The "Require Employee Sign-Off on Manager Evaluation" workflow for evaluations allows your employees to sign off on manager evaluations at their leisure, allowing a smooth experience for both the employee and manager. To help you understand what is expected to happen to address any issues or questions, we have listed the workflow below.
What Happens
- The Evaluation is created, and the "Require Employee Sign-Off on Manager Evaluation" option is enabled.
- An admin or manager assigns the evaluation to the employee.
- The employee completes their self-evaluation and signs with their PIN on their respective device.
- The evaluation is sent to the employee’s manager.
- The manager completes the evaluation and signs with their PIN on their respective device.
- The evaluation is sent back to the employee’s “Evaluations Due” tab for acknowledgment.
- The employee will receive a system-generated email stating that an evaluation is waiting for their acknowledgment. The system will send the email to the employee's primary email as entered in Arcoro Talent Management.
- The employee will see the same evaluation view they used for their self-evaluation, but populated with the manager’s completed ratings and comments.
- Employee opens the evaluation, reviews it, and signs with their PIN.
- Evaluation returns to the manager for a final sign-off.
- After the manager finalizes the evaluation, it moves to the "Completed" tab for both the employee and the manager.
Current vs. Previous Workflow
The current workflow will differ from the previous workflow, which required the employee to enter their PIN on the manager's device, requiring all parties to be present. The current workflow will allow the employee and manager to sign off on evaluations on their own respective devices.
- Any evaluation assigned after this release that has “Require Employee Sign-Off on Manager Evaluation” enabled will use the new workflow. This applies to both manually assigned and scheduled evaluations.
- For example, if an evaluation was scheduled on April 1 and the new workflow is released on April 30, any assignment generated by that schedule on or after April 30 will use the new sign-off workflow.
- Evaluations already in progress at the time of the release continue to follow the previous workflow through finalization to avoid disrupting in-flight reviews.
