/EINPresswire.com/ Sky Lakes Medical Center has selected CRG emPerform™ to simplify employee appraisals and automate their pay-for-performance processes. Sky Lakes Medical Center is a community-owned internationally accredited healthcare organization based in Klamath Falls, Oregon, and is well known for its patient-centric culture. Using emPerform, Sky Lakes plans to properly identify and reward employee performance to reinforce this commitment to patient care.
Prior to implementing emPerform, Sky Lakes relied on a paper-based employee evaluation system. “We had many limitations using a paper-based system,” said Alan Caldwell, Director of Human Resources for Sky Lakes Medical Center. “Sending paper copies, manually compiling scores, retrieving evaluations and ranking employees was complicated, time-consuming, and unreliable. We needed a streamlined electronic method of conducting evaluations that would help us to accurately rank our employees and properly reward high performers.”
Sky Lakes Medical Center got a glimpse of emPerform’s software solution at the 2011 ASHHRA Conference in Phoenix, Arizona. The medical center’s delegation evaluated four other vendors and selected emPerform over the rest for its ease of use, value, and ability to close the gap between employee performance and compensation. “The initial reaction to emPerform has been very good,” said Alan. “Employees appreciate a fast and simple evaluation process and managers and HR will benefit from having more control over performance data.”
CRG emPerform comes standard with compensation management functionality that automates pay-for-performance decisions. Performance data from emPerform’s online appraisal forms can be used for succession planning, goal setting, and for fostering a high-performing talent base by properly recognizing and rewarding employee performance. Compensation management functionality is included with emPerform’s online software suite at no additional cost to the user.
