Performance Evaluation

A.        The University may at its discretion establish criteria, methods and procedures for evaluating the performance of TA/RAs. Such evaluations shall be based on the performance of duties and criteria communicated to the TA/RA by the University. The criteria, methods and procedures of the evaluation shall not be subject to the grievance and arbitration procedures in this Agreement. 

B.         If the University chooses to establish criteria, methods and procedures for evaluating the performance of TA/RAs, the University shall provide notice of such criteria, methods and procedures within the first month of appointment to affected TA/RAs, and upon request, to Union representatives.       

C.         Such evaluations may be utilized for corrective action and/or for professional development. 

D.        Evaluations will be discussed with the TA/RA, and a record of such evaluation will be signed by both the University’s representative and the TA/RA and placed in the TA/RA’s personnel file. This signing shall not be deemed to constitute approval by the TA/RA. The TA/RA is entitled to attach any written comment or refutation the TA/RA deems appropriate to the evaluations and is entitled to a copy of the evaluation. Evaluations shall not be shared outside the University without the written permission of the TA/RA, except as required by law.
