Written Question
Performance Appraisal
Monday 30th June 2014

Asked by: Emma Lewell (Labour - South Shields)

Question to the Northern Ireland Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, what proportion of (a) disabled and (b) all other staff employed by her Department received each level of performance rating in their end of year performance assessment for 2013-14.

Answered by Theresa Villiers

There are currently 3 members of staff, three percent of the workforce, employed by my Department who are declared disabled, and who received a performance assessment for 2013/14. Given the small numbers involved, it would not be appropriate to provide any further breakdown as to do so would risk the identification of the individuals concerned.

For staff grades A to F, who are due to receive their 2013/14 annual performance assessment; 13% of staff have received an outstanding box marking, 86% percent received a good box marking and 1% received a must improve box marking for the 2013/14 reporting year.
