Performance management

Employers should recognise that during employment, an employee’s capability to carry out their duties may deteriorate. This can be for a number of reasons, the most common being either the job changes and the employee fails to keep pace with the changes or the employee changes and can no longer cope with the work.

Employers should also recognise the difference between capability issues and a deliberate or careless failure on the part of an employee to perform to the standards of which they are capable. In such cases, this would be a disciplinary matter rather than capability.
