Welcome to the gateway of professional growth and recognition.
Before embarking on the journey of completing your TSC Appraisal Report, dive into the following guidelines, meticulously crafted to ensure a fair and comprehensive assessment of your performance.
Preamble: Navigating Excellence
The TSC Staff Performance Appraisal is not just a routine evaluation; it’s a strategic tool designed to comprehensively and objectively gauge your job performance.
Understanding your role through the lens of job descriptions and requirements is crucial, as the information gathered here will shape training initiatives and unveil your potential for promotion.
Your appraisal report is more than a formality; it’s a compass guiding the trajectory of your career.
Accuracy is paramount, as the report is instrumental in determining training needs and assessing your eligibility for promotion.
All TSC Secretariat staff, except Commissioners and the Commission Secretary, fall under the purview of this assessment.
Defining the Players: Know Your Roles
- Appraisee: That’s you – the officer being assessed.
- Appraiser: Your immediate supervisor, holding the key to unlocking your potential.
- Countersigning Officer: The head of Unit/Section/Division/Department, validating the journey you’ve undertaken.
The Dance of Appraisal: A Step-by-Step Guide
- Appraisal Form Genesis: At the onset of the review period, you receive a copy of the appraisal form along with divisional/sectional performance targets. Your individual work plan, the cornerstone of your performance report, is crafted based on these targets.
- Duplication Drama: Complete the form in duplicate. Quarterly assessments, culminating at the end of the fourth quarter, shape the narrative. By July 31st annually, the original report dances its way to DSHRM, while the duplicate remains your companion.
