Italy: A joint appraisal system with performance criteria

In a decree enforcing provisions of the so-called “Madia Act” reforming the Italian administration, the conditions were laid out for a new joint appraisal system to take effect at the start of 2018. Government agencies and civil servants will be appraised on an annual basis. Performance reports and individual job appraisal interviews must be correlated in terms of both the goals set and the results achieved.
