Now starts the problem of following-up and ensuring that employees \/ managers complete these performance appraisal activities on time!\u00a0 While some employees might voluntarily try and complete the performance appraisals on time, for others it may need a lot of follow-up from HR to make them complete the appraisals on time.<\/p>\n<p>There may be several reasons why the employees\/managers don\u2019t complete the appraisals on time.\u00a0 Some common reasons might be:<\/p>\n<p>1)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Employees might be quite busy or occupied with their work, that they don\u2019t get enough time to complete the performance appraisals.<\/p>\n<p>2)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The performance appraisal process \/ appraisal forms might be complex that the employees might need help in doing it.<\/p>\n<p>3)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Some employees might be natural procrastinators, and so would be delaying the completion.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever may be the reason for the delay, HR ultimately has to take the responsibility to make sure that all employees complete the performance appraisals on time. One important tool in the hands of HR is to send constant reminders to employees, reminding them of the due date of completion of the performance appraisal.\u00a0 Sometimes, framing and sending these reminder emails to the relevant people for completion of the performance appraisal might require a lot of efforts from the HR team.<\/p>\n<p>Synergita, a <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.synergita.com\/2013\/03\/why-wait-when-you-can-appreciate-now\/\">continuous<\/a> performance management software, has an excellent reminder email feature built into it! \u00a0HR can set email templates or content for the reminder mails for different activities.\u00a0 They can also set up frequency in which these reminder emails have to trigger and also the recipient(s) and sender details. \u00a0HR can also configure when and to whom the escalations should happen. (Escalation mails are generally configured to be sent department head \/management, in case the employees or managers fail to complete the appraisal after the due date, even after multiple reminders).<em id=\"__mceDel\"><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Once the reminders are configured in Synergita, HR can now, definitely sit back and relax!
