Rating - Less Than 120 Days in a Covered Position Sample Clauses

Rating - Less Than 120 Days in a Covered Position. Employees who are serving in covered positions on the last day of the appraisal cycle, but who are unrateable because they have not served for at least 120 days during the appraisal cycle in a covered position (or have not received an interim rating) must be given a rating of record in accordance with the provisions of this Article as soon as they have served the minimum period. An employee may be unrateable because of entry into a covered position during the last 119 days of the appraisal cycle; time in a non-pay status; long-term training; service on a Federally sponsored program such as an IPA or President’s Executive Exchange assignment for which appraisal information is not available; the employee’s supervisor leaving the agency where no other higher level supervisor can reasonably appraise the employee’s performance; service on detail to another Federal agency for which performance appraisal information is not available; or approved absence creditable under appropriate regulations.
