Employees Receiving Regular Performance and Career Development Reviews (OI0112)

This metric is intended to capture the number of employees who received a regular, routine performance and career development review during the reporting period. To qualify under this metric, reviews must be based on clear criteria understood by both the manager and employee, must occur with adequate notice to the employee, and must occur at least once per year. A review may—but is not required to—include an evaluation by the employee’s direct superior, their peers, a wider range of employees, or the human resources department, as well as the employee's own reflections on their quality of work.

This metric is sourced from Disclosure 404-3 in GRI 404: Training and Education 2016: Percentage of employees receiving regular performance and career development reviews.

Regular performance reviews support the professional development of employees, contribute to skills management, and build human capital within the organization. Such reviews can also increase employee satisfaction, which can improve organizational performance.

This metric may help describe the HOW MUCH Scale dimension, which helps estimate the number of the targeted stakeholders experiencing the outcome. For more on the alignment of IRIS metrics to the five dimensions of impact, see IRIS+ and the Five Dimensions of Impact (https://iris.thegiin.org/document/iris-and-the-five-dimensions/). No single metric is sufficient to understand an impact; rather, metrics are selected as a set across all dimensions of impact. The selection of metrics to measure and describe the five dimensions should be based on best practice and evidence.
