Common use of Observation Procedures Clause in Contracts

Observation Procedures. 9.4.1 Evaluations will be based on observations made in the employee’s primary working environment. Observation(s) is done by either a service of unscheduled (informal) drop-in visits or by a scheduled (formal) observation for the major portion of an entire period of instruction or equivalent duration. 9.4.2 If requested, by either the employee or the evaluator, a scheduled observation shall be preceded by a pre-observation conference where the employee and evaluator will discuss the objectives, strategies and expected outcomes of the observation. The employee or evaluator shall request this conference at least three (3) working days prior to the observation. 9.4.3 A post observation conference shall normally be held not more than ten (10) working days after the observation. When practicable, the evaluator should provide the employee with a draft copy of the observation prior to this conference. Mutual review of this draft provides an additional opportunity to ensure an accurate, comprehensive, and meaningful evaluation. If the conference is not held within ten (10) working days due to the unavailability of either the evaluator or employee, the employee has the option of accepting the observation as written or nullifying the observation and requesting a new observation. 9.4.4 If after discussing the observation with the employee, the evaluator determines that there is inaccurate information included in the report, the evaluator shall revise the report. After receiving the observation report, the employee may submit a written response to be included with the revised report. 9.4.5 If a teaching employee receives an unsatisfactory observation, the employee shall have the right to an additional observation in a different class subject or period which the employee is currently assigned to teach of the employee’s choice and/or an observation by a concurrent evaluator. Additional observations may occur on an as-needed basis. A teacher who receives an unsatisfactory observation shall be given specific written recommendations to help improve his/her performance. Unsatisfactory observations with performance areas needing improvement may result in an unsatisfactory summative evaluation. 9.4.6 If a non-teaching employee receives an unsatisfactory observation, the employee shall be given specific written recommendations to help improve his/her performance. The employee shall have the right to an additional observation in another job responsibility of the employee’s choice and/or an observation by a concurrent evaluator. Additional observations may occur on an as-needed basis. Unsatisfactory observations with performance areas needing improvement may result in an unsatisfactory summative evaluation.
