Article 14 of Decree of 1979 concerning the Civil Service Regulations

The immediate supervisor shall assess the competence of the employees he supervises who hold posts in the general, assistant technical, and auxiliary job groups for each completed Gregorian year, assigning a grade of excellent, very good, good, or poor. He shall then submit it to the next person in the chain of responsibility for his opinion. If the opinions of the two supervisors differ, and also if there is no supervisor above the immediate supervisor, the report shall be submitted to the Personnel Affairs Committee to assess competence. Reports shall be final except for competence reports graded poor. The Civil Service Council shall establish the rules and bases of assessment and the procedures and time limits necessary therefor, and shall specify the assessment year, as an exception to assessment for a Gregorian year, for posts whose nature or circumstances so require. As for holders of leadership posts, the Civil Service Council shall establish a special system containing the rules, bases, procedures, and time limits for their assessment and the effects arising from that assessment. The competent Minister shall prepare a performance assessment report for each of them. In entities whose service affairs are regulated by special laws, the competent Minister may, if those laws contain no performance assessment provisions, issue a decision, after the approval of the Civil Service Council, containing the rules, bases, and time limits for performance assessment, the procedures necessary therefor, the mechanism for notification of that assessment, and the rules and procedures for grievances against it. )2(
