The 3 rating performance scale is a simplified evaluation tool with three levels, often labeled as “Does Not Meet Expectations,” “Meets Expectations,” and “Exceeds Expectations.” This model is straightforward and useful for organizations seeking a quick, high-level assessment of employee performance.
While it offers clarity, its limited range can make it harder to capture nuances between average and exceptional performance. It’s typically used in smaller teams or in preliminary assessments where a broader rating system may not be necessary.
