Study Notes

Performance Evaluation Process

Members promoted to Captain and below with 2-month and 5-month evaluations do not need a third evaluation in a 12-month period.
The Annual Evaluation can be omitted in these instances.
The date in the member's personal record book (F-728) marks when the evaluation report was first forwarded.

Transfer Evaluations

Performance Evaluation Reports (F-1122 or F-1132) are required upon transfers of employees or raters.
Transfers do not require evaluations for EMS personnel if the District Captain is involved.
If a transfer is within 90 days of the annual evaluation date, it replaces the annual evaluation.
No transfer evaluation is needed if the transfer occurs within 9 months after the last annual evaluation, unless an interim evaluation is warranted.
Raters supervising members for only 3-5 months are encouraged to consult previous supervisors.

Fire Suppression Certification Evaluations

Firefighter/Paramedics completing the Fire Suppression Academy undergo monthly evaluations using Form F-1122 for 8 months.
Evaluations are submitted on the first shift of each month to relevant Battalion Offices.
An "unsatisfactory" overall rating requires a F-225 report detailing specific observations and reasons for the rating, accompanied by the F-1122.

Probationary Firefighter Evaluations

Probationary Reports (F-1142) are submitted every 30 days after 8 shifts of supervision.
If a commanding officer is unavailable, the Battalion Commander will appoint someone else for the evaluation.
Satisfactory performance is the evaluation standard for probationary personnel.
Reports are kept at the Battalion Level until the 10th month's report is submitted.
Battalion Commanders must send all required reports 45 days before the probationary period ends.

Handling Unsatisfactory Performance

An F-225 report should be submitted to the Fire Chief if a probationary firefighter is recommended for termination or if performance becomes unsatisfactory.
Include all relevant F-1142 reports with the F-225.

Forms Used in Evaluations

F-1122: Member's Performance Report for ranks below Captain.
F-1132: Officer's Performance Report.
F-1142: Report for Probationary Firefighters.
Performance evaluations are due 45 days before the member's anniversary date, which is based on training appointment or previous rank.

Exceptions to Evaluation Requirements

If evaluated within 6 months of the anniversary date, an Annual Performance Evaluation is not required.
Performance Evaluations are still necessary for longevity or sixth step advancements, regardless of prior evaluations.
