Performance evaluation subjective discrimination
is manifest when an employer's subjective performance evaluations are used to
practice unlawful discrimination. Subjective performance evaluations
can be based on extremely subjective criteria and can undermine moral and lead
to perceptions of unfairness.
Employers that use performance evaluations that are based on subjective
criteria like: personality, attitude, appearance, demeanor, or social behavior,
could be judging employees on characteristics that are unrelated to their actual
job duties. Under the guise of a subjective performance evaluation, employers
could be practicing performance evaluation subjective discrimination based on an
employee's sex, marital status, disability, race, or other unlawful criteria. A
subjective performance evaluation can be utilized by an employer to
terminate or promote an employee for reasons that could be deemed as unlawful.

oversight. Some subjective performance evaluations permit discrimination where
bonuses, raises, and further advancement are concerned. Employees can be
victims of
