Document background
This Poor Performance Review document is essential for organizations operating in the Netherlands when formal documentation of employee performance issues is required. It should be used when informal performance discussions have not led to sufficient improvement and a structured approach becomes necessary. The document complies with Dutch employment law, including the Dutch Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetboek), Works Council Act, and GDPR requirements. It includes detailed performance issues, specific improvement objectives, support measures, and timelines, while ensuring fair treatment and proper documentation. The document serves as both a legal safeguard and a development tool, potentially forming part of the documentation required for any future employment decisions.
