The following three minor changes have been made to the PMD policy: 1) The policy has been revised to modify the titles of the overall rating options to: ‘Successfully meets performance expectations’ and ‘Does not fully meet performance expectations.’ The definitions of the ratings were updated to capture that ‘Successfully meets performance expectations’ refers to instances where the individual meets all or most of the performance expectations. 2) The policy updates also include updating the TMRG (Talent Management Review Group) to TMC (Talent Management Committee). 3) Lastly, the policy has ...

If the person reports to the Head of Office, then the Head of Office will provide the final endorsement. EXPAND

The Performance Management and Development policy was amended to include reference to the Probation upon Appointment policy, which will apply to initial appointments of more than one year. |

Following the approval by the Administrator of the decision to implement two-year renewal cycles for Fixed-Term Appointments, BMS/OHR is introducing a supporting measure to ensure that all new staff on initial fixed term appointments of more than one year are subject to a probation period prior to being confirmed in their positions. The probationary period will allow UNDP to manage the relationship more flexibly, so that managers can address problems, if any, before confirming a new staff member into a two-year appointment.

Following the approval by the Administrator of the decision to implement two-year renewal cycles for Fixed-Term Appointments, BMS/OHR is introducing a supporting measure to ensure that all new staff on initial fixed term appointments of more than one year are subject to a probation period prior to being confirmed in their positions. The probationary period will allow UNDP to manage the relationship more flexibly, so that managers can address problems, if any, before confirming a new staff member into a two-year appointment. Furthermore, it focuses managers’ attention on the first year of employment of a new staff member so that they provide the clear guidance which underpins a successful start in a new position in UNDP. Under the proposed policy, the probation period will give managers the opportunity to assess new staff members on the job, over a period of 10 months before deciding to either confirm or terminate the appointment. In certain circumstances, the probationary period can also be extended for up to 6 months. The policy is effective as of 1 March 2021. EXPAND

The revision of the policy on PMD is part of a more comprehensive effort to improve the quality of talent management in UNDP and, as such, is closely linked to a series of other initiatives related to performance management (e.g. a new programme on reward and recognition), career management (e.g. talent interviews), succession (e.g. staff selection for key roles) and learning and development.

The Policy aims to foster the culture of high
performance through making performance management an integral part of every-day
work. It encourages more frequent
interactions/communication between staff and managers on performance and
shifting the focus from compliance with annual milestones to higher quality
performance conversations. |

The former Rebuttal policy was retired and is now incorporated into the Performance Management policy on 1 February 2017. |
