Why Keeping Employee Notes Matters

Develop rapport & instill a sense of belonging

Earn trust through accountability

Improve & streamline the performance review process

Every organization has different needs, but here are the most common types of manager notes to keep in an employee file:

Types of Notes to Keep in Employee Records

  • Performance reviews and feedback from managers
  • Disciplinary actions or warnings distributed
  • Accomplishments and awards received
  • Training or certifications obtained  
  • Attendance records and absences
  • Specific project details or responsibilities
  • Goals and objectives agreed upon during performance planning
  • Professional development plans or aspirations
  • Important conversations or agreements with the employee

Documenting employee performance and conduct in a consistent format will keep the information organized so it can be found and used in the future. 

That’s why we recommend using our copy-and-paste templates. They can be dropped into a Word or Google Doc, or in any free-form text box on your digital employee record.
