Completing an Employee's Evaluation

The employee evaluation is how a manager can review their employees in Folks. Here you will learn how to evaluate your employees, review the evaluation criteria, add comments and goals, and save or submit the reviews. Follow the instructions to successfully carry out this essential human resources management process.

In the employee evaluation form, you will find the following elements:

• Evaluator's Toolbox
• Overall Rating (if requested)
• Supervisor's Evaluation
• Goal(s) Set by the Supervisor
• Evaluator's Comments
• Attachments

The form will only be valid once finalized by the evaluator, once they have clicked the Submit button. The form will then be converted into a result that can be viewed by clicking on the employee's ellipse.
