Performance Assessment and Appeal
Xingtong Shipping has built a strategy-oriented performance management system. It has formulated the Shore-based Performance
Management System and utilizes tools such as the Balanced Scorecard and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to establish an eval-
uation system focusing on departmental performance. Departmental performance bonuses are linked to the Company's operating
results, creating a mechanism that ties employee compensation to corporate performance.
Performance assessments are primarily conducted on a monthly cycle. Employees complete self-evaluations for the previous
month and formulate plans for the current month at the beginning of each month. These are evaluated step by step by department
heads and senior managers, with scores directly linked to monthly performance pay. Simultaneously, the Company has formulated
an annual comprehensive evaluation plan that integrates monthly performance, year-end performance, and 360-degree feedback
to comprehensively assess employees' value contribution and growth.
Regarding performance feedback and appeals, the Company integrates two-way communication throughout the entire assessment
process. The Human Resources Department urges department managers to conduct performance feedback sessions quarterly,
New Employee Forum providing employees with assessment results and the rationale behind them, jointly analyzing shortcomings, and formulating im-
provement plans. If employees have questions about their assessment results, they can communicate and provide feedback on the
spot. The system also clearly defines an appeal mechanism to ensure employees' concerns are objectively addressed, promoting
continuous optimization of performance management through closed-loop communication.
