Professional staff performance ratings grouped by various demographics
Tom Saunders made this Official Information request to University of Auckland
Response to this request is delayed. By law, University of Auckland should normally have responded promptly and by (details and exceptions)
From: Tom Saunders
Tēnā koutou,
I’m interested in how the University is fulfilling its commitments to fairness, respect, wellbeing, and openness, as articulated in Taumata Teitei. One way to measure the application of these values is by examining how staff are assessed for their performance, and in particular, if there are any differences in how staff from different backgrounds are being assessed and rewarded. The University’s Tupu performance review system assigns a rating or score to each professional staff member based on their manager’s perception of their performance, and I’m interested in how these scores vary across gender, ethnicity, and faculty/service division.
For each Tupu assessment year, could you please provide the total number of staff who received each score for their end of year review for each professional staff pay band (B-H), and could you please group by gender and ethnicity, and also by faculty/service division.
Please also explain any relevant caveats that should be kept in mind when analysing or interpreting this information.
Please provide this information in an accessible spreadsheet format (.csv or .xlsx).
If any part of my request is unclear, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Ngā mihi,
Tom

Dear Tom,
I refer to your two requests of 13 November 2024, which we have conflated
into a single request, for information related to professional staff
performance ratings grouped by various demographics, for professional
staff pay bands (B-L).
As consultations necessary to make a decision on your request are such
that a response cannot reasonably be given within the original time limit,
the University has extended the time limit for your request by 25 working
days under section 15A(1)(b) of the OIA. The new maximum time limit for
the University’s response is 6 February 2025 (this response date takes
into account the summer holiday period of 25 December to 15 January
inclusive, which are not counted as ‘working days’); we will respond to
your request as soon as reasonably practicable.
For more information regarding the summer holiday period please refer to
the ‘Processing Requirements’ section (pages 16-17) of the Ombudsman’s
guide [1]The OIA for Ministers and agencies.
You have the right to make a complaint to an Ombudsman if you are
dissatisfied with this extension.
Yours sincerely,
Farleigh Quinlivan
