Example conversation

You: We need a performance management policy—appraisal, feedback, and managing poor performance—for HIQA Theme 6.

Agent: I’ll use the NSSBH Theme 6 reference. I’ll draft a policy covering: objectives and standards; appraisal cycle and process; feedback and development; managing poor performance and capability; fairness and consistency; recording; and links to training and supervision. I’ll keep performance and wellbeing support distinct.

Performance management policy excerpt

Appraisal — All staff have an annual appraisal. Objectives are set and reviewed. Feedback is ongoing. Appraisal discussion covers: achievement of objectives; development needs; and support required. Outcomes are recorded and used for training and succession planning.

Poor performance — Where performance does not meet standards, the process is: [e.g. informal discussion; improvement plan; formal process if no improvement]. Timelines and support are clear. The focus is on improvement and fairness.
