Our Unique Approach

Section 1:

Capture of biographical and administrative data.

(Employee’s name and the date the form was actioned or completed.)

Traditional

Weakness:

Completely manually when either using a pen on a paper form or keying in the details for a e-paper (on-line) form.

Neos HR approach

Solution:

Start with an appropriate data base containing all the biographical data. Now when you open the e-paperless form (user interface), this section will prepopulate

Section 2:

Assessment using criteria and a rating scale.

(Such as “quality of work” assessed against a scale from (say) “unacceptable” to “exceeds expectations”.)

Traditional

Weakness:

The rating scale used for the assessment is highly subjective, with individual managers rating the same criterion differently

Neos HR approach

Solution:

Replace the assessment rating scale with behavioural anchored rating statements. This approach of simply selecting from pre-determined behavioural descriptors dramatically increases the consistency of the assessment

Section 3:

The recommendation.

(Sometimes this step is contained in a separate report)

Traditional

Neos HR approach

Weakness:

Is independent, and often inconsistent with the assessment. For example, a manager may rate an employee “satisfactory” for three out of five criterion and then recommend an overall rating of “less than average”.

Solution:

Develop an algorithm to automatically create the recommendation. For example, perhaps you set a minimum of four-out-of-five “satisfactory” assessments before the overall recommendation is deemed “satisfactory”.

Section 4:

The decision.

Traditional

Neos HR approach

Weakness:

Often requires multiple signatures, requiring the paper form to physically move from person to person.

Solution:

Allow all decision makers access to the data base so they can electronically review the assessment and recommendation, then make a decision by clicking a hyperlink-button.
