You have several opportunities to evaluate new associates -- at 30, 60, 80, and 90 days of service. The 30, 60, and 80-day reviews measure associate effectiveness in a new role. The 90-day evaluation allows both the manager and the associate to give open-ended narrative responses.

The 30, 60, and 80-day reviews are strongly recommended. Keep the completed reviews as a reference when completing the next. 

The 90-day review is a mandatory part of the associate's personnel file. 

Document all performance issues and contact your HRC for guidance. Work with your upline manager to develop action plans and narrative statements.
