Personnel Evaluation
To successful bar Ms. Smith from taking a step that might severely hurt her and also ruin the reputation of the University General Hospital, I would hold a meeting with her to explain the criteria used for initiating employee training and promotion. By the end of the session, Ms. Smith would have recognized that employee training is rarely awarded based on the preference of an individual but is initiated in areas where the organization feels incapacitated. The training is offered irrespective of the gender of the person working in those sections. Ms. Smith would equally recognize that promotions are awarded to individuals with an outstanding score in the employee evaluation report. Employees who get promoted often demonstrate high levels of discipline, commitment, and compliance with work ethics.
The employee evaluation report plays critical roles in various circumstances, and solving this controversy is just one of them. It contains information about the performance of every person in the organization. The facts covered within the report can be used to select the workers who need additional education and training; to set performance goals for the company, and to single out those employees who require recognition and awards. Employees who perform their duties optimally and receive higher rating scores from their supervisors are the most likely ones to receive company awards, honor, and promotion.
To mitigate the issue raised by Ms. Smith, I would seek the views of other female employees through a questionnaire about how the organization offers its training and promotions. This information-seeking exercise would enable me to ascertain if the highlighted problem exists or not. In the next phase, I would explain to the entire group the procedure used for giving on-job training and awarding promotions to eliminate the notion of bias and discrimination. Lastly, I would state some of the consequences an employee would face if they decide to take uncensored measures against the organization without accurate facts and information to limit the emergence of such issues in the future.
