Managers and HR professionals use an employee evaluation form to assess an employee's performance. Some also issue the form for employees to evaluate their own performance.
The form can be used for a mid-year performance review, quarter performance review, or annual review. Review forms are typically completed at the end of the year or at the end of each quarter, depending on your company's policy.

When creating an employee evaluation form, you want to include close-ended questions that can be measured quantitatively while giving the reviewer the option to leave additional feedback. Below are some examples of questions you can include in your employee evaluation form.
- Does the employee demonstrate a positive attitude in the workplace?
- Does the employee communicate effectively with team members?
- Does the employee consistently deliver the quality of work expected?
- Does the employee think critically to solve complex problems?
- Does the employee show up on time and follow company guidelines?
- Does the employee go above and beyond to help other team members?
- Is the employee a reliable member of the team?
-
An employee performance review form should include a standardized rating system, such as a numerical scale or a multiple choice response centered around whether the employee meets expectations, does not meet expectations, or exceeds expectations.
Having an objective, standardized format for several key questions will make it easy to structure the data. It should also contain quantitative details to refer to when determining whether to promote or terminate an employee.
In addition, you should give room for written feedback that allows the reviewer to provide additional details and examples in support of their other responses.
-
When creating a management evaluation form, you should include questions that focus on different areas than those targeted at employees who do not manage staff.
For example, you can ask about the manager's ability to set and achieve goals, give feedback, develop direct reports, handle conflict, etc. You should request that the manager’s supervisors assess them in all of these areas.
