shall endeavor to achieve a reasonable degree of uniformity in the applica-
tion of Agency suitability standards and also a reasonable consistency in
the handling of such cases. It is emphasized that the Board is not intended
to relieve Agency supervisors of their inherent supervisory responsibility
for evaluating either the work performance or on-the-job behavior of their
employees, but is intended to advise the Director of Personnel in the matter
of resolving questions of off-the-job conduct and general suitability, for
which supervisors cannot usually be held accountable.
3. In order that the Personnel Evaluation Board may function as intended,
it is essential that the Director of Personnel be informed of all employee
cases in which there is any question of the individual's suitability for con-
tinued Agency employment so that, if he deems it appropriate, he may refer
such cases for consideration by the Board. Consequently, each'of the
addressees are directed to brin to the attention of the Director of Personnel
(with concurrent notificatio to the Deputy Director
concerned if not originated by suc cases or which the are aware
which may come to their attention.
4I.. In the course of its review of cases which may be. referred to it by
the Director of Personnel) the Personnel Evaluation Board shall be attentive
to instances of supervisory failure, especially failure to report a problem
situation or to take such timely and effective disciplinary action as may lie
within the authority of the responsible supervisor. If in the opinion of the
Director of Personnel such action is warranted, reports and recommendations
for corrective action shall be forwarded to me.
