In 2013/14, the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) did not apply the same performance management process as the rest of the Department. Performance in 2013/14 was based on points and not box markings. The minimum score required to be eligible to receive a performance related pay award was 70 points. Those scoring below 70 points received no award. The maximum score attainable was 120 points.
Of the staff issued a full appraisal in 2013/14, a performance score is currently available for 93% of people. The breakdown of these reports is shown above.
