Who provides input for an evaluation in the JEPES?

In the Junior Enlisted Performance Evaluation System (JEPES), the evaluation process involves a multi-faceted approach to ensure a comprehensive and fair assessment of a junior enlisted member's performance. Input for an evaluation is gathered from a variety of sources to capture different perspectives on the individual's work, contributions, and areas for improvement.

The inclusion of supervisors, peers, and self-assessments allows for a well-rounded evaluation. Supervisors provide insight based on direct observation and expectations for performance within the operational context. Peer input reflects collaboration and teamwork, which are essential in military environments where collective success is vital. Self-assessments encourage individuals to reflect on their performance and demonstrate self-awareness, accountability, and personal growth. By considering inputs from these three sources, the evaluation process becomes more equitable and thorough, ultimately leading to better outcomes for both the individual and the organization.

Other options suggest limited or specific sources of input, which would not adequately reflect the collaborative nature of military assessments. Using a diverse range of perspectives ensures that evaluations are not only accurate but also conducive to the development of junior enlisted members.
