Question

Sharon, a student worker in a college food service location, has just received her first performance appraisal. Her manager told her that her cleaning and sweeping skills were excellent, but that she needed to show up to work on time and follow the regulations for lunch hours, breaks, personal phone calls, and calling out sick. Her performance will be evaluated again in 30 days. What was the outcome of this appraisal process?

Answer 1

Answer: Sharon's manager initiated immediate corrective action

Explanation: Sharon, who received excellent grades for cleaning performance, failed to comply with certain regulations such as showing up on time and some of the rules for lunch, etc., which means that Sharon must correct certain work behaviours in a timely manner. This means that until her performance is re-evaluated, where it will be in 30 days, she has to adjust it, which is immediate corrective action. It is an action that is determined, as in this example, by directors, managers, etc., and it is immediate because corrections must be made in the short term. Immediate corrective action takes place on the spot in response to certain irregularities in the workplace and corrects those irregularities and aligns the performance of the workers with a way that is consistent with the company policy.
