Capability management templates to address performance issues fairly and in line with UK employment law. Improve outcomes and consistency.
Includes structured improvement plans, meeting templates and review documentation. Helps employers manage performance concerns professionally while supporting employee development.
Capability refers to an employee’s ability to carry out the duties of their role to the required standard. It focuses on performance issues that arise not because of misconduct or unwillingness, but because the employee may be genuinely struggling to meet expectations despite their best efforts.
Employers have a duty to support employees in improving their performance through clear guidance, reasonable adjustments, and access to relevant development opportunities. A fair and supportive capability process should be used to explore the reasons behind underperformance and to work collaboratively with the employee to improve their skills or approach.
Having a robust and transparent capability process in place helps protect the organisation and ensures employees are treated consistently and fairly. Addressing capability issues in a timely and structured way can improve overall team performance, reduce stress and ambiguity, and foster a culture of accountability and support.
Capability templates are essential for managing a low-risk, compliant Capability process.
