Performance reviews

All professional and academic staff (excluding casuals) are required to undertake regular performance reviews in accordance with the framework prescribed in clause 27 of the Flinders University Enterprise Agreement.  

The following tools and information have been developed to assist the supervisor and the staff member to effectively establish performance goals, identify any career development goals, and to provide the information required to be able to easily navigate how to capture this process in Work Day.

Academic staff performance reviews**

The PRD Framework for Academic Staff provides the basis for the supervisor and Academic to work together in assessing and developing performance objectives including:

• assist staff to develop academically and professionally and clarify performance expectations;
• assist the supervisor and academic to jointly plan the work required to achieve desired goals; and
• assist supervisors in monitoring and assessing an academic staff member’s performance and development goals.
