The performance planning and review process is intended to assist
supervisors to review the performance of staff during a given period (at least annually)
and develop agreeed performance plans based on workload agreements
and the strategic direction of Hardly Normal<sup>TM</sup>.
<br/>
The Performance Planning and Review system covers both results (what was accomplished),
and behaviours (how those results were achieved). The most important aspect
is what will be accomplished in the future and how this will be
achieved within a defined period. The process is continually woking towards
creating improved performance and behaviours that align and contribute
to the mission and values of Hardly Normal <sup>TM</sup>.
