arkipäiväisen

Arkipäiväisen refers to an annual review and yearly performance evaluation conducted for civilian employees in Finland. It is a tradition where employees receive a review of their performance and work habits from the previous year, typically around the turn of the year.

The term 'arkipäiväinen' translates to 'daily routine' or 'day-to-day' in English, which implies the focus on evaluating employee performance on a daily basis. However, the actual process often involves a broader assessment of an employee's work habits and achievements over the past year.

During an Arkipäiväisen review, an employee's performance is discussed with their supervisor or manager. The review may cover various aspects such as job responsibilities, work habits, achievements, and areas for improvement. The purpose of an Arkipäiväisen review is to provide employees with feedback on their performance and to align their goals with the organization's objectives.

In Finnish work culture, Arkipäiväisen is considered an essential part of the performance management system. It helps to improve communication between employees and their supervisors, and to set realistic goals for the coming year. As part of the review process, employee performance is usually evaluated using a standardized performance review form. The outcome of the review can have an impact on employee promotions, salary increases, or other benefits.
