As a manager, how can you monitor employees performance. 

Remember to reply to, two classmates post.  

Classmate 1:

 As a manager, you can monitor employee performance through various metrics such as  periodic job performance analysis or through a human resources information system which tracks progress of goals on the managerial and employee side. Job performance analysis may be surveys or outlined suggestions of what an employee should already be doing in their job and if they're doing it with proficiency. A human resources information system helps to track everything electronically and doesn't necessarily mean the manager and the employee need to work in close quarters in order to track the job performance. For example, a manager may set monthly goals and the employee is able to work with that in mind and those numbers will be shown at the end of the month or quarter. Managers may also directly ask how an employee feels about the job and their performance in their respective areas. 

Classmate 2:

Managers are able to monitor employees performance with employee performance reviews. In the modern-age workforce, almost all employers have a 90 day probation period before you begin receiving company benefits and a raise in hourly pay or salary. Within this quarter, managers monitor your performance and based on your review decide whether or not you are able to receive increase of pay and benefits. Managers can set short and long-term goals for employees to track their performance. This can help managers monitor an employees performance on reaching goals by a certain timeframe.
