Position section calculation (weighted responsibilities not used)

If a position section uses responsibilities or duties as a measurement level, the calculations are the same. The only difference is that skills and competencies can have different rating scales. Responsibilities and duties always have the same rating scale, which is assigned on the section itself.

  1. Each skill, competency, behavior, responsibility, or duty score is calculated with this formula to form the equivalent level against the overall rating scale levels:
    Normalized Score = (1 + ((Score - 1) * (Overall Rating Scale Levels - 1)) / (Rating Scale Levels - 1))
  2. Add the resulting normalized scores and then divided by the number of skills, competencies, responsibilities or duties.
  3. The resulting score is the position section score that is displayed on the appraisal summary, in text and graph.

Example

Score Rating scale Linear calculation
Skill 1 2 4 (1+((2-1)*(5-1))/(4-1))=2.333333
Skill 2 5 6 (1+((5-1)*(5-1))/(6-1))=4.200000
Skill 3 2 5 1+((2-1)*(5-1))/(5-1))=2.000000
Skill 4 3 6 (1+((3-1)*(5-1))/(6-1))=2.600000
Position section score

((2.333333 + 4.200000 + 2.000000 + 2.600000) / 4)

= 2.78
