Public Employee Evaluation: Issues and Recommendations for Change
September 21, 2025
The failure to change mindsets and the lack of compliance with evaluation rules are the main reasons for the persistence of excellent public employees. In 2024, the average score is 9.01, compared to 8.747 in 2023. This trend reflects the failure of the evaluation system, as supervisors tend to give excessively generous scores. Legislative changes have also diminished the importance of evaluations in employee promotions. Ultimately, good employees are negatively affected by the current evaluation system.
