*IMPORTANT:
The appraisal process closes August 31st. There shall be no extensions to this date. If no appraisal is completed for a merit-eligible employee by August 31st, the performance rating will automatically default to ‘Meets Expectations.’ If an appraisal was started, but not complete, the system will capture the information ‘as-is’ and the appraisal will become final (ratings, narratives, goals) on August 31st.
Department Heads may designate Department specific deadlines. Departmental deadlines may not interfere with the HR submission date, and must account for system close date.
