Thank you, Madam Chair. An ePerformance module is a tool that an employee and an employer can use when they are assessing the performance. This in no way, shape or form should take away from two people talking about progresses, and steps they can take to improve performance and start talking about where they want to go in the future by way of succession. But it does give us a way to formalize them in a standard document that we can use and track over time and compare to each other over time.

When we are talking about a paper system, often it was hard to track these over time to ensure that there was consistency. This system will also give us some indication as to how many are being done and how often, so that we can, as managers in the departments, go out and encourage their staff to actually complete these with their supervisors. For more of the specifics I will pass it to my deputy, Ms. Bassi-Kellett.
