While certain components of a performance evaluation, such as disputed facts <br />reported to be incomplete or inaccurate are challengeable, other performance <br />evaluation data, including subjective assessments, are not. <br />2. Pay increases or lack thereof; and <br />3. Merit pay awards. <br />The above list is not meant to be all inclusive or exhaustive. <br />80
