Assign reviewer(s) to a Performance Review

ClayHR allows you to choose the number and type of reviewers for any particular performance review. Possible layers of assessment (“Assignment type”):

  • Self review
  • Supervisor – Manager
  • Supervisor – Manager’s Manager
  • Supervisor – Head of Org. Unit
  • Peer
  • Direct Report
  • Other
  • External Reviewer – for individuals outside of the organization

To assign and notify reviewer(s) for a Performance Review, follow these steps:

  1. Hover over the "Performance" icon in the left menu, then select “Performance Reviews”.
  1. Click on “All Reviews”.
  1. Only reviews with the following status admit new or more reviewers: “In Draft”, “No Reviewers Assigned”, “Scheduled”, “In Progress” and “Ready to Consolidate”
  1. Click on the User name whose performance review is being sent to reviewers.
  2. Click on “Add Reviewer” to make the following choices:
  • Reviewers
    • Based on role: manager, manager’s manager, head of org. unit, peer, self review, or direct report (Assignment Type)
    • By name.
  • Due Date: You can design a different performance review process/flow:
    • Sequential: where different reviewers have different due dates. A typical example would be: self-review first; then the manager, and lastly the manager’s manager.
    • Parallel: all reviewers have the same due date.
    • Combination of both: A typical example would be: self-review and peers with one due date, followed by the manager, and then the manager’s manager
  • Notifications to reviewers. You can:
    • “Notify now”
    • Defer the launch of the review and schedule the notifications to reviewers at a later date
  • Visibility options for the names of reviewers and the content of their assessment before the publication of results
