BOP Program Statement 3308.11 § 6
SUPERVISOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES. Supervisors are essential to this program’s
success - STEP usually represents the student's first meaningful job experience. Supervisors
must develop on-the-job training standards and good work habits in their STEP employees.
P3308.11 10/28/08 Page 4
# Position Description. Supervisors provide a position description for each STEP position.
Each requires a Request for Personnel Action (SF-52) requesting the position be filled and a
current position description. If filling behind a resignation or termination, documentation is
included with the SF-52.
# Performance Logs and Evaluations. Supervisors maintain performance logs for STEP
employees. Students receive, at a minimum, quarterly entries for each element in the
performance log. Probationary students must receive three-month, six-month, nine-month,
and final evaluations. The final evaluation is the rating of record which is sent to COESD for
the student’s performance file.
When the next rating period begins, the student acknowledges the new set of standards. After a
successful probation, the new non-probationary period ends on March 31 (as it does for all GS
non-probationary employees).
