This is a performance appraisal employee final comments worksheet that turns the manager's closing paragraph into the figures the outcome letter and payroll need. The rating over the top of the scale is where the employee landed; the current salary at the merit percentage the company's matrix gives that rating is the increase; salary plus increase is the new salary; the increase over twelve is the monthly difference; and objectives set less met is what carries forward. Every figure is yours, the merit percentage above all; the worksheet publishes no matrix. Free, on the page, no account; the paid plan keeps every outcome against the employee and the period and exports it to payroll.
The rating, as a share of the scale
A rating of 4 on a five-point scale is 80% of the scale, and the final comments say why: which objectives were met, which exceeded, and what the manager saw that the count does not show. The worksheet returns the share so a four-point scale and a five-point one read the same way in calibration.
The merit increase, from the company's own matrix
The company's merit matrix says what a rating is worth, and the worksheet applies your figure: 4% of $62,000 is $2,480 a year, $206.67 a month, and a $64,480 salary. The percentage is yours; the worksheet publishes no matrix and no distribution, and a company with no matrix should write one before the cycle rather than during it.
Carried forward: the objective the next period opens with
Set less met is the objective that carries into the next period, one on the worked example, and the final comments should say what changes about it. The paid plan keeps the outcome and the carried objective against the employee so the next cycle's form starts where this one ended.
Performance appraisal employee final comments: common questions
What should final comments on a performance appraisal say?
The rating and the reason for it against the objectives, what was exceeded and what was missed, the outcome the rating carries, and the objectives for the next period. The worksheet on this site works the outcome's figures; the words are the manager's.
How is a merit increase calculated from a rating?
By the company's merit matrix, which gives each rating a percentage, applied to the current salary: 4% on $62,000 is $2,480. The worksheet takes the percentage as an input and publishes no matrix of its own; what each rating should be worth is the company's decision.
Is this a free appraisal outcome calculator?
Yes. Enter the rating, the scale, the salary, your merit percentage and the objectives set and met, and it works the rating as a share of the scale, the increase, the new salary, the monthly difference and the objectives carried forward on the page with no account and no card. Reviewvo Pro keeps every outcome against the employee and exports it to payroll.
