Performance Appraisals. When a formal appraisal of an employee's performance is carried out, the employee shall be given the opportunity to read and review the appraisal. Provision shall be made on the appraisal form for an employee to sign it. The form shall provide for the employee's signature in two places: one indicating that the employee has read and accepts the appraisal, and the other indicating that the employee disagrees with the appraisal. The employee shall sign in only one of the places provided. The employee who disagrees with the appraisal and so signifies in the appropriate place, shall have the right to amplify the reasons for any objections in writing, and such amplifications shall be attached to and become part of that appraisal. No employee may initiate a grievance regarding the contents of an appraisal form unless the signature indicates disagreement with the appraisal. Employees who sign a performance appraisal as agreeing with it are nonetheless entitled to have any comments attached to and become part of the appraisal. An employee shall, upon request, receive a copy of this appraisal form. An employee appraisal shall not be changed after an employee has signed it without the knowledge of the employee.
