Digital performance review

The annual performance review will be digitalised by 2025. This means that all steps relating to the yearly performance review between line managers and employees, which were previously conducted on paper, will be digitalised in future. This applies to preparing for the meeting, completing the annual performance review form and the signature process.

In a first step, we are introducing the new digital review at selected locations in Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Germany. The remaining locations will conduct the 2025 performance review on paper as before. You can find out from your manager or local HR whether your review will be conducted digitally or on paper.

On this page you will find all the information on how to log in to the digital platform if your review will be conducted digitally and you do not have a work computer. If you have any questions or problems (e.g. lost access data or forgotten password), please contact your line manager or your local HR.

If your performance review is being conducted on paper, the documents in the 'Preparation' section are the most important for you.

This is how the digital performance review process works

Preparation

To prepare for the interview, you can assess yourself and your manager. The self-assessment is completely voluntary. The assessment of your manager, on the other hand, is mandatory. However, it is up to you whether you complete the assessment digitally in advance. However, you should give your manager feedback based on the assessment criteria at the performance review meeting at the latest.

The guideline will help you prepare for the interview. You can also find various translations of the performance review form here:
