| New guidance is now
available for businesses to help them
manage the performance of their workforce
more effectively. With statistics
showing that poor performance was raised
as an issue in nine out of ten
disciplinary hearings*, employment service
Acas had produced the How to manage
performance guide.
It provides advice on how businesses
can set objectives with their employees,
including drawing up an effective personal
development plan, and is designed to help
businesses build engaged, productive
teams, improve communication and give
employees a clear understanding of where
they fit into the business and the skills
and competencies needed to fill their
role.
John Taylor, Acas chief executive says:
“The new guidance from Acas illustrates
that managing performance is central to
the relationship between managers and
employees as well as key to maintaining a
productive workplace.
“It also gives employers a chance to
monitor performance, develop skills and
give employees the chance to express
themselves.”
