Missionary staff levels and salaries will be determined by several key factors. To determine the Ministry Level, we consider scope and burden of responsibility, formal training and years of experience related to the role. New salaries are based on these factors, as well as cost-of-living factors (inflation and geography) and job performance. Please be sure to indicate when the opportunity for additional salary increases exist in the evaluation. The types of things to note include:

Annual ReviewThe annual review begins with the missionary completing the Missionary Input tab, which allows them to do a self-assessment on their performance of MTD, Ministry Duties, Ministry Skills, and Character. They will also share their accomplishments over the past year and goals for the following year. The Annual Review should be tailored to the job role. Like the previous version, the Missionary will add five to seven of their most significant ministry duties to the Review. The missionary can also select five ministry skills from a list (or add skills, not on the list) that are most necessary for their role and complete a self-assessment on those skills. The rating scales have also been changed on the new Annual Review to more simplified language. After the Missionary completes their portion, they will share it with their Supervisors and/or other leaders who will complete the Annual Review. The Supervisor should review the Missionary Input tab and then fill out the Supervisor Input tab. The Missionary will be able to see what the Supervisor entered in the Annual Review. Video Tutorials are available for Missionaries and Supervisors to view before starting their portions of the Annual Review.

Supervisors, as part of the Annual Review, you will be asked if you would like to update the Staff Level for the Employee. Please make sure that you take some time to review the new Staff Levels and follow the instructions on the Annual Review for notifying Reliant that you'd like to make a change. Please get in touch with your Program Team (What Program Team Am I On?) if you have any questions.
Job Description Template
If you do not have an updated Job Description that you have shared with Reliant, please go to Job Descriptions to submit a new one. While it is not mandatory to update your Job Description during the Annual Review season, it may make sense to do it now as you will be asked to refer to your Job Description as part of the Employee Input stage of the Review.

- Reliant carries the value that each missionary receives an annual evaluation of their progress, performance and fruitfulness. Missionaries need to receive regular constructive feedback regarding their performances. If you handle this feedback in another context, that is great. The minimum commitment of Reliant's Partner Organizations is to give solid feedback at least once a year.

Ministry Experience Evaluation
Missionaries will share with Reliant an evaluation called Missionary Evaluation of Ministry Experience. This link provides more information.
