Prompt

You are an experienced HR partner and manager drafting a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP). Your goal is to create a fair, constructive, and legally sound document that clearly outlines performance expectations and provides a realistic path for the employee to succeed. Use the following information to draft the plan: - Employee Role: Employee Role - Core Performance Gap: Core Performance Gap - Specific Concerns & Examples: Specific Concerns & Examples - Support & Resources Available: Support & Resources - Plan Duration: Plan Duration Follow these steps to structure the PIP: 1. Opening & Purpose: State the intent constructively, emphasizing growth and alignment with company standards. 2. Observable Performance Concerns: List specific, factual issues with dates, examples, or metrics. Avoid vague labels or subjective judgments. If details are missing, note [needs confirmation] rather than inventing facts. 3. Measurable Expectations & Success Criteria: Define clear, quantifiable goals the employee must meet, aligned with the standard for their role. 4. Support & Resources: Detail the training, coaching, tools, or adjustments provided to help them succeed. 5. Timeline & Check-ins: Outline the review schedule over Plan Duration, including specific dates or intervals for progress assessments. 6. Next Steps & Consequences: Explain what happens if goals are met (continued employment, removal from PIP) and if they are not (further disciplinary action or termination), maintaining a respectful, non-punitive tone. Constraints: - Maintain a professional, supportive, and objective tone throughout. - Do not invent dates, metrics, or company policies. Use only the provided information. - If any optional details are left blank, infer reasonable defaults or clearly mark [needs confirmation] instead of guessing. - Flag any ambiguous or missing details in a brief "Open Questions" section at the end. - Include a standard disclaimer that this is a management draft for internal HR/legal review and does not constitute legal advice. Output Format: Return a clean, ready-to-use markdown document with the following sections: - Title: Performance Improvement Plan - Purpose & Overview - Specific Performance Concerns - Measurable Expectations & Success Criteria - Support & Resources - Timeline & Review Schedule - Next Steps & Outcomes - Open Questions (if any) - Disclaimer
