Document background
This Agile Performance Review agreement is designed for organizations operating under Austrian jurisdiction that implement agile methodologies in their work processes. It becomes relevant when traditional annual performance reviews need to be adapted to an agile working environment, providing a legally compliant framework for more frequent, iterative performance assessments. The document addresses key requirements under Austrian employment law, including works council rights, data protection obligations, and employee participation requirements. It includes provisions for sprint-based evaluations, peer feedback mechanisms, and continuous improvement tracking, while ensuring alignment with both agile principles and Austrian legal standards. This agreement is particularly crucial for organizations transitioning to agile methodologies or those seeking to formalize their agile performance review processes within the Austrian legal context.
