaknesses so managers can determine career development and training needs. When employee performance is optimized, an organization’s strategic goals are achieved.

Employee performance management differs from performance management software, which automates an organization’s performance review process.

2. Why is managing employee performance important?

Managing employee performance is essential to an organization’s success and ability to achieve goals. Employee performance management boosts productivity and satisfaction. The more satisfied employees are in their roles, the longer and more engaged they stay.

3. What is performance management software?

Performance management software helps companies automate their employee review process. Ideally, it automates with your employee records database and ensures goal accountability. Tracking employee performance with software eliminates manual, paper-based processes.

The best employee performance management software options are part of a payroll and HR platform. This design provides an all-in-one approach to employee lifecycle management.

How does performance management software work? A typical process involves automation of the following steps:

  • Create a performance review template using ratings, questions, and weighted scoring.
  • Schedule a performance review for an employee.
  • Conduct the performance review and establish goals.
  • The employee conducts a self-review of their performance.
  • The manager and HR approve the review.
  • The employee and manager e-sign the performance review.

These steps are automated and tracked in the performance management software like APS, increasing accountability.
