With employment confirmation or promotion, every employee will be given job objectives which detail the requirements and expectations of the position for which the employee was hired. Web Access will measure your job performance against these objectives. The reporting supervisor shall review and discuss the objectives with the employee.

Performance reviews are normally conducted half yearly. All performance reviews are based on merit, achievement, job description fulfillment and performance at your position. Annual wage increases will be based upon these reviews, as well as past performance improvement; dependability; attitude; cooperation; any necessary disciplinary action; adherence to all employment policies; and your position in your salary range. When you are promoted to a higher level position, you are automatically eligible for an increase as directed by the salary range of that position.
