Promotion Procedures

All managers should have a promotion review every two years. This does not mean that promotion cannot take place in the interim. However, promotion is normally gained after the promotion review session.

The procedure for conducting a promotion review is that the promotion interview panel meets after having received SOPs (Standards of Performance) from all departments. Before asking an employee for a informal interview, the interview panel meet and discuss each employee. The panel should analyze not only the employee's past record, but also his or her potential in the future. This will mean that the information on promotion possibilities when they have done all this, they can invite the employee to an informal interview.

The informal interview should aim to assess the employee's own expectations and ambitions. Having completed this session, the panel should meet privately to decide on recommendations which are finally submitted to the Board.
